A program based on .Net running on Linux? Come on, what you define as " a lot" is not even remotely relevant for commercial purposes.

Just buy a PC you cheapskate.

If "some" fits better your semantic zeal... read it as such... and drink less coffee.

Really love the platform, There are many so called gurus try to be a snake salesman and trade on demo and claim that they trade real accounts, there are many innocent victims of this grand fake scheme. As NT has always stood for its clients needs
I would like to request NT to have a water mark of " sim account " word in the charts when traded in demo, that way these false claims can be seen clearly. This is a simple request list.
Appreciate your efforts for NT 8 release.

Sorry if this has been discussed before in futures.io (formerly BMT). I did try to search for it.

I really need the "5 seconds interval update" to correct invalid bars for IB data feed.

Occasionally my strategy is affected by the incorrect OHLC of bars, and i need to refresh the historical data manually to correct the chart.

The issue was discussed in 2010
Is it possible to use IB real time bars? - [AUTOLINK]NinjaTrader[/AUTOLINK] Support Forum

And this has been done sometime ago in Sierra Chart
Interactive Brokers Trading Service - Sierra Chart

I do not see this fix included the enhancement list, is there anyone experiencing the same issue that i have?

Thanks

I'm not sure if this has already been created by someone at Ninjatrader or available somewhere on this forum but I would like to see PNF charts to be represented in different ways like OHLC or candlesticks. Currently, PNF charts only allow X's and O's. This is something that marketdelta currently provides that I haven't seen on any other platforms that keep some (atleast 1 person I know) stuck with marketdelta.

P.s. If someone knows of a way to get PNF (reversal) charts into candlestick form on Ninjatrader, please let me know.

In trading, shortcuts lead to the longest path possible.

I believe that this is already resolved for NT7 on futures.io (formerly BMT). You need Bars Type called ReversalTickBars. Try attachment or search on this forum. Copy .cs into directory C:\Documents and Settings\***User***\...\NinjaTrader 7\bin\Custom\Type\ and restart NinjaTrader.

ahhhh thank you very much. I've searched for this before and was unable to find it so just assumed that no one created this.

Thanks for the suggestion. I will take the concept of what you are suggesting under advisement. At first thought, doing what you suggest has several downside implications:

- All of our users who use our free version would be adversely impacted with this water mark
- Since our application is an open framework, there likely is a way from programmers to remove such water mark
- One could easily use a live version of NinjaTrader and connect into a real-time demo account which to NinjaTrader is a real account

A forced watermark on charts will be very annoying, even if it's just sim.
