Can NinjaTrader take an IB feed.

[John Bowles]

Just curious. Can NinjaTrader take an IB feed and of course its backfill.

Thanks,
John.

yes it can take the feed but backfill isn't possible since NT needs a true tick feed (according to a NT representative some months ago...).

This is inaccurate. NT support IB historical minute and daily bars, not historical tick data since they don't support true tick data.

Ray is correct... forget to mention, that I asked them about constant volume bars. Time based bars of course work fine.
