Hello peterhxu7,
Thanks for your post.
With CQG daily bars are recorded in RTH
Since they are recorded in RTH they can only be provided in RTH.
To be able to view daily bars with CQG in ETH you have two options:
1) Open a 1440 minute based chart (1440 minutes in a day) and use an ETH (Electronic Trading Hours), Default 24/7, or Default 24/5 Session Template.
2) Use the Kinetick End of Day free feed and use an ETH (Electronic Trading Hours), Default 24/7, or Default 24/5 Session Template.
The Kinetick is as follows:
• From the Control Center -> File -> Disconnect -> your CQG connection
• File -> Connect -> Kinetick End of Day
• File -> Connect -> Your CQG connection
This will now make Kinetick be set to retrieve the data before CQG.
In order to display the volume however as you seen in your screenshot I would recommend using the Kinetick option to have it match.
With CQG historical data is provided from our servers and it is recorded in real time. The real time data is then provided to you in the format it was received. In NinjaTrader 8 CQG daily data will be recorded in ETH.BrandonNinjaTrader Customer Service

Hello peterhxu7,
Thanks for your reply.
NinjaTrader should be recording this information as it is provided in real time. I will look into this further over the next couple days.Last edited by NinjaTrader_Brandon; 04-07-2015, 02:58 PM.BrandonNinjaTrader Customer Service

Hello peterhxu7,
I have tested and verified this data is not available with CQG in NinjaTrader. I do not see volume as you do on your chart. I am using the built in VOL indicator however if you still see similar results on your chart with the VOL indicator I suspect this historical volume information is saved on your computer from a different data provider. I would recommend using the Kinetick connection that comes with NinaTrader to get this volume information and ETH daily barsBrandonNinjaTrader Customer Service

Hello peterhxu7,
Thanks for your reply.
Real time volume is not available for this instrument with CQG. Since this data is recorded real time to the historical data servers it is not available historically. The ^DJIA receives updates every second. The volume that is being seen is just a tally for each update. This data will not be available with the CQG connection.BrandonNinjaTrader Customer Service

i asked Sierra the same question and the following was their answer with a screenshot as well. I see the volume on the 5 minutes chart screenshot.
Sierra Chart is a professional Trading platform for the financial markets. Supporting Manual, Automated and Simulated Trading.
I have been paper trading on ninja platform for a long time and i really need the real time DJIA volume as a reference of trading YM. Help please.
