combinations of 2 data providers

[hellboy78]

Hello.
I would need to combine 2 datas provider for a market scanner I wanna program for my own trading options. (USA stock options only)

first of all I would need all tick datas, real time volume for volume profile, like iqfeed can provide (maybe another provider can do the same)

then I will need some datas from Interactivebrokers, cause data feed provider normally doesn't provide this, like
earning date - stock sector - industry - category

is it possible to put datas in combination?

or exist a data feed provider that can give all datas included?

Hello hellboy78,

Thanks for posting.

NinjaTrader can only pull data for an instrument type (stockes, futures, etc.) from one connection at a a time, so this wouldn't be possible. I'm not familiar with any way to access the other properties you mentioned (earning date, stock sector, industry, category) in NinjaTrader, but if you look up a stock the instrument editor (Control Center > Tools > Instruments), you may view and edit its properties there.

Below is a link with more information:

Please let me know if I may be of further assistance.

well, all datas will come into market screener, using API (from interactivebroker)

you mean I have to edit manually each stock?

I point out the instrument editor just so that you may view the available properties of the instrument. There are no properties by the name of earning date, stock sector, industry, or category.

Please let me know if I may be of further assistance.

ok, I understood, so InteractveBrokers infos cannot arrive to ninjatrader if I use interactivebrokers as data provider.
the only solution is to use one data feed only
and forget about (earning date, stock sector, industry, category)

now it's clear.

also means that I cannot see options volume, option implied volatility, into NT8 ? even if data feed provider give that?
