NinjaTrader Having trouble downloading historical data

[Austiner87]

Hi NT8,

I am trying to download previous years historical data. Please see attached, it gives me an error. I have the instrument loaded into my instrument lists as well. I can confirm I am connected to my Demo account when getting this message. Please help, thank you!

Hello Austiner87,

Thank you for your post.

As your post did not pertain to NinjaScript Development, I have moved it to a more appropriate forum.

Market Replay data would only be available for the past 90 days. You would be able to download regular historical data for that date, but Market Replay would not be expected to be available.

Please let us know if we may be of further assistance to you.

Hello Austiner87,

Thank you for your reply.

Market Replay data holds the exact sequence level I and Level II (market depth) data and must be recorded by or downloaded through NinjaTrader, and only the most recent 90 days will be available as I mentioned previously.

Historical tick data can be used to playback chart data (without market depth). The granularity and accuracy of historical mode will be dependent on your data provider.

Please let us know if we may be of further assistance to you.
