Calling BidSize function in NT8
Hello, does NT8 still plug into the Continuum CCQ API? Also, does NT8 have a BidSize() function when using the DLL method? I want to be able to call the number of contracts on the Bid (i.e. BidSize) for a given futures market using NT8, is this possible? Regards, Rocket.Tags: None

Hello Rocket130713,
Yes, NinjaTrader still has a connection adapter to connect CQG/Continuum connections. The NinjaTrader Brokerage uses the NinjaTrader Continuum connection type.
Below is a link to a forum post with details about using the API through the dll interface.
The MarketData call would use 1 as the 'type' parameter to specify bid. (2 is ask, 0 is last)Chelsea B.NinjaTrader Customer Service

Thanks Chelsea for your reply. Does using the 1 in MarketData call give me the Bid price or Bid size? The Bid size comes from the market depth data and is the total number of contracts on the inside Bid.

Hello Rocket130713,
May I confirm you are reviewing the help guide API functions linked in that post?
From the help guide:
"double MarketData(string instrument, int type)
Gets the most recent price for the specified instrument and data type. 0 = last, 1 = bid, 2 = ask. You must first call the SubscribeMarketData() function prior to calling this function."
Unfortunately, the volume is not provided.Chelsea B.NinjaTrader Customer Service
