NT Order Desk and Calender which I had bookmarked in my browser have now been overtaken by NT new webpage with no obvious links to these pages. If anyone has the new links, can you please post them. Thanks!

@NT Brokerage

Also the bookmarked link to your recent new intra day Margin policy regarding news announcements no longer links to the correct page !

The margin policy topic was discussed here on future.io




and on NT forum :-

https://forum.ninjatrader.com/forum/ninjatrader-8/platform-technical-support-aa/1217501-sept-2022-news-letter-margin-update-for-major-events-new-announcements

NT_Sev link in post 2 of the above thread also no longer works.


many thx

Hello,

Thanks for the post.

In order to increase visibility to news events that may have a market impact, we have moved the Trade Desk calendar directly to the account dashboard.

To access, simply log in to your account dashboard and the calendar appears on the right-hand section of the main page. Clicking the 'See all' button will give users all upcoming events for the next 3 months.

For the link to the margins page, here is the new location - Margin Policy And Position Management

Thank you.

NinjaTrader is dedicated to providing the most positive user experience possible for the futures trading community. As such, we are very excited to announce the introduction of our cloud-based trading infrastructure & integrated multi-device trading through NinjaTrader Web & Mobile. As we have continued to modernize our services to best support you, we have also launched a new look & feel across our website & communication channels to reflect our expanded product offerings.

We would encourage users to visit our updated and expanded Help Center ,which contains FAQs and articles on various topics around the new platforms, our updated client dashboard, the latest release of NinjaTrader Desktop (v. 8.1) and much more. Some sample articles are below:

It is also important to note that NinjaTrader Desktop remains Free to use and does not require a brokerage account to download - NinjaTrader Desktop Installation Guide

As always, you can contact our support team with any additional questions.

Thank you.

The web NinjaTrader looks exactly the same as Tradovate, like literally a re-skin of Tradovate's platform.

I believe the reason behind this update is because NinjaTrader is owned by a VC firm, and the VC firm wants to IPO within the next 5 years.

NinjaTrader wants to be Robinhood, but for Futures trading. The web app doesn't even allow other brokerage connections, only NinjaTrader Brokerage.

I just really hope NinjaTrader doesn't break the original desktop version. The first change which requires a NinjaTrader login to open NinjaTrader desktop, even if using IBKR or Rithmic is the first bad step for NinjaTrader desktop users.

Wouldn't be surprised if NinjaTrader stops supporting non NinjaTrader brokerage accounts, and copies the other platforms. ThinkorSwim only for TD Ameritrade accounts, TWS only for IBKR, and NinjaTrader only for NinjaTrader Brokerage.

Ouchy. I'm not saying you're wrong but ouch.

Seems like the company is trying to gameify the CME event contracts.

Kind of reminds me of....slot machines.

Agreed, they're trying to rapidly grow the number of users, even if the average account balance is laughably low for futures trading.

For comparison, Robinhood has around 11 million monthly active users. Source: https://investors.robinhood.com/news/news-details/2023/Robinhood-Reports-Fourth-Quarter-and-Full-Year-2022-Results/default.aspx

Wonder how long until NinjaTrader files IPO?

Hey NinjaTrader,
I think you did a great job with these updates. I like your new look/branding. Website is looking much better as well.

I tried the mobile app and it's looking good, even though it is not for me because it does not fit my trading style, but I saw people asking for one, so I assume they will be happy.

The web version is looking good as well, but again, not for me. You mention that it works with macOS, and while that is true, the Desktop version of NinjaTrader works fine on a Mac with Parallels.


But the one thing I really dislike and find concerning in the mobile app are the achievements. I think you are sending the wrong signals by putting achievements in a trading app.

You state in the video about the mobile app that it's "fun and good when users review their trades", but be serious, these achievements are not made for users to review their trades. How could they? They do not give information about any trades. They are purely there to increase user activity and attract a specific crowd. I think NinjaTrader should be better than that...

All in all I think the updates are good, (haven't checked the desktop version yet), but please get rid of the achievements...

I'm surprised the achievements feature passed their internal compliance review. Must be walking a very fine line with regulators.

Even the new slogan on their homepage is pushing it. "Better Futures Start Now". I think NinjaTrader has the numbers showing the majority of their customer base loses money because the majority of their traders are not hedging or arbitraging, but purely speculating and way over their heads.

To access, simply log in to your account dashboard and the calendar appears on the right-hand section of the main page. Clicking the 'See all' button will give users all upcoming events for the next 3 months.

Moving the calendar behind a login wall, and not leaving the calendar immediately accessible as it was, does not increase visibility. If you left the calendar accessible as it was and also added the calendar to the account dashboard, then that would actually increase visibility.

I don't want to have to login to look at the calendar. It was fine as it was, directly accessible via bookmarkable website link.

Agreed.

Also, where is the current changes in margin page that was on the order desk, that we were supposed to keep an eye on in case NT changed the margin levels during the day?
