• Who are you connected to? This is displayed in green on lower left corner of the Control Center window.
• Who is your broker?
• What instrument symbol (and expiry if applicable) have you selected? For example, ES 12-20, AAPL, EURUSD, etc.
• (For a chart) what interval is selected? For example, 5 minute, 1 day, 2000 volume, 4 Renko, etc.
• Do you receive an error on screen? Are there errors on the Log tab of the Control Center? If so, what do these errors report?

Hello teafortwo,

Thank you for your post.

First, I see that you're using a much older version of NinjaTrader 8. To update NinjaTrader, please follow the steps below:

• First, copy your license key from NinjaTrader under Help> License Key then exit NinjaTrader
• Click on the link: https://ninjatrader.com/PlatformDirect
• Enter your license key and press Submit
• Select 'NinjaTrader 8'
• Select 'Download'
• Critical: Before running the installer, ensure NinjaTrader is closed.

To answer your question about why you are not receiving data for the stocks symbol ADDS, it is because the NinjaTrader Continuum connection does not support equities (stock) instruments, only futures and indices. Likewise, NinjaTrader Brokerage is a futures broker, and you would not be able to trade equities (stocks) with your NinjaTrader Brokerage account. To receive data for this instrument, you must establish a connection to a provider that supports equities. I have provided a link to 'Data by Provider' section of our help guide below;

Please let us know if we may assist you any further.
