It also sometimes doesn't hurt to PM random strangers on forums who seem to know what they're talking about, so long as you retain the judgment to decide if their advice is any useful to you.

Thank you I will take you up on this

So it looks like ninjatrader doesn't offer options?? Is this true? If so maybe I'll go back to ToS or what other good options are there?

Correct, NT does not support options at this time. If this is an important feature for you, you should speak up in this thread:



In the mean time, I believe ThinkOrSwim, TradeStation, and Sierra Chart offer options trading.

You can also ask for a platform recommendation in this big options trading thread:



But keep in mind that thread is focused on selling options on Futures.

I know ToS is ppular but it seems complex and I hate the colors of it.

FYI, you can change TOS to white by clicking the configure button on the login screen and selecting white background.

i love you! haha. I did not know about that configure button and it helped me fix one of my biggest issues...the font size! I have a 2560x1440 monitor and everything was so small.

Maybe I shouldn't say this, but you can replay data with ninjatrader without a trial from a broker or buying anything for as long as you want (you won't be able to view live data though, but you can download previous data from the current day). That being said, most brokers will let you use infinite trials for as long as you want and when they expire you can just sign back up or get a different email address if they require...The only problem with this is that you'll need to record your own progress after the trial ends. Brokers can get annoying with their eagerness to sign you up for anything so use this to your advantage so tell them you want a trial and an extension if need be lol
