Notice From June 2024 AFT is free for sim, replay and NinjaTrader demo account trading only paid for live and prop firm trading

May 29, 2024 by AFT

AFT is free for simulation, replay, and NinjaTrader demo account trading only, plus a 7-day live full-feature trading trial.

Notice: From June 2024, AFT is free for simulation, replay, and NinjaTrader demo account trading only. It will be paid for live and prop firm trading. Free evaluation trading is no longer available for the following reasons:

  1. It is mostly impossible to distinguish a prop firm evaluation trading account from a live trading performance account with many prop firms using Rithmic and Tradovate.
  2. Most prop firms did not pay; they took all the traffic but didn’t want to pay out, except for Apex, which was 100% trustworthy. Trading Legends is brand new and 100% trusted.
  3. It was also impossible to see who had used our coupon and who had not, so we could not reconcile who was contributing and who was using it for free.
  4. The prop firm payout sum of fees collected was too small, not even covering the cost of one monthly user subscription. Imagine over time hundreds of traders trying, not paying, and wanting support; this was not viable.
  5. Quality affiliate partners are being invited, and the question over referrals on prop firms can be isolated.

Transition for Those Affected

    • Please check your promotions in your pricing and subscriptions.
    • Get Funded Accelerator for Apex and Bulenox Evaluation

Win-Win Scenario

  1. AFT is free for simulation, replay, and NinjaTrader demo trading.
  2. 100% free for practice and to hone skills risk-free!
  3. Then, when ready to do an evaluation trading or go live, a license is required.
  4. A 7-day full-feature live account of any type will be available.
  5. Get Funded Accelerator for Apex and Bulenox Evaluation launching!

tip for the best results ninjatrader automated trading futures

May 28, 2024 by AFT

ninjatrader automated trading fully automatic

What can set you apart and put you in the top 20% of traders – the winners?

Get a routine and make it a habit; it will make you or break you! So make sure it is a good habit!

Have a Trade Plan:

  1. Define capital and risk per trade.
  2. Set trading goals and loss limits for the day and week.
  3. Select the system and instruments.
  4. Prepare system templates and workspaces.
  5. Schedule when to be at the trading desk, set the system in action, and know when to pause.

Pre-Session

  • Check the prior session and view a higher time frame analysis to get the bigger picture of the market.
  • Set a bias for the session, long or short.
  • Prepare the system with lots, risk, and limits for one trade or multiple trades.
  • Get the trade controllers ready for action with the controls you use at the ready.
  • Assess if the open is a high probability setup and entry.
  • Decide to go in with half clip or full risk according to your plan.
  • Decide whether to wait for the first 30 minutes, 5 minutes, or 1 minute of the open.

Tactics

  • Let trades run to the close – scale out.
  • Increase accuracy and limit drawdowns.
  • Use AlphaWebTrader for correlations and technicals.
  • Trade less, not more – trade smarter!

Trade Diary Stats and Notes

  • For each trade, make a screenshot of the entry and any other timeframes.
  • Note the levels, trends, and correlations of technicals, price cycles, and market news cycles.
  • Do this for the exits too, and note whether it was a winner or loser, mistake or fair trade.

Maintenance Routine
View help desk article on NinjaTrader Bars and Data

  1. Futures contract rollover.
  2. Instrument data
    1. Each day pre-session, download and get fresh data.
    2. Use the instrument manager and a list.
    3. Or refresh the data on the charts!

AFT Session Breakout needs 7 days of data downloaded to get the best consistent results of signals, range, and bars. To stay in sync across multiple desktop PCs, this task needs to be performed each day pre-session. Typically, download the last 2 days, and on weekends, download the last 7 to 7 days to get the corrections and backfills.

AFT8 update version 20240528 license hotfixes

May 28, 2024 by AFT

AFT v20240528 Hot Fixes for NinjaTrader Automated Trading

  1. Smoother startup and loading process – allows NT8 to start up and AFT8 to load before performing license checks.
  2. Previous versions of AFT8 would display a notice if a trader installed and used it in sim/demo mode without licenses. This has been changed to a notice that will only appear if NT is not a valid user license and there are connections to a live account or an unknown demo/prop evaluation account.
  3. Loading of licenses and verifications allows NT to start and load before checking.
  4. Popup notifications for license issues will only occur once per session of NinjaTrader Desktop after each restart. Components will display license issues if relevant.
  5. AFT Desktop and AWT Desktop are not started if they are not installed. If a user is using them for live trading or sim, there will be no attempt at loading or installation of desktop apps. This is purely left to the trader to follow and read the instructions in the popup or website get started info.
  6. As of this release, Apex Prop Firm support is enabled for free evaluation. Other prop firms require a license, free for users who use the ATS coupon.
  7. TradOvate prop firm support requires a license as there is no way to distinguish between a SIM and a prop firm account.
  8. AFT8 is free for Sim, Replay, BackTest, Historical, and TradOvate Demo accounts to allow a trader to view NinjaTrader Web and NinjaTrader Desktop simultaneously.
  9. AFT8 requires a license for all prop firms’ evaluation and performance, live real cash, or unknown demo accounts.
  10. AFT8 comes with a full live trading 7-day trial out of the box, accessible via downloading the AFT.Desktop app to sync the licenses.

Disclaimer: Trading & investment carry a high level of risk. 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.
