Hello alexstox,
Thank you for the post.

You should be able to use a demo account from TD Ameritrade within the NinjaTrader platform. You will want to contact TD Ameritrade for more information on the demo accounts they may provide.

I've included instructions on creating a connection to TD Ameritrade below:

Unfortunately TDA demo doesn't want to connect with NT. So, only Yahoo. Thank you.

Do you have some guide how to add new instruments - forexample SPY ETF from Yahoo.

[NinjaTrader_ChristopherS]

Hello alexstox,

NinjaTrader comes pre-loaded with the most commonly traded instruments however, you may find the need to add an additional instrument.

Please follow the instructions below to add an instrument in the Instrument Manager.

From the NinjaTrader Control Center window select the menu Tools> Instrument Manager
Press the 'New' button
*Enter in instrument specific information and select the appropriate exchange (add Default exchange for equities in addition to the actual exchange)
Fill in any relevant information under the 'Misc' tab such as symbol mapping for your target connectivity provider
Press the 'OK' button
* If you wish to add an equity, this can be accomplished without following the steps above. Just open a chart (for example) and start typing in the symbol and a new instrument is automatically created.

The instrument is now added to the master instrument list.

Please follow the instructions below if you want to add this instrument to an instrument list.

Select the instrument list you wish to add the instrument to via the 'Instrument lists' drop down list in the upper left hand corner
Select the exchange (Default recommend for equities) as this will route orders to your broker smart routing system
Select the appropriate expiration date if this is a futures instrument
Press the '<' button to add the instrument to the list
You are now complete and can press the 'OK' button.

Yahoo website chart shows today data. Why in NT only EOD data from Yahoo? Is it possible to get realtime (delayed) data from Yahoo?

[NinjaTrader_ThomasC]

Hello alexstox,
Thank you for the post.

Yahoo will only provide historical data to the NinjaTrader platform. You would not be able to receive delayed data from Yahoo within NinjaTrader.

You could use a data-feed only provider such as Kinetick for delayed intra-day data within the NinjaTrader platform. You can learn more about Kinetick at the link below:

For a price quote from Kinetick, I would suggest emailing Support[at]Kinetick.com
