Hello, i am new whit NT8.

1º I want to see a chart of historical data = 10 years and timeframe = 1 minute. All the chart on the screen. It is possible? I think it's impossible. Is possible to program a script to do this?

2º I open a new chart, then insert a new strategie "Sample MA crossover", but i don't see any trade on the chart. I need to see only the arrows, trades, for see the behavior of the system ... i don't need operate on real time. But i can not see the strategie arrows.

3º I need to optmize for the best SQN ratio. I have the SQN.cs file for NT6, but I can't find this file for NT8 on internet.

4º At strategy analyzer, on the instrument I choose ES ##-## or 6E ##-##. I want to choose multiple instrument. For example 10 different instrumet and NT8 calculate automatically one after another all calculations. It's possible?

Thank you for your patience over my doubts.

.

Sorry if i ask you a stupid questions, but why you need that chart on the
screen in 1 minute time frame for such a long period ?

10 years x 200 days x 23 hr * 60 minute = 2.760.000 minutes

No screen on planet earth is able to show with a horizontal pixel resolution of that

This is an example of 11 years with time frame = 1 minute.

on such a long period, doing 1 Minute or 5 minute or 1 hour will make no difference
as every detail gets compressed by the resolution of your screen that is maximum +/- 4000 pixels

As rleplae pointed out, it's an odd request - you may want to try NT support - they should have the answer in case you can't find it here.

Hi, i am trying to insert a strategy on a chart. Is only for backtest. I need to see the operations, where the system buy and sell, but I can't see the strategy.



Please, what is the problem?

Have you tried to change the contract to an actual month, rather than using ES ##-##?

Yes, the problem is the same. I can't see the buy/sell orders.
I need this for check the strategies before otimization and walk forward.

Not sure what the problem is. I tried it and it worked on mine.

What I would suggest: exit NT8, rename your existing NinjaTrader 8 folder to something else, start NT8 and try again. If it works it might be something to do with the settings. If it doesn't work you may want to try and reinstall.

Don't forget to restore the old NinjaTrader 8 folder once you're done testing.
