I am unable to display Daily bars with Zen-Fire feed. I'm getting intraday
fine, but when I click on Daily I get a blank screen. Is there something else I need to do?

Yes there is.. you need to get a separate datafeed that provides daily, weekly and monthly historical data. Zenfire is an intraday datafeed. If you want a daily, you can substitute a 1440 minute chart but that is about as close as you can get with just using Zenfire.
Happy Trading

Please also take a look at a chart of our supported data providers: http://www.ninjatrader-support.com/HelpGuideV6/helpguide.html?HistoricalData

You can try using the free Yahoo daily datafeed as a 2nd connection.

1440 minute bars plot fine but the time axis becomes nearly useless (something I hope is fixed for NT7 but should've been fixed ages ago in my opinion), I don't know if this is the case with 'real' daily bars as well.
If zoomed out enough that individual days cannot be labeled, at least ****** weeks or months for goodness sake. Even when putting the cursor on the time axis is of no help as it displays nothing but 00:00. How useful. :rolleyes:

Hi Elliot Wave,
Thank you for your feedback.
The 1440 minute chart is a work around to those who do not receive daily data, and not designed to work as a daily chart would. Improvements will be made to NinjaTrader 7 in many of these charting aspects.
