I am currently on a demo of ninja w/cqg data and I cannot get the pricing data to flow on the Super Dom. When I hit the drop down menu looking for the CL 07-11 contract (July Crude) there are only choices for CL-04-11 and CL 03-11.

How do I go about getting the DOM to show me the current Crude oil contract so I can SIM trade on my demo?

Hello vern13,

Thank you for your note.

Please follow the instructions below to rollover the expiration date of a futures contracts, so they may be displayed in the default Instrument list in your SuperDOM.


From within the NinjaTrader Control Center window select the menu Tools > Instrument Manager
Highlight the contract you wish to rollover in the left side of the Instrument Manager window (CL 04-11)
Press the ">" button (the instrument will disappear from the list)
Press the "<" button and the instrument should re-appear with the front month expiration date

Click here for a video and further instructions (http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/forum/../helpGuides/nt7/rolling_over_a_futures_contrac.htm)

Also, you will want to delete the CL 03-11 from that list as well by:


From within the NinjaTrader Control Center window select the menu Tools > Instrument Manager
Highlight the contract you wish to remove in the left side of the Instrument Manager window (CL 03-11)
Press the ">" button (the instrument will disappear from the list)

Please let me know if I can be of further assistance.
