1) is there a way to directly change the ndf data files in the dB folder? Has anyone tried it? Adverse affects?
2) if I have a strategy that is trading live. Say the EOD close time is 7pm. And I manually import EOD data using the documented inport methods from a text file for a data series that I have within my strategy. What happens? Does the strategy see it on bar close? How much time do I have to update the newer data? Say the close is for 7-7-2018... at 7pm... and I update the data at 9 pm... what values is NT going to use between 7pm and 9pm? Will it be the data for 7-6-2018? If so, how many days can you go without updating the data for one of the data series within a strategy (NOTE: the data series is NOT primary)?
3) say my primary data series is 1 min... following the example in 2: if I update the EOD values from 7-7-2018 at 9pm using the documented import method from a text file... will NT start seeing the value at 9:01 pm on bar close and trade accordingly?
4) is there any AUTOMATED method of importing data in the db ? I’m not talking about streamwriter/reader.
5) is there a way to write to the database using ninjascript? I’m able to pull in data using ninjascript using excel method and chart it... but how can I permanently write to the underlying symbol? Is there a function for updating symbol data in ninjasceipt?
Thank you
