Hello,

Thank you for your post.

The ^TICK symbol is available however in order to access this data you must be connected to a provider that offers index data. Assuming that your data source does provide index data please add ^TICK to NinjaTrader's Default instrument list using the steps which are outlined here: http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/h...ment_lists.htm

An overview of the different types of data which each provider offers can be found at this link to our Help Guide: http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/h...rical_data.htm

sorry about not saying clearly. I mean TICK volume. I am using one minute chart to trade future index. Am i able to see the Tick Volume(indicator) instead of Volume, number of future contracts?

Hello,

Thank you for clarifying.

This indicator is not included with NinjaTrader by default and I was not able to find a free version of the indicator here on our forums however this is something which could be added through custom programming. If you are not a programmer yourself any of the NinjaScript consultants listed at the following link could code this project at your direction: http://www.ninjatrader.com/partners....pt-Consultants
