Default Crude Mini's

What are the available mini crude contracts available to Zen Fire users (using Amp brokerage) and where can I find the symbol list and rollover dates?

There is the CL and QM.

You can find information here:

Thanks Jessica, I am familiar with the CME specs site. The symbol QM is in my master instrument list (albeit with extemely thin volume), but I cannot seem to change the expiry month. Is the 08-08 the correct front month?

Also, CL is missing from the master list and all attempts to re-install it have failed. Perhaps I am doing it incorrectly. If you could direct me to properly populate the list with the CL symbol I will give it another shot before I trouble you with a data test.

Thanks!

The QM uses the 07-08, 08-08 and 09-08 expiry months. You can find instructions to change expiry months at the link below.

Please go to Tools-->Options-->Misc-tab and click Reset Instruments. Check if the CL is listed again in the Instrument Manager.

You can reset your instrument list by going to Tools--> Options--> Misc--> Reset Instruments. This will restore all instruments to default so make note of any instruments you may have made changes to.

Not to be picky, but all that's listed under the Tools-->Options-->Misc tab is reset or repair DB. I reset DB previously and still no CL.

I hope I'm not driving you crazy.

Could you please upgrade to our latest production release, NinjaTrader 6.5.1000.4, which does have the Reset Instruments button under Tools-->Options-->Misc-tab. You can download this version at the link below.
