I am trying to import historical emini s&p 500 tick data into NT, with zilch success. This is the error message from the log:
- 26/08/2007 6:26:05 PM|3|4|Unable to import file 'C:\.......\NinjaTrader 6\db\import\ES 12-06.txt'. Instrument is not supported by repository.
I have made several attempts already, all with the same error.
Here are the first seven records in the ES 12-06.txt file:
20061011 063012;1356.75;3
20061011 063013;1356.75;2
20061011 063044;1356.75;59
20061011 063116;1356.75;2
20061011 063124;1356.75;1
20061011 063206;1356.75;1
20061011 063206;1356.75;2
The starting time is 063012; the last entry in the file is for:
20061011 164012. There are 40,027 records in the file, all dated 20061011.
Before I imported the data, I set up the ES 12-06 as an instrument using the instrument manager.
What exactly is NT complaining about?
How can I check that the new instrument was set up correctly, and if not, the reason NT rejected it.
TIA
