When I try to open ninja trader it gets stuck on apex elite validation and it just goes in circles and does not open.
A few quick things
Make sure you do not have data feeds to connect on startup
Always connect to CQG First - once connected the manually connect to other feeds (ie IQfeed)
#1 reason this happens is there is a workspace saved where a chart or dom or analyzer has an expired future - ie CL 11-13 etc…
To resolve this follow two steps
- Go to mydocuments/ninjatrader/workspaces and delete the _Workspaces file may also say _workspaces.xml
- Reboot nt7
- go to tools data connections - edit any connections - remove the connect on startup box that is checked
- close and restart nt7 your workspaces etc… should load
- remove any expired futures contracts and save the workspace
Note I also close all workspaces when i close NT7. So if something rolls over etc… I don’t have the issue. Not required - but a tip.
Going forward you should be good -
Please let me know if you need any additional assistance beyond this under questions - help desk in the top menu.
