Hello levikNT,

Yes, this can be done with a BarsRequest. Below is a link to the help guide on BarsRequest which includes an example.

Also, below is a link to a working sample.

Just as a tip, the NinjaTrader 8 section of the forums can be found below.

Sure would be nice to have a BarsRequest for Bid/Ask data, especially when Tick Replay and AddDataSeries is over-kill.

Hi CriticalTrader,

Are you referring to the MarketDataType property of the BarsPeriod?

This allows you to set Ask, Bid, or Last as the market data type when creating the bars request.

If this is not what you are referring to, can you elaborate on what you are trying to do?

Dah...apparently I am asking that. Sorry... for some reason I missed that option.
Thank you.
