What NinjaTrader is

NinjaTrader is a futures trading platform from a US company of the same name that also runs a futures brokerage. Its flagship product is a Windows desktop application with detailed charting, a price ladder for order entry and tools for replaying past market data. Web and mobile versions are also available.

It is built for futures traders who want close control over their orders. ATM strategies attach preset stop loss and profit target brackets to each entry, Chart Trader lets you place and move orders on the chart, and add-on order flow tools show volume and market depth. Strategies and indicators can be written in NinjaScript, which is based on C#.

At a prop firm, NinjaTrader usually connects through a data and order routing service such as Rithmic or through a brokerage connection the firm arranges, and some features require a licence. Before buying, check which connection you will use, whether the firm provides a licence, whether automated NinjaScript strategies are allowed and whether the desktop version will run on your computer.

Frequently asked questions

Does NinjaTrader work on a Mac?

The desktop application is Windows software, so Mac users typically run it through a Windows virtual machine or a remote server. The web and mobile versions work on other systems but may not include every desktop feature or connection a firm supports.

Do I need to buy a NinjaTrader licence to trade with a prop firm?

Not always. Many futures prop firms provide a licence key or a connection that enables trading on their accounts. Check what the firm includes, since a paid licence or add-ons may be needed for some features.

Can I run automated strategies on NinjaTrader with a prop firm?

NinjaTrader supports automated strategies through NinjaScript, but firms set their own rules. Some allow fully automated trading, some only allow trade management tools, and some ban automation. Confirm the policy before you start.
