Ray-

I’m glad to see the order entry capability within the Market Analyzer Alert function window. However, can you please enable a position size limit (“not to exceed X” contracts) as well as a time filter to this function?

Hello,

Thank you for your note.

The feedback will be sent to our Development team.

Hi, I would like to ask you about conecting IB with ninjatrader



If I conect my account of IB with ninjatrader, I only can take trades with ninjatrader or I can take trades through IB order entry too?


basically i want ninjatrader for charting only

I want to see volume profile and SPX charts in ninjatrader and take options trades with Interactive broker

Hello,

You should be able to trade both the IB and your NinjaTrader accounts, differentiating them on the platform through the account selector on your order entry method.

For more specific information on your use case, please contact our team through the NinjaTrader Help Center.

Thank you.

Hi Team, Happy Holidays to all!

The Alerts function on the Market Analyzer tab is great.

However, below please find a question on implementation, a possible bug to fix, and a feature request.

Please let me know if there is a better way to limit the number of orders being generated from the Market Analyzer alert system. I attached a screenshot of the logic I used to limit the position size (attempting to limit position size to five contracts). In practice, my position size exceeded my defined number of contracts (screenshot on such logic attached).

Also, how does one accomplish having each additional order end up with the original target/stop, instead of calculating each of these separately (per entry)? By contrast, the Strategy Builder has a user defined “per strategy vs. per entry” choice. This makes it easier to consolidate/move all targets and/or stops together by a discretionary override.

Finally, I would like to suggest a feature request enabling Strategies the capability to reference Market Analyzer values/parameters, and making such functionality accessible/referenced through the Strategy Builder.

Thank you in advance for your suggestions and for streamlining the feature request.

I love the charting software and tools provided. You guys have been my favorite, because the charting software is so smooth, and I can use tick rates as far back as I want.

Recently, I just got funded through earn2trade and currently have a live account under rithmic. However, the firm doesnt provide us with a ninjatrader license key, so I am told that I need to purchase your license if I want to use ninjtrader. I've called customer support and emailed platform sales, but they couldnt answer my question: when I have to pick a broker, which one do I select if I want to trade right away using my rithmic data credentials? I've been skimming through some threads, where people were asked to contact ninjtrader support to activate their rithmic?

Hello,

Thanks for writing in.

If you are using Earn2Trade, they should have provided you a key to access the software.

However, if you have a live account with NinjaTrader and a live key you can use the connection for “Rithmic for NinjaTrader Brokerage” and use “Rithmic Paper Trading (Chicago)” as the System.

Should you need additional assistance, please contact us through the NinjaTrader Help Center.

Thank you.

I'm not with earn2trade since I passed their evaluation and got funded. I am with helios and they gave me a live account. I cant use the same license key earn2trade provided me, because it's for paper trading only. Since i have a live account under helios, which broker would support rithmic data feed while using ninjatrader's charting software?

Hello,

We would recommend contacting the live account provider directly for options and assistance.

Thank you.
