Hello Oleg,
Thank you for your message.
Are you currently connected to IQFeed on your NinjaTrader 8 platform? If not, is it available on the list of Available Connections in the Control Center > Connections > configure window?
In regards to the specific instrument itself, do you know the symbol for this instrument?

Hello Oleg S.
Thank you for your repsonse.
While spreads are not supported in NinjaTrader 8 by default, an indicator is publicly available on our NinjaTrader Ecosystem website that will allow you to view the spread for two contracts on one Chart. From there, you will need to submit each order manually so long as IQFeed and your broker support it:- https://ninjatraderecosystem.com/use...load/spread-2/

Here is a basic guideline of how to import NinjaScript add-ons in NinjaTrader 8:
Note — To import NinjaScripts you will need the original .zip file.
To Import:- Download the NinjaScripts to your desktop, keep them in the compressed .zip file.
- From the Control Center window select the menu Tools > Import > NinjaScript Add-on...
- Select the downloaded .zip file
- NinjaTrader will then confirm if the import has been successful.
Critical - Specifically for some NinjaScripts, it will prompt that you are running newer versions of @SMA, @EMA, etc. and ask if you want to replace, press 'No'
Once installed, you may add the indicator to a chart by:- Right-click your chart > Indicators... > Select the Indicator from the 'Available' list on the left > Add > OK
Here is a short video demonstration of the import process:

I don't need an indicator showing the difference between two futures. Calendar futures spread is a separate instrument that has its own bid, ask, traded volume, and so on. Please tell me how to create a custom chart based on this data from IQFeed in Ninjatrader 8?

Hello Oleg S.
Thank you for your response.
Unfortunately, it will not be possible to add these instruments in Ninjatrader 8 as they are not supported. The indicator above should help you view these instruments as a workaround since they are not supported in the platform currently.
Please let me know if you have any additional questions.

Hello shufu852,
Thank you for your message
From your screenshot, you are viewing CL 12-22 which is not available yet. The furthest any contract starts will be 6 months before its expiration, and your data provider may not support any data for it until even closer to its expiration.
In other words, you will need to test to see if your data provider supports contracts that are not too far away and are not being recorded yet.
Please let me know if you have any additional questions.
