Live Data from Tradestation

[designer]

I am currently able to import live data from Interactive Brokers TWS into NT.
Is there a way to do the same in Importing Live intraday Data from Tradestation into Ninja Trader? I do have an account with Tradestation as well but would be nice if my Ninja Trader Charts Data look the same as TS.
If so how?
I know you can import historical data from TS but I am looking for their live data.
Thanks

Hello designer,

Thank you for your post.

You can use TradeStation for importing live data, importing historical data, and *integrating your TradeStation trading strategies with NinjaTrader. These orders can be sent & placed with any one of our over 100 supported brokerage partners (see link above); however, TradeStation brokerage is not one of them.

*The TradeStation Email Interface is targeted to individuals who are not familiar with programming in Easy Language and want to run TradeStation strategies and automate order flow to any supported NinjaTrader broker. The interface works as follows:

1. You apply a strategy in your TradeStation chart that generates buy/sell orders
2. TradeStation will send email notification for Strategy Orders Activated, Filled, Cancelled and Replaced to NinjaTrader
3. NinjaTrader will process these emails and execute them as orders either to the NinjaTrader simulator or your live brokerage account

Please see these additional resources:
This link will take you to a section of our Online Help Guide detailing how to set up and configure the TradeStation to NinjaTrader Email Interface. This section of our Help Guide also includes a video.

I am able to import live data from Tradestation fine.
How do I store the data imported from Tradestation to Ninja Trader 7 so I can see it next time I open NT?
Thanks

Hello,

There are 2 settings for this. One is under Control Center->Tools->Options->data Tab->Save Chart Data as historical.

This will save live data recieved as historical.

If you need historical data imported in then please follow this guide:

I followed the steps mentioned below but now Ninja Trader 7 is Not responding when I open the Ninja Trader program. Unfortunatelly I crated the charts in the default workspace therefore I can not access the Control Center. Please advice.

I also use Interactive Brokers and I have a Tradestation Account. I went thru the setup process, installed the TS strategy. NT connected thru external to TS.

I am not getting data from the TS chart in NT thou?

What do I do next?

[rtj4201]

It just occurred to me that there is no live feed. I just installed NT7 and uninstalled NT6.5. IB is not providing an data on Saturday apparently.

I then did a historical data import. The file imported, but it still does not show the data on the NT chart.

Any advice?

[rtj4201]

Ok, I refreshed the chart on NT and it worked. Sorry to trouble anyone listening.
