not sure if im posting this in the right place but I'd like to know why my range charts never have historical data

so when I open ninja and connect to to IB the range charts start from scratch----or from my last exit time----my time charts are ok they will show past data

IB doesn't provide historical tick data more or less. Better to use another data feed.

Kinetick is great if all you use is NinajTrader. Otherwise go with IQFeed.

The other option would be to switch brokers entirely, there are several good brokers that also have good data feeds, for example Mirus Futures and Zen Fire. IB is a great broker, but a terrible data feed.

I will eventually open a second account at mirus--to spread the risk

also will look very closely into what mirus offers in Managed trading accounts
