AFT8 update 20251221 Signal OCO & AFT000 Hybrid Algo Chart Trader

December 21, 2025 by AFT

AFT8 Update release new Feature Announcement: Signal OCO + AFT000 Hybrid Algo Chart Trader for AFT version 2025.12.21


Signal OCO

Signal OCO for fully automated and hybrid automated trading signal execution control

Introducing Signal OCO (One-Cancels-the-Other) for your automated and hybrid algo trading modes
with AFT8 for NinjaTrader 8. This feature adds deterministic control over competing signals so
that once the first signal executes, the other is automatically disabled.

How it works

  • When Signal OCO is selected, whichever signal fires first will disable the other.
  • The primary signal can either:
    • Continue to fire normally, or
    • Be limited to 1 execution.
  • Signal OCO is located in the Algo Controller and NinjaBuddy Easy Trader.

Signal OCO is especially useful for reducing signal conflict, improving execution clarity, and supporting cleaner
automated or hybrid workflows.


AFT000 Hybrid Algo Chart Trader

When adding AFT000 to a chart, the NinjaBuddy Easy Trader GUI can be displayed
optionally. NinjaBuddy will attempt to bind to any running AFT Algo and AFT Trade Manager
that match the selected account and instrument.

What NinjaBuddy can do (current release)

  • Control the on-chart indicator
  • Control and manage signals and alerts
  • Bind to the AFT Algo Allow for the instrument
  • Bind to and AFT Trade Manager for the instrument
  • Provide advanced entry and trade management for hybrid trading

Next release: signal injection into the trade engine (planned).

Why this matters for hybrid day trading & prop trading

More critically, when NinjaBuddy is bound to an active algo and trade manager, it enables real-time hybrid control
similar to the inline Algo Controllers, but with additional advanced features designed specifically for
day trading and prop trading workflows.

  • Real-time hybrid control without restarting the algo
  • Faster chart-based operations for hybrid execution
  • Expanded controls formulated for active day trading environments& prop trading
  • Designed for fast precision prop & day trading control

AlgoFuturesTrader does not make recommendations for buying or selling any financial instruments, nor do we offer trading or investment advice. We are a software company, and we only provide educational information on ways to use our sophisticated Algo Futures trading tools. It is up to our customers & readers to make their own trading & investment decisions, or consult with a registered investment advisor.

Risk Disclosure: Futures, CFDs, & forex trading carry substantial risk and are not suitable for every investor. An investor could potentially lose all or more than the initial investment. Risk capital is money that can be lost without jeopardizing one's financial security or lifestyle. Only risk capital should be used for trading, and only those with sufficient risk capital should consider trading. Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results. Please read the full risk disclosure here.

Hypothetical performance results have many inherent limitations, some of which are described below. No representation is made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown. In fact, there are frequently sharp differences between hypothetical performance results and the actual results subsequently achieved by any particular trading program. One of the limitations of hypothetical performance results is that they are generally prepared with the benefit of hindsight. In addition, hypothetical trading does not involve financial risk, and no hypothetical trading record can completely account for the impact of financial risk in actual trading. For example, the ability to withstand losses or adhere to a particular trading program despite trading losses are material points that can adversely affect actual trading results. Numerous other factors related to the markets or the implementation of any specific trading program cannot be fully accounted for in the preparation of hypothetical performance results and can adversely affect trading results.
