Metals from LME

[Bobin]

Ninja Trader does not support metals from LME, the London Metal Exchange.
I would really appreciate if at least Aluminium, Copper, Zinc, Nickel and Lead would be supported out of the box, without having to configure something.
They are quite important and have high volume.

It seems CQG can provide LME data, is it possible to add instrument manually to let CQG data provider subscribe the live data?

• Navigate to the Control Center > Tools > Instruments window.
• Left-click on the ‘add’ button that appears near the lower right-hand corner of the Instruments window.
• Enter instrument-specific symbol mapping, exchanges, and other information on the Instrument editor that appears. This information will largely depend on your broker or data feed provider’s specific settings regarding the instrument in question.
• Left-click the OK button once each field has been filled out with correct information

The new instrument has now been created in your database. Should you wish to add this instrument to an instrument list:

• Navigate to the Control Center > Tools > Instruments Lists window.
• Left-click to select the instrument list that you wish to add this instrument to in the left panel, then left-click on the ‘add’ button at the bottom of the right-hand panel.
• Type the name and (if applicable) front month of your instrument in the search field that appears. Press the Enter button on your keyboard to confirm this change.
