I have a lot of trades that I've taken over the past year through Interactive Brokers.
Some of these trades were taken with a prior install of Multicharts (I've since reformatted my pc), some of the trades were taken directly through TWS, and some of the trades were taken with Sierra Chart.
I'm trying to view my historical entries and exits on MultiCharts' charts. I can't seem to get the trades to show up on either the chart or the orders and positions window.
I've found that even trades that I took this morning in Sierra Chart don't show up in multicharts.
Is there a way to get multicharts to pull in historical executions from TWS and plot them on a chart?
Thanks!
Can you help answer these questions from other members on NexusFi?
Just as an FYI: R-Trader Via Rithmic has a historical tab for all your Rithmic connection platforms.
Day by day. so Even if you execute On NinjaTrader, SC or MC, does not matter, it will show for all.

to my understanding MC can only display the trades that you made through MC. I don't think (and I can be wrong here) it pulls in data from TWS but uses data it has stored internally.
Trades that are done, for example, in TWS do show up in MultiCharts, though the IB broker profile will need to be connected (the green dot in the Trading Bar, not just an IB market data connection).
But what atcost asks, importing historical trades from the past year in MultiCharts, can not be done. You could, however, add these trades to a file and read from the file into a MultiCharts chart and let an indicator or strategy plot these. But you won't be able to import these in the Order and Position Tracker.
