Trading should be undertaken only with risk capital—funds that can be lost without jeopardizing one’s financial security or lifestyle—and only by those who can afford such losses.

The new NinjaTrader is a breath of fresh air. The new Interface is modern and sleek and a much needed update as the old app was quite outdated. That being said there’s still a few things that are missing that I would like to see added in future updates.The first thing is not being to see all the information on the top like the old NinjaTrader (Equity, Open Profit, Cash, Auto-Liq Level, Day Margin, Total Profit) instead you have to click on the side bar to see the above mentioned. Seeing these things at a glance while you’re in a trade is a nice feature to have and would love to see it return in a future update. The second thing is Dark Mode. Please add an option to turn on Dark Mode as it would add to the modern, sleek UI as-well as many people’s personal preferences with how they want the app to look like. The third thing would be the drop down menu when you click on a market on the Quotes tab that we have on the old NinjaTrader app with all the specs, Volume, 1H,4H, etc.. having these things would really add to the new NinjaTrader without removing the useful features of the previous app. The new NinjaTrader is much needed update and I’m glad it’s here. But there’s things missing that need to be brought in a future update in order to make the app even better then the previous

Needs a lot of improvement
leonmaldito
I give it 5 stars because it’s a way better alternative instead of using Tradovate app.Even tho it was new to me to use the app I was able to figure out to place trades and I really like the risk implementation where I can calculate the tics for my S/L and I’m able to see how much my risk will be.The improvement I would suggest will be free chart movement and drawing tools, that alone will improve the app significantly and to be able to mark my levels on the go when not at my desk will be a huge plus.Overall I think it’s a useable app, I can still do my drawings and analysis on TradingView mobile but I would prefer to keep all my work on Ninja Trader.Thank you for this app, I know it’s not easy building an app of this caliber but it’s a step in the right direction.

Reliability is key, and it’s not here
dude just read it
It is so much easier to customize my trades on this app. The only problem is that my trades don’t go through when the buy limit is hit. I am sim trading and hope to use real money soon but I can’t find a single app that’s worth the risk. None of them will simply do what I tell it to. Made an order in with a limit, cut loss, and take profit marker then closed the app and carried on after I submit the order. It’s your job to fill my order from there. I checked later on and the order I set was perfect except you didn’t fill it. It was still waiting while the chart showed that my parameters were met. You failed to help me earn a $150 today. If that’s how it’s gonna be then you aren’t worth my time.
Great platform but…
All Wheel Drive Motors
The platform is good. Commissions and margin requirements are low and execution times are good. The problem is that they are unwilling to fix certain issues. For over two years you’ve had the option to connect a debit card to your account. I, unfortunately, have not been able to. After hours spent on the phone with customer service, I always get the same answer. Just use a different deposit method. If I wanted to use those options I would. The better idea would be to fix the problem. Not sure why it takes over two years to fix this, but it hasn’t been fixed yet. If they did that I’d change my review to five stars.
