MICRO NYSE FANG+™ Index Futures

[TJRemington]

I tried to set-up the symbol for the above FANG future @ ICE US exchange but can't get it to work ("unknown instrument "FNG 12-21")
is there anybody who is currently working with that future contract in Ninjatrader ?

Hello TJRemington,

I'm not familiar with this futures instrument. To what broker/data feed do you connect in the NinjaTrader platform? Are you sure the broker/data feed provider supports data for this futures instrument?

Are you able to load data for other ICE futures that are present by default in NinjaTrader?

[TJRemington]

I am connected with CQG

FANG future symbol can be found on:

https://www.cqg.com/partners/exchanges/tradable-symbols

Symbol: FNG (ICE US)

in Ninjatrader I do get data for the Long Gilt future (Symbol: R) which is ICE Europe though but still ICE

is ICE US = former NYBOT ?

Thanks

Do you have your trading account with Amp Futures? If not, please tell me at what broker you have your trading account.

When you connect to CQG (or NinjaTrader Continuum) in the NinjaTrader platform, historical data is loaded from our historical data servers which don't include this instrument.

Yes, the Nybot exchange was taken over by ICE.

AMP futures is my broker account yes,

Do you update the instruments in your database on a regular basis?

[NinjaTrader_Jason]

Did Amp Futures inform realtime data for this instrument is included for your live account connection?

We do instrument updates if there are any instrument changes or to add new instruments.

No, i haven't asked AMP yet.
I just use it on a web-based TA platform and thought I could use it in Ninjatrader instead
FANG stocks are popular instruments so a future contract on them makes sense

If not enabled for your live account connection, you will not receive any realtime data. I suggest to check with Amp Futures first if you are enabled for this futures instrument.
