ninjatrader+kinetick (real time) for BursaMalaysia
I really need some help understanding NJ+ kinetick's contract months (expirations and roll over) settings:
(1) say for instance KLI trades current month, next month and next 2 calendar quarters. when i open KLI 10-13, the first data point starts from 30/8/2013 and price and volume data starts from 30/9/2013.
(a) how do i create a continuous contract using KLI10-13? specifically do i add KLI 11-13 into it or KLI 09-13 into it? what about the roll over dates?
(2) same thing goes to KPO contracts {CONTRACT MONTHS
Monthly (list the third, fourth, fifth and sixth forward months) then alternate months going out 24 months of the FCPO contract. The first spot option contract month will be trading the 3rd month FCPO contract.}
(3) how do i make sense of the contract months and roll over thing?
truly appreciate if someone can help me understand this part, and especially those who use NT+kinetick and trade BursaMalaysia
Many thanks. db
Can you help answer these questions from other members on NexusFi?
1. Make sure that you have the previous months instruments loaded using Instrument manager
2. in the Control Center > Tools > Options > Data .. make the settings look like this (see image)
thanks for your reply. ok i tried the setting. i close and reopen NT to load the charts.
but the chart still looks the same. it doesn't have a continuous chart. think need to sett contract month expiration/ rollover, which i dont really know how
i ve attached KLI 10-13 which doesnt have a continuous chart and my data setting...
btw just to be clear, when you say load previous months, does it mean inserting them in Instrument Manager or opening up the charts? (anyway i tried both but to no avail)...
