I am importing CQG tick data in individual files, in the format required for NinjaTrader import (ie: ES ##-##.Last).
I deleted all previous data one contract at a time in the Historical Data Manager so that I could start from a fresh database.
The data imports ok, and I can see it listed with the ES ##-## label in the Edit tab of Historical Data Manager.
I can also add the contracts using Instrument Manager, by searching for ES, selecting the Exchange/Expiry from the drop down lists, and adding them to the instrument lists.
But when I then attempt to open a chart or run a backtest against the data, none is available.
Is this the correct process for importing continuous contracts? If not, what am I doing wrong?
Thanks
