Embarrassingly amateur question, "How do you convert free Yahoo daily historical to the format NinjaTrader requires?"
Or rather, how do you do it without having to edit a few thousand lines (by hand)?
I could, but I'd rather not.
The most I've done is:
Read http://www.ninjatrader-support.com/H...de.html?Import.
Used excel to tidy up the date and add ";" columns. Copy and paste to a .txt or save it as a .txt.
Unfortunately the .txt ends up with tabs.
Whats the best way to do this.
Regards,
Dane
P.S.: I am ashamed I don't know how to write a program to format a simple .txt file. This is unbelievable to me. Where did I go wrong in my studies? Or am I trying to reinvent the wheel when there are simpler ways, perhaps different file conversions using programs already on my PC? Or are both answers more complex than needed? Sigh
