If you cannot click on it, it would indicate it's already opened.

Can you not find the TWS window? Are you having issues connecting?

No, i am connected. Now i seem to have the issue of IB historical data. Something did came up on the chart...

Gimme a couple more mins, looks like i will be able to get it to work

Does the order of connections have anything to do with it? I connect to several broker feeds? It seems that i did get something when i connected IB first, but then it crashed because of the IB limits

If you are connecting to multiple data providers NinjaTrader will first pull all data for all supported assets from the first connection then if the asset is not supported by the first connection NinjaTrader will then look at the second connection.

What data provided do you usually connect to first within NinjaTrader?

I use Vision and Ameritrade too. But now im only trying IB to get these charts, and its strange. I managed to get all the data once. But when i try to reload the chart it just turns empty and am connected but not seeing anything on the chart. Tried to disconnect/connect several times...

Ok, i got it now but it seems like i have to reboot my machine anytime this happens. I cant reload history...
And another thing that looks strange is that looks like there is no 05-13 contract to be loaded on NT, and i get the contracts for both 05-13 and 06-13 in TWS. But... This will do for now.

Thanks alot for helping me Chris
