You could try going to

Tools>Instrument Manager>ES

then select 09/10 expiry from the drop down menu

then>Left Arrow

then OK

then select the 09/10 contract from the name list

Tell us how you make out.

Hello Kiwi.82,

Thank you for your post.

It appears that you currently have the ES 06-10 selected which has expired. Please use the steps I have provided below to rollover the ES 06-10 to the current contract ES 09-10.

• From within the NinjaTrader Control Center window select the menu Tools > Instrument Manager
• Highlight the contract you wish to rollover in the left side of the Instrument Manager window
• Press the ">" button (the instrument will disappear from the list)
• Press the "<" button and the instrument should re-appear with the front month expiration date

Please let me know if the issue persists after this procedure.

Now that you understand how to import current contracts, I would recommend removing expired contracts using the same method. It cuts down on the confusion.

I've also connected with ZenFire, but I have no data at all.
The Instrument Manager is empty!??

Please help.

Please help.

Can you please connect to Zen-Fire then go to Tools-->Instrument Manager-->Type set to Futures-->Search.

Please let me know if you then see instruments listed.

Yes, I did that but nothing happened. I even set the expiry to 09-10.
