Today I'm moving from NT8 to ATAS

[⭐ kapitansb]

I have enough dealing with  Ninja Trader and I'm moving to ATAS  .

A lot of stuff is for free and in NT8 you need to pay for it  .Of course  I will still have NT8 -I bought a lot of software -but the way you can make decisions from charts is much quicker on ATAS (for example look quickly into footprint ) .

I tested free version and I recommend it for everyone ( for free lifetime! ) with footprint and 15 min delated data (is NT8  giving you that ?) .

I'm using renko charts -with top down approach -NT8 is way behind MT4 with that - a lot of software demand tick replay and renko stops working at that software (NT8).

And finally  I'm following a lot of professional traders -Axia Futures (in my opinion the best prop in the world ) have done couple of webinars together with ATAS .

Maybe we will create separate topic about ATAS at that forum  .

And finally I have nothing to do with ATAS ,no affiliate etc . -just wrote  a couple of words from my heart -  maybe help someone .

When I go through  the settings I will show you what I'm using .

Renko isn't even built into MT4.  You have to use an EA on a time based chart then open an offline chart.

Using  ovo.cz   you can quickly change renko size  .

You are quite sure and be absolutely willing to give up ALL of NT8 and its future indicators/strats/automated bots, posted by this community and its awesome members...just to have a free Footprint or Renko?🤪

Besides, I am not so certain if any of the Big Whales, the top notch 1% Wallstreet actually use Renko to amass their wealth. I doubt it.🤗On top of all that, I humbly think, at least in my own view when it comes to trading and treating it as a very serious business, if one cant even afford and invest some money to purchase some needed software to trade, then it might not be the right time to even start. Not ready.

While something can be used from free sources, yet, not everything should be.

I doubt ninja can be beated latest version has tons of upgrades  yes you like renko but majority of traders that milk propfirms are on minute charts  i hink the 1 ,2 and 5 minute are the most used worldwide by any trader is like support and resistance is not going to be off renko charts is off minute charts so atas can be good but i dont think is better than ninja ...is ok if atas is great for you and  should be a topic to learn more about the platform.

Is just my opinion ...

I wrote that I still will use NT8 and monitor what I can do with that software especially when market is slow -I bought some software which I still found useful .

But as a scalper -when I need quick decision at the moment  I think ATAS is giving  me the opportunity to be quicker .

Renko I'm using for  top down approach -so I'm going from the biggest to smaller looking for trends and trend lines brakes and then for entry I need order flow -which I can do with scroll of the mouse .

Here is the video which show you guys better that my explanation some features of ATAS  .

And of course I'm not saying that is the best software -as everything has it advantages and disadvantages -but at the moment is pretty useful for me .

Great. In the end, one must find whatever works best for them. I agree as well.🤗

Whatever rocks your boat. Go for it!

That’s a solid take. If you’re the kind of trader who likes to get hands on with order flow, ATAS really shines. The built-in footprint charts are sharp, and the default settings just work, plus the free tier is hard to pass up.

But let’s be real,these platforms are built so differently when you look at where you want your trading to go in the long run. ATAS is basically a great visual toolkit. On the other hand, NinjaTrader 8 feels more like a playground for developers. Since NT8 hooks right into C# and the .NET library, you can create automated workflows and analysis tools that ATAS just isn’t built to handle. With NT8, you’re not stuck drawing indicators and staring at charts. You can actually write custom scripts to do things like connect your trading setup to Python or AI models, snag chart data automatically, crunch numbers behind the scenes, and feed those results back into your trading system, Or throw together multilayered trading bots that hunt for opportunities across tons of instruments at the same time,all running your own logic.

So, yeah,ATAS works wonders if you want to act fast and make manual decisions. But if you’re aiming to scale up and automate, or tap into the latest AI analysis, NT8’s open-source flexibility is a game changer.

Good luck on the switch. In the end, it’s just about finding the right tool for how you like to trade.
