Can someone show me how to enter an option into the instrument manager? I have tried several times but I am missing something.

Thanks

Hello,

You can add it to the instrument list (http://www.ninjatrader-support.com/HelpGuide/EditingInstruments.html) or enter the order directly from the Control Center window by selecting Option under the type field. An option order entry display will appear after selecting Option from the Control Center window.

Thanks Byron. I am wondering if there is a place to get the symbos for IB. I was told to go here http://www.cboe.com/TradTool/Symbols/SymbolEquity.aspx?sid=G but I have tried what is there and it still isn't working.
