Hello Kay Wai,

You can delete historical data per instrument at Control Center-->Tools-->Historical Data. Double click 'Historical' and then right click the instrument and select Remove.

Unfortunately there is no function to delete historical data for all options instruments in one go.

Hi Jason,

Thank you for your reply.

I was wondering if I deleted it directly from the following folder : Documents\NinjaTrader 8\db\minute , would it affect the rest of the data that I have?

Hello kaywai,

Thank you for using NinjaTrader.

No, so long as NinjaTrader is shut down as you delete these files, you can remove historical data in bulk from the Documents/NinjaTrader 8/db 'minute, 'tick', and 'day' folders. Any data you pull up on your charts will automatically be downloaded to these folders as needed. Be sure not to delete or change any other files in this folder and other NinjaTrader 8 folders to avoid unexpected issues.

Please let us know if you have any additional questions.
