Hello punkiy2111,

Thanks for the reply.

Judging from the screenshots, it looks like you are creating a new FDXM instrument or editing the FDXM instrument. This should not be necessary as FDXM is a preloaded instrument within NinjaTrader. I would recommend following the steps I included to reset your instruments and then you should see the FDXM on your Default Instrument List. Can you verify if you have followed the steps to reset your instruments?

Thank you and I look forward to your reply.

You can tell that contracts are those who have to put? You seem complicated? After sending you catch only do I need to print them ... You do not think the bug is in the contracts? I wonder why ... that contracts and date must put ???
