How to add a new stock to Instrument Mgr???

[M_ichel]

Hi all.

I'm trying to add a stock to my Instrument list, but it does not work.

The stock is Yandex NV A (sticker: YNVX) and it trades on Nasdaq.

When I type the letter "Y" in the Name box of the Instrument Mgr, and hit Search, it only returns with Yahoo and Yum!

What am I doing wrong???

Thanks.

Hello M_ichel,

Thank you for your post,

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
* 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.

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.

The below link will show all the NinjaTrader-supported data feeds and the market they support.
