Gold connection to IB

[finrod]

Hi, i have some problems connecting to GOLD in interactive brokers.
What is the symbol mapping? and the exchanges to tick?

Hello finrod,

Thank you for your post.

Please clarify if you need mapping for Gold Futures, Index or the ETF so I may further assist.

i need mapping for gold futures. GCZ9 for example

[NinjaTrader_ChristopherJ]

You will want to use GC for the mapping for Interactive Brokers which should be setup by Default witihin NinjaTrader already.

i accidentally deleted the GC settings...cause i was having some problems. Can u help me with the selected exchanges and symbols?

[NinjaTrader_ChristopherJ]

Please reset your instruments by going to Tools-->Options-->Misc tab-->Reset Instruments.

Next please remove GC from your Default list if you have it added at this time. Now add GC back into your Default list with Nymex selected as the Exchange and the Expiry set to 12-09.

Please let me know if you are able to receive data after this procedure.

Have a great day and Happy Trading!
