I currently have Ninja Trader as my broker. I have found that I like Sierra Charts better for trading and want to switch to trading using Sierra’s DOM and chart trader. What broker does everyone use?

DOM charttrader has been on their developers list for many years. Hope someday we can get it and you can come back.

I too switched from NinjaTrader.... I regret immensely having spent any money on the software. It turned out that (at least version 8) is horrendously laggy to the point where when the market is moving fast, your entries and exits would be way off.

Anyway, they use Dorman as the actual broker for your account. I simply called Dorman and switched my account to use Sierra. You will have to submit another application, but you would have to do that regardless who you use.

Hope that helps.
