Thanks for your candid feedback.

- Yes, NinjaTrader Web and Mobile and good parts of the brokerage account dashboard come from Tradovate
- I can't comment on the lack of support specific to Tradovate but I will pass this along to make sure its addressed
- NinjaTrader customer support staff have been training up on Web and Mobile, we are about to expand our support forum to include Web and Mobile categories so we can deliver the same level of support that you have grown accustomed to with the NinjaTrader platform over the past 20 years
- Web is an important part of our growth plans for the future so rest assured, we are committed to its development
- Technically Tradovate community indicators work on the NinjaTrader branded version but I will check to see if they are accessible, that I don't know, good question
- Brian is employed at NinjaTrader and sits on our executive team, the lead developer Victor has become our Chief Architect. They care, there deliverables just changed. In any case, as mentioned above, I will check into the support side of the house

Hopes this helps provide clarity for you.

This has been a welcome update to NinjaTrader and it is exciting to see. Unfortunately porting NT8 desktop indicators to web version is extremely cost prohibitive as there has not been a Ninjatrader code transition team to make the library robust enough. Additionally there are no instructions on how to utilize what makes Ninjatrader great (indicator on indicator) or vendors in general. Hopefully in the future Ninjatrader will develop a "how to video" for converting desktop indicators to mobile.

I have noticed that this thread has gone quiet. Does that mean that the problems that people had with the new
version 8.0 have been largely resolved?

I ask because NT just posted a notice that you must upgrade by 6-23 in order to continue to use continuum data feed.

I am currently using version 8.0.26.1.

Update removed a crapload of my indicators (entire Lizard Library)

Lots of other indicators downloaded from this site also removed.

All templates now useless.

Can't remove indicators and start over either. Get same error message.

Are other people seeing this from this release? What is ninjatrader doing. Their whole platform is reliant on quality 3rd party development. The lizard indicators have become an essential part
of the platform for many many traders.

I am currently using version 8.0.26.1.

I used my laptop to test the 8.0.28 update patch only. Seems to be working fine, did not change anything at all.
I plan to avoid the 8.1** something updates as long as possible. The connectivity to the Continuum issues observed by others have not been observed with this minor update in my case. Hope it stays that way.

regards

There are a few things that irritate me about NT 8, but I do like the new ability to use the web and the Android app to monitor trades.
  • I use ATMs to manage my trades, but those executions are not grouped together in reports as they were in NT7. I really want those ATM executions to be grouped together in the reports.
  • There used to be a report that showed the trades on a scatter chart with different variations that could be selected. That was a cool chart that was removed from NT8.
  • It doesn't seem that one can create or use a SIM account when in the trading live mode.
  • I would also like the ability to use more than one DEMO or SIM account so that I can test things in a different account without messing up the tracking of my main strategy practice in the primary DEMO account.

I use many different sim accounts with ver 8.0.26.1.

Do you mean that ver 8.1.1.6 does not allow that?!

Instead of committing to updating software to the level of the competition, they waste time on bullshit and updates that no one in the community wants.

They offer a ridiculous DOM and think about multidevice access.

Open your eyes and if you are not able to make at least copy Jigsaw, Sierra Chart, Motiwave, Bookmap etc..

The time has come to abandon ship.

What is wrong with the NT8 DOM? What are you missing there? If you actually like the Sierra Chart or Motivewave user experience, why bother with NT8? Personally I tried both Sierra and Motivewave several times and found the user experience to be the worst of any trading front end I have ever tried. Horrible and idiotic is one thought of mine about many platforms.... NT 7 and 8 is a cut above. Sure, NT8 has some issues, no doubt. And there is always room to improve. Still my top choice by a long mile.

I am on version 8.1.1.5. When I am in simulation mode, I do not see any way to create another demo/sim account. I will check Live Trading mode again later, but last time I checked, I did not see a way to create a demo/sim account.
