I have IB account and downloaded NT however it does not include IB option under connections? How this can be corrected?

Hello futuresplayer,

Thank you for your post.

There were a few reports of an unexpected disconnect throughout the night. The issue seems to have been resolved at this time.

I will report this to our development team to let them know of the issue.

Please let me know if I may be of further assistance.

NT does not include IB option

Thank you for reply but this seems to be a different issue. I downloaded NT for simulated trading and it does not include IB under the "Account connection set up".

Hello futuresplayer,

Have you created your IB connection within NinjaTrader at this time. If you have not I have provided a link below to our Connection Guide that will assist you with creating this connection.

Keep in mind you must have IB Standalone TWS 895.3 installed with the current release of NinjaTrader. If you do not have this version installed you may install the correct version at the link I provided above.

Please let me know if I may be of further assistance.

Downloaded NT is for simulated account and does not have IB option. Please see attached.

Hello futuresplayer,

Yes, you will need to click on Add and go through the steps to create the IB connection within NinjaTrader. The link I provided in the previous post provides steps required and also includes a great video.

After you have completed createing your connection it will be available when going to File-->Connect

Please let me know if you are able to connect after creating your connection.

Christopher,

I finally figured out what happened. Several months I downloaded NT from one of the FOREX brokers and it did not included IB in the drop down list. I added the key sent me with the latest version and all other feeds appeared. I'm back in business:-)
Thank you.
