Ninja - TWS integration , still bad!!!!

[Leope]

Hello,
The Ninja-TWS is still bad:
When I attempt to add a new instrument that is not currently recognized, then after I get a few warnings, I need to manualy go to instrument manager , open the instrument and [after I look up the exchange] to actually mark the exchange in the instrument editor .
I know that TWS can provide the main exchange for the instrument via the API , so why doesn't Ninja use this ?
This is going on for years . Are there plans to fix this ? why not ?
Is there a way to bypass this by adding some code that will automitaclly update the instrument manager ?
Please, either fix this or suplly some means of bypassing this. This is really annoying!!!
Thanks

Hello Leope,

Thank you for your feedback on this subject.

I've submitted a feature request on your behalf for NinjaTrader to automatically pull the instrument settings for Interactive Brokers when adding a new instrument that is not pre-loaded in the Instrument Manager.

Once I have a tracking ID for this request I will post this in this thread for future reference.

Thank for your reply,
I hope that it will get done ..
It seems not that complicated.
This is going on for years now ... at least 3 probably more ...
