I pulled this off Pete's Jigsaw youtube video about the Nikkei. I'm guessing something is wrong about it?

Yep, that session template is wrong.

The exchange changed the hours for the Futures product in about September.

The actual stock exchange (and therfore the cash index) start at 9am, but the Futures now start at 8.45am.

The 'night' session was extended as well.

See attached.

Thanks.. Once I plugged in the correct times into the template no problems. Didn't realize a change was made. Thank you!

Has anyone found a decently priced data feed for the Nikkei yet?

Few are out there but finding one with a continuous contract and historical data is proving difficult.

Best I have is esignal at $161 USD / month I think.

Also, with 2 exchanges which to do you use for volume profile? or to get a true picture to they need to be combined? Could you chart one and watch the DOM on the other? Seems a bit messy haha

Love here how others that use VP and the DOM are trading the Nikkei

AMP offers CQG data for the Osaka Nikkei mini at $29 per month.

I do not use volume profile in my trading, but in my opinion there is no valid argument for using anything other than the Osaka exchange chart. Why would you need to? The Osaka exchange has the highest volume and highest amount of institutional trading. Using two different data feeds for your chart and DOM will be disaster and makes absolutely no sense.

AMP has no historical data and as I use VP I need it.

I currently have AMP but I really need a continuous contract and historical data to chart.

I found a cheaper option through Kinetic but that was on the SGX exchange.

As someone else has said, banging my head up against the wall at the moment as I am kind of stuck with NT unfortunately

Drop NT and get with Sierra. You will get historical data. And it's a way better piece of software.
