Can not download Market Replay Data for expired contracts

[twilek]

Hello,

I try to download Market Replay Data for FDAX 09-17 (for example data for 20170601) which is an expired contract. This works fine in Ninjatrader 7, but when I try to do the same in Ninjatrader 8 it doesn't work.

I have been able to add FDAX 09-17 to my instruments list, I then choose it in the "Instrument" drop down under "Get Market Reply data" under the "Load" tab in the "Historical Data" window. But when I press "Download" nothing for that date or contract shows up in "Market Replay" under the "Edit" tab. I have no problems at all to download this data in Ninjatrader 7 though, and it also works fine to download replay data for FDAX 06-18 in Ninjatrader 8.

Can you please help me out how to solve this?

Hello twilek,

Thank you for your post.

Glad to assist. I can confirm I am seeing the same on my end when downloading data. This is expected due to NinjaTrader 8 replay data going back about 90-days while NinjaTrader 7's replay server storing approximately a year.

I will, however, forward a note to our development team regarding greater availability for future feature consideration. The ID for this request is SFT-1978. You may reference this ID in the future regarding this matter. If implemented, this would also list in the NinjaTrader Help Guide release notes (Help > Help > Release Notes).

Let us know if we may assist further.
