Hi,

I have DL'ed the data and extracted in the correct slot and I can see the .ntm files, such as 'YM 12-09.ntm'. I then went to file-connect-market replay, and I got a list of dates, I chose 12/1/2009(i.e. data of the Dec '09).
I then went to file-new-chart and it opened up the format data series. It does not show me the 12-09 instruments. I can only see the 03-10 instruments. On the right hand pane, I have an option of start date, which is 11/30/2009 and last date of 12/1/2009.

Now I can see the data till the end of 30th Nov. I started the replay and no new bars appear.

I have also gone and viewed the market replay video from the NT (Link was supplied on this thread in an earlier post). I am using NT 6.5 free version through Mirus and Zen-fire.

So, how do I do the replay of this data? I tried 1min as well as 150 tick chart.

TIA for your help.

OK, I have resolved the issue. I needed to create the instrument and try it that way.

Thanks.

Well I've just gone here, and tried the top download

I've tried this for at least an hour. Is this all I need to do?

==================================================

Installation instructions:
1. Unzip to your Documents\NinjaTrader 6.5\db\data directory.
2. NinjaTrader should now show the extra dates on the Connect -> Market Replay screen.
==================================================

After I do this and go to Control Center|File|Connect|Market Replay Connection

nothing at all happens.

Hi Lejczek,

Since I don't know exactly what is your problem I will try to guess:

1)Did you activate the replay option (see file attached)
2) if yes than check if you have a conflict with your db directory (see post #14 in this thread)

I hope it works
