NinjaTrader Brokerage was a long-term IB for both Dorman and Phillip. Then NT created its own FCM, named NinjaTrader Clearing, and the NT accounts were transferred over from either Dorman or Phillip to the new company.

I moved to S5 Trading from AMP and can see that the Teton feed / order routing is indeed faster and more robust than CQG proved to be.

Pretty happy with it. Highly recommend. I do not use indicators other than volume profile (Volume by Price) in Sierra Charts. So I have zero lag ever.

I also have a lifetime license for NinjaTrader. I have not used NT 7 or 8 in many years; just never really got into it as it never measured up to Sierra Charts IMHO.

Also NT compared to Tradovate: there is no comparison. Tradovate handily bests NT; yes I know NT bought out Tradovate and Infinity as well. Top Step provides TSTrader platform which is Tradovate.

No they are not. Dorman is a partnered FCM with Sierra with teton order routing. So my setup is Sierra Denali Datafeed (PAckage 12 with MBO) and Teton order routing (no cost). My fees besides the SC platform and Data feed are as follows: CME Exchange 2.60/RT, Dorman Commission/ RT 1.00.

Fast as lightening. You can get a faster platform than SC due to the way it's built. All C++ which provides maximum flexibility in what you do with it custom wise. It's highly memory efficient all the way around.

You're with Dorman trading and use SC to trade through them? I thought Dorman was NT's broker of choice?

CME Exchange 2.60/RT, Dorman Commission/ RT 1.00.

For what instrument? Is there a difference in micro vs mini like on NT?

The point is kind of moot as I am not able to open an account anywhere else at the moment.

I'm just being curious for the future.

Hello
I had been use NT automatic strategy from 10 years ago with Rithmic, my code script has 1.500 lines. I’m doing research and any hosting company in Aurora tell me that SC with Teton is much more fast. My problem will be change script C# to C++ and I learn a new platform. Can I connect NT with SC Teton? It would be same low latency NT Teton vs SC Teton? Or script C++ is more fast than C#? Thanks.

Been a few years since I used NT8, and wasn't really in-depth at that. Don't know if you can set up a custom feed.

The Sierra Chart needs some learning first, but it's definitely worth it, even if it takes time.
Many people have dropped out at first glance, which is a great waste.
In particular, the lightness and functionality of the software is not found on other platforms.

So far as a broker who offers and supports Sierra/ Teton I am very pleased.
Clients reporting good speed and did not have any downtime or issues in the 3 months since we started.
Sierra as a charting platform always been one of my favorites, i feel it offers excellent value for the $$ and I am quite impressed with the execution abilities and flexibility.

We offer set up via 3 diff. FCMs and assist clients setting up the connection via remote assist if needed.

One more nice thing is that currently sierra does not charge the per side transaction fee like rithmic or CQG in the form of 0.1 per side so helps reduce trading costs.

You can learn more or ask for a demo here.
