I'm using NT 6.5 and am charting from an external data feed. I can see the data in Ninjatrader (console), but when I open it on a chart, nothing displays?

Are there any known issues with the differences in time between the data-feed time-stamp and computer time? Is there a way to combat this, or can I set a default time for Ninjatrader's clock?

Hello Kingwizz,

Do you have another application running that provides market data through the External Data Feed? Please see the link below for information regarding the External Data Feed.

Please note that NinjaTrader time stamps its bars at the closing time.

The following connectivty providers provide native timestamps on real-time data:

- ZenFire
- eSignal
- IQFeed/DTN
- BarChart
- OpenTick
- PFG

Other supported connectivity providers will use your PC clock to timestamp real-time data.
