I'm curious to hear y'all's thoughts on the future of distributed retail trading platforms such as NinjaTrader. My only current justification for using NinjaTrader is strategy automation and being already very proficient with NinjaScript, but admittedly I'm not aware of the full capabilities of the likes of Trading View and how advantageous NT really still is in the automation department. Are we going to see web-based platforms begin to dominate even the retail algo/automation space in the next several years?
I'm trying to position my skills sets with where tech is headed. Thanks for your thoughts!
Can you help answer these questions from other members on NexusFi?
I cannot imagine web browser platforms taking over. I am not a fan. The tech may or may not be moving in that direction but I'm staying with NT or similar as long as I can. I can't imagine a browser being as fast.
Did you call them to see if they would port it to the new broker? As long as it is one that supports NT, I was told they would switch it to my new broker. I haven't tried that though.
I’m a big fan of Tradovate. It has all the things I need and works great no matter what operating system I’m using. There’s nothing slow about it and I don’t have to pay for a license.
Anyway, as Computer Engineer, I think a desktop applications is always better than a web browser app..... Better control, no interference with browser, javascript, pulggins, ...
