ETF functionality
I am interested in exploring ETF pricing and trading on Ninjatrader. Please advice what are the tools available in this regard in addition to adding them as individual instruments. I will also be interested in knowing if I can short ETFs and if i cna hold them overnight and the cost associated with that.

Hello,
Thanks for your note.
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.
1. From the NinjaTrader Control Center window select the menu Tools> Instrument Manager
2. Press the 'New' button
3. *Enter in instrument specific information and select the appropriate exchange (add Default exchange for equities in addition to the actual exchange)
4. Fill in any relevant information under the 'Misc' tab such as symbol mapping for your target connectivity provider
5. 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.
1. Select the instrument list you wish to add the instrument to via the 'Instrument lists' drop down list in the upper left hand corner
2. Select the exchange (Default recommend for equities) as this will route orders to your broker smart routing system
3. Select the appropriate expiration date if this is a futures instrument
4. Press the '<' button to add the instrument to the list
5. You are now complete and can press the 'OK' button.
For your second question, you would want to speak with your Broker to inquire about these costs.Drew O.NinjaTrader Customer Service
