RTY past data

[pdcarpen]

How do I get past weeks and days data on the RTY chart? Or is it really just going to give us starting today with no historical data with it? thanks for the help.

Hello pdcarpen,

Thank you for your post.

There is no prior data on the historical data servers before Sunday for the RTY.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Hello pdcarpen,

OK, well, please note that indicators on RTY daily, weekly, and monthly charts are useless because there is not enough data. And it will take years for adequate monthly charts to develop. Other data providers are using the data from TF files and building RTY files from that. It's pretty obvious how to do that.

So a suggestion: how about doing that for NinjaTrader? Or rather for your customers?

Hello PhilT,

Thank you for your response.

The NinjaTrader platform itself will not merge futures instruments for the historical data requests. Most providers will not supplement the historical data for TF either.

However, you can export the TF historical data manually and then edit the file name to the RTY and import it as the RTY historical. Information on importing and exporting in NinjaTrader can be found at the following links:
