Just learning Ninja Trader and need some help entering tickers through the Instrument Manager. Most of them went through okay but I have a handful that when I enter their name and/or description and click search, nothing comes up. They are:
Thanks Mike. The other thing that I wanted to do though was watch a handful of tickers in the market analyzer. In order to do this, they must be first be in the instrument manager. I guess the instrument manager doesn't automatically identify everything. I put those same tickers on a list and used the load list feature and it worked fine.
There are a few though that are still giving me problems. Take a look at this symbol on marketwatch:
This was one of the tickers that Al Brooks mentioned on his webinar. If you go to that link you will see the name of the symbol as Barclays Bank PLC, etc. Just under that is states, "NAR VXX. I thought that NAR might be the market it trades on. Check out this one:
Clearly the Nasdaq right? So what is NAR then? I can't find it anywhere. When I search on Google it only has references to Market Watch. I am just trying to find out some of the markets that these symbols trade on. I see this NAR a lot (HDGE, GLD to name a couple)Any ideas?
Edit: Just saw you use IB. I can't help much with that, because I have a hard time finding stuff with IB too. I would never use their data, just use Kinetick instead.
