@NinjaTrader

Ray,

I like some of the new things:
- Adding a Web and Mobile platform (been waiting for something like this for a while)
- Adding Server-side ATM for the PC app (will make it safer trading for those with unstable connections, and can abolish the need of trading with a VPS)

NOte:
Did not find any issues yet with the 8.1.1 version on my PC yet. GUI is a little more modern and pleasing, but not big changes.


Some Issues found on new site and new Web app:
- I cannot access market replay on the new web application. (this weekend would have been great to practice and discover its features, but been limited by not been able to sim trade on replay). Tradovate help pages mention that thhis is an add on, but I do not see any place for add-ons on the Ninjatrader Web app.
- My multi broker license is enabled on my PC software, but it is not enabled on my website profile.
- New web plaform needs more documentation and help files on the ninjatrader site (I ended up visiting the tradovate site for materials)
- Demo account should probably be enabled by default to all customers. It took me a good while to figure out that I did not have a simulated account number, and some additional time to figure out how to create it.
- Missing some heatmap intdicators (like the one included in the orderflow+ suite)
- Missing complex alert rules based on indicators or graphic objects
- Moving through the timeline in a chart is challenging. I miss using the cursor keys, and having the arrow on the chart to get to the last/current candle.
- There is no strategy wizard for documetation for startegies and and indicator building.


Question:
- When trading from the new web and mobile apps, will the ATM work on the server side? If connection is lost, or web browser is close, Ninja will take care of executing ATM instructions?


Regards,
Horacio

Thanks for the feedback, appreciated.

ATM's work server side so if any platform is disconnected, the server will handle. This is in beta at this stage. There is a new multi-provide mode, if this is enabled under Tools > Options, you can't use server side ATM's in your NinjaTrader Brokerage account. The reason is with multi-broker, non NT Brokerage accounts still have to use client side ATM's and these are different in functionality than server side and we don't have a way to solve for mixing the two in the platform.

Regarding Multi-Broker not showing up in your account Dashboard, can you DM me with the email used to register your Dashboard account as well as your license key, I will escalate to look into.

Friend was wanting to demo the prior version with two week data feed.

How can they do that now?


Thanks

If you are referring to the prior NT8 version (not NT7) then they would need to install 8.1 and register for an account at ninjatrader.com, the credentials they create are used to login to the Desktop for two week simulation. We don't offer two week data trials for NT7 or < NT8.1 any longer.

Thanks Ray for your answer, I sent you a DM about the multibroker issue.

Question:
You did not mention anything about if it is possible to do a market replay on the Web platform, or is it me that I am not finding my way?

Regards,
Horacio

What's this nonsense? I am lifetime license user with a forum account. Now you require me to sign up to some new site so that I can download updates to the desktop platform which I understand is now going to require me to log in even when offline?? The sign up for the "new" platform account link doesn't work so I can;t even sign up anyway. I already signed up when I bought my original licence years ago so would Ninjatrader please let me know why the original account details weren't transfered over to the "new" account and also where the old account details are being held and if they are no longer being used by Ninjatrader then will they be getting destroyed?

Be very interesting to see what telemetry is going on with this new setup, would NinjaTrader care to elaborate on what telemetry is taking place, what and where data is being sent from the desktop platform too. Thanks

If anyone is running the new desktop and has Wireshark handy be interesting see what and where the packets are heading to.

- We have your account details, the sign up is asking you to create a user name and password, your license details will then be transferred over either via a manual process that you invoke through importing your license key OR if you install the latest 8.1 overtop the previous version, it will import your license key automatically

ok thanks for reply. What telemetry is being sent?

If I want to work offline does the new system require an online login before I can access the desktop platform or can I still access the desktop platform in an offline environment?

I started a new setup, new download & new NT 8.1.1.1 install:

exactly the same for me. After registering for a new dashboard-account, I cannot import my old license key into the dashboard! I started a support ticket and I'm probably not the only one...

If you logged into NT Desktop with your new credentials, it automatically imports your license key.
