Exporting trade details to an excel file automatically

[pandyav]

Not sure if anyone else tried to do this before but I'd like to import all of my trade execution details automatically to an excel file with the click of a mouse. I know I can right click on trades tab and export the data to excel but what I would like to do is to create a file once and update it automatically every night only with the new trades. This means I won't have to export the grid everyday.

Any thoughts?

pandyav,

This is certainly possible using .NET however would be unsupported. All trade data is stored in a SQL database which is accessible in My Documents / NinjaTrader / db.

If you had some custom application or indicator built it could update with only new trades.

Please let me know if I may assist further.

Sorry if I missed this, but does it mean that I need to know .net and SQL to accomplish what I am trying to do?
Thanks.

pandayav,

If you wanted to access the SQL database and write an application to update a trade log then yes. If you are using automated strategies only you can have them individually write their trade data to .csv files.

Please let me know if I may assist further.
