I am trying to create custom instrument in EXTERNAL connection in order to bring in live and historical quotes to test some external instrument.
If I map it as "MSFT" for example - it works just fine.
However, when trying to create a new custom instrument - I am always getting an error:
Default Error on requesting bars series: 'Unknown instrument ...
And then neither historical nor real time quotes won't work (LastPlayback, Last, Ask).. they won't work and chart will stay empty (without any errors).
However if I fake instrument name to MSFT when sending to Ninja and also set Ninja to use MSFT as instrument - then quotes do work.
I tried different instruments types (FOREX, STOCK), different sessions (24/7), Default and other exchanges - still always get same error when creating new instrument.
Can you please show example of creating a new custom instrument in Ninja 8 and loading it with fake historical and real data?
Thanks a lot!
