I'm new to Ninja Trader. I've opened an account with OpenTick and I've successfully connected OpenTick to Ninja Trader. I've also opened an active account at OpenTick with a licence to access relevant data.
I want to chart the Dow Jones Industrial Average Index. I've opened a chart, using Ninja Trader's symbol - DJIA. A chart has opened with daily data except that there's no data to see (whatever I do) after 29/09/06. And the data most obviously is NOT for the Dow because the chart shows a close on 29/09/06 of 66.66 whereas the Dow Jones closed at 11679.07 on that date.
I've searched OpenTick for the symbol DJIA. This doesn't appear to exist on their database. I've also tried a symbol search for the Dow Jones Industrial Average on ^DJI, $DJIA, INDU, $INDU etc etc. with no success on any of these symbols.
Just to be clear, I'm not looking for the e-mini Dow, I'm not looking for futures, I'm looking for the Dow Jones Industrial Average Index off the NYSE which closed down 185.58 points at 13,360.26 this past Friday - 22nd June, 2007.
I'm sure there's a simple answer but please can someone give me advice on what I am doing wrong or what I need to do to get myself up and running? I'm tearing my hair out................ Thank you.
