it gliches out on me sometimes when logging on, other than that its great but it has lost me opportunities trying to get the connection issues sorted,
I love ninja trader the only think I feel the liquidation charge its to expensive most of the time it kicks me out right when the price its about to reverse but I understand its a business and the house have to win
the mobile app has a glitch that puts a stop in with my sell or buy and immediately takes money away from me.
Ninjatrader in Trading View platform has 5-6 seconds delay and sometimes more. I reached Ninja customer service and they blame Trading View. I contacted Trading View and they blame NinjaTrader..... 2 seconds can cost you a lot of loses.... you figure it out. if you don't believe me check countdown at start in candles when placing a trade.
Highly responsive with great margins.
Good but it auto closes position and sometimes it takes my loss and the money it costs to take the position.
Logging in not seamless, clunky website architecture, slow account funding via ACH transfer
love the platform but withdraw are not friendly
I love this broker, good prices and ease of use. Also the education suite they have is highly underrated. My preferred futures broker.
I am new to Ninja Trader but so far its been great. Fast response to any questions and trade fees are good also.

Brokers provide access to financial markets and execute trades. They act as intermediaries between traders and exchanges, providing the necessary infrastructure and tools to place buy and sell orders. They offer services such as order execution, market access, research, analysis, and customer support. Additionally, brokers facilitate the use of leverage, margin trading, and help ensure regulatory compliance, providing traders with a secure environment to trade effectively. Without brokers, individual traders would struggle to access markets and execute trades efficiently.
An order is an instruction for a broker to execute a trade - buy or sell an asset on behalf of a trader. Depending on your strategy, risk tolerance, and market condition, different kinds of orders can be more or less effective, let's see the basic ones.
- Market order. It's a basic type designed to buy or sell an asset immediately at the next price available
- Limit order. Specifies the maximum (for buying) or minimum (for selling) price at which a trader is willing to execute a trade. It's only executed if the price reaches the preset level. There are buy and sell limit orders - they're set to buy/sell an asset at or below/above a certain price
- Stop order. Triggered when an asset moves above or below a certain price level, always executed in the direction that the price is moving. There are stop-loss orders (automatically closes a position at a certain level if the market moves against you) and (initiates a trade when the price breaks a certain level)

A broker's rating on TradingView is based on its clients' reviews. We ensure broker ratings reflect real user experiences by allowing reviews only from verified TradingView users with active linked accounts. Recent ratings carry more weight, providing up-to-date insights for informed decisions. This approach promotes transparency and prevents manipulation. Make sure to rate your broker to help it improve its service and assits other users in their choice.
Leverage is a mechanism that allows traders to open larger positions with a smaller amount of capital. It basically means borrowing funds from a broker, often multiplying your position size by 5x, 10x, or more. For example, with 5x leverage, a $100 deposit could open a $500 trade with your broker lending you $400 you don't have. It's a popular technique, but remember that while leverage increases potential profits, it also magnifies losses, which is why it's essential to learn how to manage risks.
It's always worth preparing for trades before actually executing them. On TradingView, you can do this with our Paper Trading functionality.

Margin trading means an investor buying an asset by borrowing the balance from a broker. It allows traders to increase their buying power, enabling larger positions with less upfront capital. While it can provide greater market exposure with less capital and amplify potential gains, it also comes with increased risks:
- Increased risk of losses, including exceeding initial investment
- Interest costs on borrowed funds
- Potential for margin calls requiring additional deposits
Make sure to analyze an asset thoroughly and test your strategy on a Paper Trading account to ensure you're ready to navigate these risks.
