help adding kospi futures chart using IB

[big_leon]

I find it difficult to add the kospi futures in ninja trader 8. I'm using interactive brokers and have "K200" in the category.

How do I add this custom futures symbol for NT 8?

Hello big_leon,

NinjaTrader comes pre-loaded with the most commonly traded instruments. Should you wish to add an instrument to your database that is not located in the pre-loaded 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. Please enter the symbol you enter in TWS as symbol map in the Interactive Brokers row which would be K200. Set Exchange to Kse. Make sure to set Currency to Korean Won as well.
- 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.
