For Kinetick and IQFeed the symbol mapping is missing the @ symbol in front of the symbol mapping.

To resolve this in NinjaTrader 7, follow the steps below.
Go to Tools> Instrument Manager
Under Available Master Instruments select the RTY and press Edit
Select the Misc tab
Under Symbol Mapping for Kinetick and IQFeed set the mapping to: @RTY

To resolve this in NinjaTrader 8, restart to pull the update.
