Can't find chart for gold

[MamaKB]

I want to trade gold/XAU on NT, I can find only MCG 02-25 under "micros", but that is not the right chart. I'm told that I need to use MCG1, but I don't have that chart anywhere. HELP! Good trades are being missed! :/ Thank U in advance!

Hello MamaKB,

Thank you for the message.

I am not sure what instrument you are referring to either.

Please click the link below for a list of the Futures Instruments supported by NinjaTrader Brokerage:

• Available Instruments and their Info with NinjaTrader Brokerage

If you are trying to trade a Forex Pair, you would have to subscribe to a Forex provider and then connect to that within the platform as well:

• Data by Provider
• Connection Guides

If you are still not sure, use Google, Bing, or your favorite search engine to find more information and a more specific name so we can maybe help you find it.

Please let us know if we may provide any further assistance.

Hello again

Thank you for quick reply!

I'm no expert, so I'm not sure what information you need to help me further. I want to trade CG micros on my apex funded account via rithmic/Ninjatrader. I have attached the info on the instrument (chart) from your link. As well as a screenshot of that chart in NinjaTrader - which seems wrong.

Hello MamaKB

Thank you for the update.

You will want to reach out to Apex's support team for further help setting up the account with them and ensuring that it is enabled for real-time data on the instruments you want to trade.

Then, you would set up a chart using the Instrument Symbols listed in my last message.

• Available Instruments and their Info with NinjaTrader Brokerage
• CG and MCG is INCORRECT. GC and MGC would be the correct gold variations
  •

Hello Everyone,

Thank you for the updates.

For all users, you would want to make sure the account you are connecting to is enabled for real-time market data on the Exchanges and instruments you want to trade.

• Once you reach out to your Evaluation Provider and they confirm the account is Active and that the Real-time data for those instruments is active and ready to go, then you are ready to chart them in NinjaTrader

From re-reading the initial message and the most recent updates, part of the confusion is simply from different people and providers providing the Instrument and Contract in different ways.

As for finding an instrument within NinjaTrader, please see the picture below for more specific steps on how to find them:

• Available Instruments and their Info with NinjaTrader Brokerage
  • 

Finally, make sure you connect to the account that is providing your real-time data first.

• Then, once everything is connected and set up, the chart should load in and allow you to trade.

Please let us know if we may provide any further assistance.

To trade gold/XAU on NinjaTrader, you need the MCG1 micro gold futures contract. If you can’t find it, ensure that your data provider is set up correctly and add the MCG1 contract through the "Instrument Manager." If it's still missing, try refreshing your data feed or restarting NinjaTrader.
