Trading ASX exchange on NT?

[Coldray]

Hi, I would like to trade the ASX exchange via NT. I saw that this might be possible by linking IB to NT? Is this easily enough to set up if so? When set up will i just use all the NT functions (buy/sell/stop loss etc) and it's just linked to my IB fund account?

Hello Coldray,

Yes, you can trade your Interactive Brokers account in the NinjaTrader platform. The following link will take you to a page that details the steps required for creating a connection to Interactive Brokers as well as specific connection configuration information:

Please note that there are no ASX stocks present by default in the NinjaTrader platform. NinjaTrader comes preloaded with the most commonly traded instruments. Should you wish to add an instrument to your database that is not located in the preloaded lists, please follow these steps:

• Navigate to the Control Center > Tools > Instruments window.
• Left-click on the ‘add’ button that appears near the lower right-hand corner of the Instruments window.
• Enter instrument-specific symbol mapping, exchanges, and other information on the Instrument editor that appears. This information will largely depend on your broker or data feed provider’s specific settings regarding the instrument in question.
• Left-click the OK button once each field has been filled out with correct information.

The new instrument has now been created in your database. Should you wish to add this instrument to an instrument list:

• Navigate to the Control Center > Tools > Instruments Lists window.
• Left-click to select the instrument list that you wish to add this instrument to in the left panel, then left-click on the ‘add’ button at the bottom of the right-hand panel.
• Type the name and (if applicable) front month of your instrument in the search field that appears. Press the Enter button on your keyboard to confirm this change.
• Left-click the OK button to close the Instrument Lists window.

Your new instrument is now added to the instrument list of your choice.

In addition, you would need to lease a license key or purchase the lifetime license key in order to trade live with Interactive Brokers in the NinjaTrader platform.
