How do I clean an instrument table?

[meegwell]

Hi - imported various instrument lists and often times I get some bad ones..sometimes lots...bad data or whatever. I usually just hit "OK" when I get the Unable to Load Data message running a back test. Is there an easy way to clean the bad data/instruments out of the tables?

Hello meegwell,

Thanks for your post.

It's quite easy to reset the list back to it's default settings, but I have a feeling that this is not what you are after. If you intend to remove some instruments but not others, those changes would need to be made manually on an instrument-by-instrument basis.

Thanks for the reply. I was looking to clean a custom list i made by importing instruments. Can i export an instrument list? Then i could clean it up in a spread sheet and re import.

Hi meegwell,

I'm afraid not - the instruments would need to be removed one-at-a-time if it's not possible to remove all instruments and return NinjaTrader's master list to it's default.
