I am a new user of NinjaTrader. I want to download data from Metastock (Reuters Direct LInk). I noticed that NinjaTrader version 7 has an import function for Metastock. But how does it work?
I downloaded my data through the "TheDownloader" from Metastock, so all my data is stored in Metastock format.
Next I tried to upload the data through the "Import Historical Data" using the Metastock format. I get one file named Masterfile, which I can import. In log I get the following error message "Unable to import data for Metastock symbol ´SAS.CO': Instrument not supported by repository.
Does this means that I created all symbols manually before uploading the Masterfile. If that is the case. which symbol map label should I use. I can not find any sumbol label for Metastock under the Instrument Manager, I only see Barcahrt.com, Collective2 etc.
I understand this issue is properly due to that I am a new user, but I hope someone could help me in the right direction.
