NinjaTrader: Trade Futures

This was the worst experience i had with a broker. The charts are weird, you need a subscription to trade (when they say “pay as you trade with no monthly fee, which is a lie), and the signup process was annoying. I should’ve listen to the other comments. DONT WASTE YOUR TIME. I wasted 2 days just to be told i need to have a subscription to trade, after jumping through hoops JUST TO GET THE ACCOUNT. I never write reviews, so you know this was a bad experience if I’m taking the time out of my day to write this. I’m hoping to have better luck with Oanda.

Mobile app constantly freezes, charting is quite frankly nonexistent. Whenever I close the app to look at something else whether it be a phone call or text message or TradingView, Ninja Trader is always difficult to get back into. Other mobile platforms have definitely shown that a user friendly mobile interface can be developed. I wish I could give NT a Zero star.

Charts are great but they will liquidate your position anytime of day. You will lose. They charge tons of hidden fees, and make it really hard to profit from your trades. They decided one morning that they needed everyone to have 4x the required margin in 30min or they will liquidate your positions, which they did. You can't even deposit money into the account that fast. You have to wait 3 or 4 days for it to clear. Total scammers. You're better off using another broker who doesn't eat your profits and auto liquidate your positions on a wimb and they charge you $50 every time.

Use it more than my PC now.

Ninja Trader is amazing!!!!!! Futures platform

The ninja trader app not working properly lately, it has been blinking just white and black screen and not able to connect the server

Please locked the DOM to a fixed size. It is crazy that it keeps zooming in and out every time you scroll or resize the chart. It is impossible to enter any trades. If possible, separate chart and DOM to separate pages. It is trying to show both and excel at none. Better to keep one thing working.

I’ve had NinjaTrader for well over a decade and thought it was a great idea that they’d finally made the move to have a mobile app. But this app still lacks a lot of functionality that you’d want in a trading platform. Plus no specific mobile support. I’ve dealt with NT support countless times before since NT (Windows) Platform is a very capable charting software. With that, support was great. Mobile app support, however, is really bad. The only thing they’d tell me is to “clear cache and you can search online on how to do that on your specific phone” and “delete and reinstall the app” which did not fix the problem. For charting: the only way to expand a chart and add actual indicators is to click on “market screen” which means if you don’t have depth of market data on a specific instrument you cannot see price on y axis when you expand the chart (even though you’ll see up to the minute price data on the small line chart of the watchlist) i.e. for crypto and forex pairs (which price data is free and available on most if not all trading platforms) and $TICK (which I wouldn’t need the depth of market data for) you’ll be able to see live price data on the small watchlist but not able to see it if you expand the chart *A lot of the 4-5 star reviews just talk about problems of the app.. so don’t know why they’re all clicking 4-5 stars

Useless app

Ninja, and Tradovate have one of the worst platforms on the planet. You’ll be in a trade, and the charts go black. Event contracts app has error issues that occur daily at this time. I can’t close my trades out.
