Downloading historical data - can't access older futures
When I go to download historical data, I can only do so for current futures, or certain expired futures that I've used in the past. If I want to access futures data further back, how do I add them to the selection for historical data download?
Thanks!Tags: None

Hello out of the money,
Thank you for your note.
You will first need to be connected to a Data Feed provider. Please note that the available data will depend on who you are connected to.
Below I have included a link to our NinjaTrader Help Guide on manually downloading Historical Data:Spencer F.NinjaTrader Customer Service

I have been able to replicate the steps in the guide, but the issue has been which futures are available. I am connected to a data feed, but in the 'Load' tab, there aren't many futures available to me in the 'Instrument' dropdown. How do I add other futures to the dropdown?

I'll expand this to include stocks too, I'd love to know how to add stocks to the available instruments for downloading historical data

Hello out of the money,
Thank you for your note.
So that I may better assist, who are you connected to?
In regards to the drop down menu you may adjust the Instruments lists to your liking by using the Instruments List window under the Control Center > Tools > Instrument Lists.
You may also type directing in the Instrument Selector to use the quick search function to search the entire NinjaTrader database.

Hello out of the money,
Thank you for your post.
Below I have included a short video explanation:Note that I did use the ES, however the MES will function just the same.
If you are still experiencing the same after following along with the video then please send me your log and trace files so that I may look into what occurred.
You can do this by going to the Control Center-> Help-> Email Support
Ensuring 'Log and Trace Files' is checked will include these files. This is checked by default.
Please provide the following in the body of the email: Forum Post 03429698 ATTN Spencer F.

That worked, thank you! I guess I just needed to download first before it became available for export.
