Default $TICK data from Tradestation.

I am getting data from Tradestation and have ran into a snag when trying to get real-time $TICK data into NT. NT support tells me that $TICK data, as well as $TRIN, $INDU, and NYSE internals "are currently not supported at this time, but it is on a list of improvements for future versions".

I have been able to import historical $TICK data into NT, but that does not help with market replay. I was curious if anybody has found a workaround for this issue and or when this issue is expected to be resolved?

Thanks

Market Replay does not work in terms of imported data. Importing data will only allow you to chart the instrument. To replay an instrument you actually have to record a replay file in real-time before you can replay it.

I was aware that you could not replay historical data and I should have made my question more clear.

If there is one, does anybody know of a workaround for the Tradestation $Tick issue?

Thanks

You can try adding the instruments to your Instrument Manager. Not sure if you can map to TS though.
