For the longest time I've been doing this process manually, and somewhat tediously.
I know that NinjaScript/C# does not support automating Hist Price importing. NinjaTrader assumes most/all their clients/users are using NT for traditional markets & NT is def geared towards having a Price Data Feed provider.
Finally got around to tackling this project. Had to be done via the Win macros perspective, since cannot be done via NinjaScript (AFAIK).
Most Win Macros/automation apps are useless... couple that I tried which "records" activity, then lets you replay.... Terrible & inaccurate performance.
The ONE app which enabled me to complete this project was : AutoHotKey (www . autohotkey . com). It does NOT record activity, you are required to program it, then it plays your programming.
This may sound like a LOT OF WORK. But I found it LESS WORK than trying to figure out the other useless "recording" apps.
The AutoHotKey site includes excellent documentation on how its scripting language works. It took me part of 1 day to learn the steps I needed & implement.
I would be happy to share my AutoHotKey code for importing Hist Prices if someone wants to shortcut this process.
Just DM me for more info.
