Does anyone have any experience with Optimus Futures NinjaTrading Hosting?

As Im looking for a solution to the problem that can occur with Ninjatraders OCO orders residing on a persons computer (rather than with their broker) and the loss of internet connection... leaving open trades (especially scalps) unprotected (i.e., no stops in place).

Use a VPS with a reliable connection (and send me a PM if you want to try this with one of mine).
Optimus Futures solution is different, and only made for automated strategies, which runs on a machine own by Optimus, in a reliable data center (@mattz can confirm).

Sam you are correct, for the most part you are right, we run automated solutions for people, however we do have the ability to provide now a hosted solution for people to view and trade their accounts. BUT, you provide this service before me and i hear you did a great job in helping guys, so I suggest futures.io (formerly BMT) guys will try you out. You have good technical knowledge and I know you will do a great job for the guys and hosting.

As for NinjaTrader and the OCO question presented above:

Since we provide NinjaTrader via Rithmic, customer could place their OCO orders on RTrader (Free) that resides on the Rithmic servers. that way if there is a loss of connection on his hand, the trader will not be affected.
RTader is free and if mike will allow me I can record an educational video of how the 2 platforms interact.
You wil be able to clearly see that orders show up on booth Ninja and RTrader when you use the same account.
Many of our customers use it with other platforms as well that rely on Rithmic.

So if this only an OCO issue and not just latency, there is no need for hosting (if one uses Rithmic)

mattz, can you give away any details in regards to your hosted solution?
Is this a virtual windows desktop or similar?

my internet connection can be unreliable at times, and i started to think about a hosted solution recently.

We have a number of plans based on your account size, frequency of trading, etc. I would urge you to reach us out directly if you are interested a because different traders have different requirements.
