For the account connection to appear in the dropdown menu you probably need a later version of Ninja to see it. I had to upgrade from 7.x.x.11 to 7.x.x.26.

Can you help answer these questions from other members on NexusFi?
Thanks to the Ninja Brokerage management for working out these problems. They took the bull by the horns and worked it out. Thanks for the prompt response!
Is NT brokerage going to introduce the basic data package in January as mentioned earlier in this forum, the reference is to the package which does not include the debth for non professionals traders. The cost is guess is $3 per month as per cme.
The ability to offer a basic data package is in the control of our ISV partners CQG and Rithmic. Our understanding is that they are working on offering this capability but we have not been given a timeline when it will be ready. Once it is, NinjaTrader Brokerage will offer this to our clients as we think it will be a great way to reduce the impact of the pending CME market data fees for those traders who do not require market depth.

Can we get UB (Ultrabond) added as a product available to trade? If yes, can you give an approximate time until that product is available through Ninjatrader? Thanks.
While this market (UB - Ultrabond) is not part of our standard account setup, it is available upon request. Day-trading margins are $1000 per contract and it is available on both Continuum and Rithmic. If you would like to request this market be made available to you, please email [email protected] with your name and account number.

I am wondering how this lasted communication affects my costs as a lifetime license holder of NinjaTrader? Does this mean I only need to pay this fee and there is no minimum required through NTbrokerage? Am I exempted from this fee as a Lifetime NT license holder?
Dear Traders:
Effective January 1st, 2015, all users of real-time market data from CME Group exchanges (CME, CBOT, NYMEX, COMEX) will be required to pay market data fees. As a NinjaTrader Brokerage client, you can now customize your market data subscriptions to avoid any unnecessary fees from the CME.
To get started, please declare your trading status as a "Non-Professional" or "Professional" through the link below:
The majority of NinjaTrader Brokerage clients qualify as a "Non-Professional" and can select from one of the following market data subscription options:
1. Enable data for each of the CME Group exchanges you would like to receive at
a significantly reduced fee of $5/month per exchange.
2. Enable a market data bundle which includes all four exchanges for only $15/month.
3. Deactivate all CME Group exchange market data for your account to avoid a
CME Group data fee.
To ensure your account is updated, all self-certifications and market data subscription requests must be received by Wednesday, December 24th, 2014. Due to the required processing time, submissions received following this date may not be applied to your account in advance of the January CME Group billing cycle.
If you have any questions regarding the status you should declare, please contact us at [email protected].
I just got these response from NT customer support, they said the NT Platform only support six brokers now. Does that mean NT will terminate all the existing brokers except the "six". If this is correct, this is a big change and I am confused.
Could someone clarify.
Attached are the email from NT:

Hi James,
But that page only shows six brokers - IB, FXCM, etc. I thought the platform support others brokers too?
Or you now no longer support other brokers except only six.

Hello William,
This is correct, these are the brokers we currently support.
This is a new fee from CME Group and does not change any other details/charges from your NinjaTrader Brokerage account. As your Introducing Broker, NinjaTrader Brokerage is simply informing you of these fees that are coming direct from the CME Group. The exchange is going to be charging all traders industry-wide that are enabled for CME Group exchange market data (regardless of clearing firm or introducing broker).
The reason for our communication was to help NT Brokerage customers avoid any unnecessary charges. In this email, we are providing a process to reduce these fees by selecting only the CME market data you need to receive for your trading.
