Okay. I'll send both files you mentioned I guess.

It wasn't shut down but I did replace the files and reopened it and all the instruments I had before aren't showing up, nor are the commissions. .

Hello,

Was NinjaTrader shut down when you replaced the files? If it was not, please restart the software and check for these settings again.

I replaced both of those files with the old one but none of the instruments and commissions show up in the Instrument Manager.

Thanks, Kyle.

Hello bce111,

Thank you for your post.

Instrument settings are held within NinjaTrader's database. This file is kept in the Documents > NinjaTrader 7 > DB folder and is named 'NinjaTrader.sdf'.

Commissions settings are held in NinjaTrader's Config file. This file is located within the Documents > NinjaTrader 7 folder.

If other questions come up which I could assist you with please let me know.

Hi,

I just installed the latest version of NT - the direct edition one. I'd like to find out which file from a previous same version install has the instruments and commissions data so I don't need to reenter all of it. I'd like to just copy this file and paste it in to replace the current one.
