Hi Big Mike,

I need help with understanding the NinjaTrader ecosystem. From what i have gathered from multiple different sources (including some posts in this forum), i am starting to have a better idea, but i wonder whether there is an existing comprehensive guide on NinjaTrader? Explaining the role/choices of data provider (e.g. continuum), broker (introducing and FCM)?

Thanks

These days, if you are a new NinjaTrader customer, you pretty much have to use NinjaTrader Brokerage. It's similar to the TradeStation model. There is nothing wrong with that, you can read posts here and learn that people generally have a positive attitude towards NT Brokerage.

Agreed, they have worked fine for me. Their customer service, that is for platform, brokerage, etc., vie email is superb. Helping esk as well, only had to use it once to cancel an order due to loss of power and they responded on a fly.
Regards.
