Can I connect to data feed at same time as I run Market Replay?

[saroj]

Also what if I use NT on another computer? How can I keep the two in sync and/or replay data recorded on the other computer?

If someone else records data, can they send me the file to replay here?

[NinjaTrader_Dierk]

Data files are recorded in <install>\db\data.

You can copy those files to other machine.

[saroj]

do you copy both the ntm and nt2 files?

on the other question... having two sessions open at once with diff connections... I experiemented and lost the ability to connect to vcapfutures... maybe a coincidence...

should I be able to run NT on one computer in market replay mode and on another conntected to vcapfutures?

[NinjaTrader_Dierk]

yes

[saroj]

oops.. you replied while I was editing the earlier message about which files... in case you didn't see the add-on...

[saroj]

do you prefer that I post possible bugs and/or usability problems here with the pics or via email to support?

Hi
Does the Kinetick data provide all of the intra bar data? So I can have the same advantages of testing the Market replay?

Is there instructions on using it? (eg do I connect and is it saved locally on my computer so I can do market replay etc)

Thanks

Hello bbucha_stk,

If you have a real-time subscription to Kinetick, you will receive intraday data to NinjaTrader which can be recorded in market replay.

Market Replay works if you have downloaded or recorded market replay data.

Please click here for detailed instructions on downloading and recording market replay data (http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/helpGuides/nt7/set_up12.htm)

I do not have a real-time subscription to Kinetick I thought its free?
I have a connect menu item to Kinetick...:rolleyes:

bbucha_stk,

The Kinetick End of Day -- Free connection which comes preconfigured with NinjaTrader 7 is only for end of day daily data.

For intraday data, you will need a real-time subscription.

[bbucha_stk]

What benefit is that over what you already provide in backtesting?

[NinjaTrader_Matthew]

The Kinetick EOD connectoin will only give data for daily intervals such as daily, weekly, monthly, etc.

For intraday data such as tick or minute, you would need a real-time subscription to Kinetick or another real-time data provider.

If you would like to use replay data, you can download this data for free from the NinjaTrader market replay servers.
