Hi kumaresh11,

Thank you for your post.

The only data provider we support that offers equities data for free is Yahoo, but that is historical daily data only. The following link will take you to a page that details the steps required for creating a connection to Yahoo finance. Click here to take me to the Yahoo Connection Guide (http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/forum/../../webnew/support_Yahoo.htm)


You can see if PFG will provide intraday data for stocks and ETFs as they are provider of that type of data on a demo basis. If you can not use IB then you will want to look into TD Ameritrade for a demo.

Here's a link for NT/PFG setup.

You'll have to call PFG support for a few of the required IP addresses, it was a simple set up for me. However, PFG does not keep more than a few days of historical intra-day data. So getting your 30 day requirement could be tough.

Hello kumaresh11,

Correct, PFG only supports forex and futures data with NinjaTrader.
