Hi

I have a file with 1min QQQQ data.
I tried to look for QQQQ in the Instrument Manager but cannot find anything. I understood I need to add QQQQ to my default list first and then import the data.

Thank you

Hello,

Thank you for your post.

Please try selecting a chart and typing "QQQQ."

This should bring up a chart of the QQQQ and will automatically add it into your Instrument Manager, which you can now search for.

Use this link as a guide for importing data: http://www.ninjatrader-support.com/HelpGuideV6/Import.html

I did and now I can pull up QQQQ charts.
I tried to run a backtest though (same model I backtested already with no issues on FX) and I get very strange executions (far away from market prices).
You can see in the attachment below how the execution prices are totally out of whack.

Thank you
