This is specific to Rithmic and the combines you reference. NinjaTrader supports having multiple accounts, multiple connections to different brokers from a single instance of NinjaTrader.
Disclosure: This communication is sent to you by NinjaTrader, LLC, a software development company which owns and supports all proprietary technology relating to and including the NinjaTrader trading platform.
Items of note:
1) Once you select a trading platform with TopStep you must continue using that platform. You can not change it.
2) OneUp allows you to change trading platforms.
3) In addition to NinjaTrader I also use BookMap. BookMap is a trading platform though I use it more as a tool than as a platform. TopStep supports both TSTrader and BookMap but does not support a connection to both TSTrader and BookMap at the same time.
4) OneUp will support a connection to both NinjaTrader and BookMap at the same time.
The takeaway is that buying another NinjaTrader License would not be necessary. There are other trading configurations I can and will use. Just be sure that whatever platform you want to use with TopStep is the platform you are willing to use from start to finish as you can't change it.
For OneUp I will use my NinjaTrader platform and probably BookMap.
For TopStep I will use either TSTrader (I want to try their 14 day trial of it) or BookMap.
(I just bought BookMap not too long ago and I'm a little leery of it's order execution and it's trade management- but my apprehension is not them it's me. I just think you should be 100% comfortable with your trading platform.)
Hi @Aragorn. Hopefully, we can clear this up for you. You are able to open two Trading Combines under one account. This one account can be connected to Ninja Trader. It can be a little tricky setting this all up, so if you decide to purchase the two Trading Combines you can contact our Trader Support team and we can do a screen share with you to show you how it's done. It is important to know that while you can have two Trading Combines, you CANNOT have two Funded Accounts. Whichever Trading Combine qualifies first for a Funded Account will be the only Funded Account activated.
While you are welcome to try this method, we do not reccomend it. Our Performance Coaches will advice against it as it will not set a trader up for any realist success. If you have additional questions specific to your account, you can contact us at [email protected] or by phone at (888) 407-1611.
