You need to have your account enabled for options.

@NinjaTrader How do I do that? as I sent a general inquiry to NT bkr and response was I need to open separate account, fund with a minimum of xxx and have a CQG Desktop to place options trades.
TIA

If i have a current NT bkg account and the latest release of NT, Why do I need to contact anyone? why is it not automatically enabled ?
NT introduced the new feature into the platform which is great! Confused

received email from support :

Thank you for your inquiry.
You currently do not have an options based account.
To trade Options, you would need a separate account.


To Buy options only, the account will need a minimum balance of $1000.
To Sell options, the account minimum is $25,000.
Additionally, a CQG based platform such as CQG Desktop or Mobile will need to be used to place Options orders.

Last I watched is that you just introduced "Options on Futures" within NT8V19? (not requiring CQG mobile or desktop)

TIA

Options on futures for NinjaTrader Brokerage customers using NT8 is available in beta (it uses a new CQG API) for live trading, which is why it is not automatically setup for all customers. The response you received from our support staff is related to our existing offering for trading options through CQG’s native platforms. Apologies for the confusion. If you would like a member of the team to contact you directly to help get NT8 enabled for options, please PM me your contact info and a good time to reach out.

My understanding is that NT intends to include 3rd party indicator support for the AI Strategy Analyzer. Can you please provide any sort of ETA for this request (identified as SFT-4056)?

Please add my vote to this request!

I have forwarded this request to our product management team. That said, you could custom code in and indicator/strategy within the OnConnectionStatusUpdate() to throw email(s) depending on connection state. Keep in mind, while not 100% the case, the majority of times a connection is lost is due to connectivity lost on the actual internet connection meaning, sending an email at that specific event would NOT make it through.

I' m a very happy user of ninjatrader from Italy. I'm still in demo using limited data trials but I'd need unlimited data to better tweak my strategies before going live. At the link below
https://ninjatrader.com/Futures-Data-Options?utm_source=demo_auto&utm_medium=email
I read:
"Need More Data?Select an option below to power NinjaTrader with unlimited data.
Unlimited Futures Data: Open your brokerage account for use of a demo & live account.
Receive ongoing access to real-time futures data through both your demo and your brokerage account to utilize when you are ready for live trading.You can open your account with as little as $400 & our deep discount commissions start at $.09 per Micro contract providing clear savings!"

Could you please tell me:
1 Opening an account will provide me with unlimited and real time data of all instruments listed in ninjatrader? (for example with 15 days datafeed trial I have historical Intraday data of VIX Futures but not real time data)
2 I reside in Italy. Am I allowed to open a ninjatrader account? Are there any limitations?
3 When I'll be ready for live trading I'll need to buy the platform?

Thank you very much

1. Opening a futures account will provide you with an unlimited demo, as well as your live trading account. The market data you receive is based on the exchanges you select to subscribe to, which you can change at any time.
2. There are no limitations when opening a NinjaTrader account from Italy.
3. We provide customers with a free live trading platform option. Here is a link to the license comparison to help: https://ninjatrader.com/LicenseComparison

If you email [email protected], we can assist with options specific to your needs.
