  1. Thank you FxHeaven,

     

    I have managed to install the NT 7.31

     

    I added the Continuum and the CQG (with live connection details). It all worked while the market is open. However, now I do not have anything on my chart. So, this implies to me that the historical data is lost.

     

    Any help there.

     

    Thanks in Advance

     

    Like it says in the Readme.txt:

    "In My personal version these things are disabled:

    AtiServer

    NinjaTrader data server connections for historic data

    messageTimer

    newsTimer

    RSS fetching."

  2. My biggest issues by far are performance and support. Other platforms have standard features (ex. footprint, market profile) that in Ninja require 3rd party add-ons. Have always had issues with performance in Ninja - the DOM lags as compared to say ****** which presents issues with order execution. My workspace and chart regularly freeze or crash (some improvement on 64 bit but still unacceptable) and is untradeable during periods of high volatility. I run one workspace with max 10 charts (daily, 60 min, 15 min are pretty basic), and whenever possible have my indicators set to update on bar close, as "true". Every so often I have a workspace become corrupt and have to spend the time to recreate it. I’ve gone through various forums, suggestions on the Ninja support site to change anything I can to improve performance but haven’t been able to see any significant improvements.

     

    I run a computer dedicated to trading only, lots of memory and power so none of this should be an issue. I've done troubleshooting on my internet connection/provider, router, had servicemen come in and don't have problems on other applications so I believe the issue is Ninja although they deny it. Ninja being single-threaded rather than multi-threaded doesn’t help with performance either.

     

    Some of these issues may be dealt with in NT8 but I’ve dealt with these problems for years now and who knows how NT8 will perform when it is ever finally released. For the time, education, money, frustration invested all these years in Ninja, I just feel I’d be better off if I went with a different platform when I was starting out.

     

    On their support forums you rarely find an answer to a problem, they always ask people to send in log and trace files so you can't troubleshoot anything yourself (for common problems) and have to wait to go through support. When you do deal with support they frequently ask to have access to your computer (I don't like to give anyone access to my computer even if they are support) and then they snoop around outside the areas they should be looking (know this for a fact).

     

    With this new brokerage business they no longer allow Canadians whereas long-time business partners AMP and Optimus did. I also heard their Brokerage support was poor but can't speak to this personally.

     

    Re: NT DOM performance, if you are on AMP/CQG you could just pay extra $10 for 2nd login and run CQG trader instead of NT DOM side by side with NT charting. CQGT doesn't have lagging issues, at least I haven't noticed any.

  3. Hello good people, I hope you can help me resolve this dilema. I had to close my amp account as i needed the cash. i was using ninja.007 with emu 5.06 and signed up for an amp demo account. using the educated version i am unable to login i get message connection to the order routing system is unavailable. can anyone help me solve this problem as a had a few sim accounts that i was testing and would not like to lose that information.

     

    Cheers

  4. Hi all,

     

    I used Market Delta trader with a feed from CQG that my broker gave me with no charge, i managed to start the Ninja and connect to the demo

    CQG account, but i can't connect to my live account (again from CQG),

     

    It writes to me "Login failed: Invalid\Unauthorizes Private Label" ,

     

    do i need to tell my broker i am now willing to use Ninja with the

    CQG or do i need to tell them something else ?

     

    Thanks for the amazing help.

     

    you need to talk to your broker, they have to enable your acct to use with Ninja

  5. I think, your broker only knows when you logged in/out and your all transactions but he does not know if your NT is cracked or genuine.

    My broker knows that the trades were made using NT. I have to pay extra costs per transaction whenever I use NT, they are Trading Technologies DOM fees. This happens whenever I execute trades via a strategy or a DOM. If trading via NT is enabled, I get hit with extra costs, not much, but it appears on the statement.
