I'm using NT 6.5.

I'm trying to test some trading strategies using old market data I have recorded.

The data is from March of 2009 and the instrument is the ES 06-09, unfortunately, my Instrument Manager only gives me the option of going as far back as ES 09-09. It also has a ##-## option for the expiry date, I tried using that but when I ran the recorded data, nothing happened.

Is there any way I can go back now and get NT to give me the ES 06-09 instrument or, am I out of luck?

Thanks,
Greg

Hello GregInTx,

Welcome to the NinjaTrader forums!

Unfortunately it only loads the last year of expiration months. There is a workaround available - change your system clock to a prior year and restart NinjaTrader. It loads based off your system date.
