Market Replay 3 year contract files
I would like to replay the 'YM 09-07' contract. I have the following file setup 'C:\Users\user\Documents\NinjaTrader 6.5\db\data\20070910\YM 09-07.ntm' I can connect to Market Replay, and see the available instrument. When I create a new chart to replay the data, how do I specify the instrument? The instrument list in 'Format Data Series' only goes back to 'YM 01-09'. I tried 'YM ##-##' but that did not work. How do I replay file 'YM 09-07.ntm' on a chart?Tags: None

Hello monpere,
Thank you for your post.
To view that time frame you will want to close NinjaTrader and then change your PC clock to view a time period close to that YM contract. Then when you reopen NinjaTrader you will be able to go to Tools-->Instrument Manager and then add the YM 09-07 contract to the Default Instrument List.
Please see the following link for more on that process.
Once you do that please close NinjaTrader and then change the system time back and then sync your PC clock. You can sync your PC clock by double clicking on the clock in the lower right corner of your desktop. Once you have done that, click on Internet Time tab and then click Update. Your PC clock should now be updated.
Then please reopen NinjaTrader and you should be able to view that particular contract from the chart.Ryan O.NinjaTrader Customer Service

Hello monpere,
Unfortunately this is the only way to add instruments with expiries that are older than a year ago, Ryan is correct here. The instrument manager will only list expiries up to one year ago.
To work around it, you will need to set your PC clock temporarily to a date back in time. That way you can add the instrument with the expiry you like to your instrument list.
Once you added the instrument, close NinjaTrader and set back your PC clock to the current time.JasonNinjaTrader Customer Service

Hi Monpere,
Thank you for the recommendation and I have forwarded it to development as an enhancement.
As a side note I tested this issue with NinjaTrader 7, and am able to add any contract front month from within a chart, but am still limited within the Instrument Manager.Ryan O.NinjaTrader Customer Service

More Control over Downloading Replay Data
Since I see wish-list stuff posted:
I like to see a replay download control panel.
Using replay to rebuild data from real-time indicators (Gom, etc.) Have to download one day at a time, one instrument at a time. Then run the replay with the recorders (run 4) in a chart for each instrument.
Be nice to be able to download from date to date for several instruments from one control panel.

Thank Ryan,
I just downloaded a week each of 6e, CL & YM. I have to write down as I start each day what I'm downloading, as it takes a few minutes & I'm forgetful. Forget it if the phone rings or... I have to disconnect ZenFire, connect to Replay, then look at what is available and fill in the blanks. If I could do all at once, that would just be really helpful.
