Hi guys

I want to add FESB (Eurostoxx Banks) to my instrument list but I cant seem to get it to work. Could someone walk me through what I need to do to add it?

Thanks

Hello Scalper85,

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

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.

Hi Jason and thanks for the fast reply

I have created it using these setting and I also attached the error message I get. I'm not sure if the symbol map i have used is correct and can't seem to find the symbol for FESB futures. My connection is Ninjatrader Continuum

Thanks

Unfortunately historical data is not supported for this instrument on our historical data server. The error message is as expected.

As far as I know, this futures instrument is not supported with NinjaTrader Continuum, so you will not receive realtime data either. Did our brokerage team inform you that you could trade it?

No they didn't I just saw another thread saying they created it and it's quite in focus right now so I wanted to add it to a chart and market analyser. Here's the link:

So I assumed it was supported since it is traded on Eurex as an equity index derivative. It's CQG symbol is ESB

The forum thread refers to Interactive Brokers.

Unfortunately this instrument is not supported with NinjaTrader Continuum. Please see the link below.
