AFT8 Version 2023.9.18.1 service release

September 12, 2023 by AFT

AFT8 Version 2023.9.12.3 released
Added in fixes to assist with NT8 behavior whereby orders freeze – usually with a Tradovate connection or the new NinjaTrade connections when using a trader copier! AFT8 has solved this so you do not need to reset your account and lose tour stats or re-install NinjaTrader 8, yet another reason why AFT8 is the best trading system for ninjaTrader

NinjaTrader frozen orders or locked up prop firm trading
Very rare but since the launch of the new NinjaTrader and connection options we have seen some trouble reported that required a restart or reset of NinjaTrader, in all cases the use of trader copiers and evaluation trading, especially with the new NT8 and Tradovate/NT New style connections. AFT trade safety system now monitors all accounts and orders for stuck orders and will cancel and remove them -and also on start remove and fix all stuck orders Usually NT Support will say reset the database and that works ok until you get more stuck orders- no need AFT8 will untangle it.

Best of Both Worlds web and desktop
It is recommended to always use Tradovate web, Rithmic web, CQG web, or NinjaTrader web alongside NT8. Hence, you get the best of both worlds and liquidate positions utilizing the web or even enter – AFT8 can then add in the exits on the desktop via the trade manager. AFT8 allows you to stop and restart NinjaTrader 8 and carry on from where it left off, this is not possible on other systems.

Trades Per Session
The automated trading entry system module to limit the number of signals taken in semi or fully-automated mode has been polished for signal executions for a daily/weekly session as a pre-cursor to trading session $ and % goals for win/loss limits.

Trade Signal Time to live

NinjaTrader 8 is a beast and genius but the caveat is it requires high spec low latency and usage of asynchronous methods to avoid foul-ups and missed or delayed trades, AFT8 has taken this to a new level with concurrency of signal queues and signal time to live -so the signal will be stored and processed using AFT8’s parallel asynchronous trading engine – so the ticks and charts are not slowed down pending signal execution and order processing.

NinjaTrader 8 Playback Mode
AFT8 has been tweaked to allow better replay speed, but overall it is not designed for backtest and replay so speeds will result in slippage due to asynchronous parallel task signal processing which means several bars could print while the signal queue is being processed – going forward a dedicated strategy will be provided for backtest/optimization and replay which will provide synchronous on bar processing which is fantastic for low loads and testing modes.

AFT Workspaces
Split out into basic 001, 002, 003, and 004 VIP charts have advanced views to allow more accessible learning. The caveat is this update will remove 004 from your system and will need explicitly installing – There will be some traders with reports of missing templates and workspaces – these are found in your https://account.algotradingsystems.net/Secure/Downloads

Algo Entry/Workspace breaking Changes For Trend Trader
Please note the Trade Signal Modes have been reorganized to match a uniform order in AFT.
Mode4 is now Mode8 for USATTrend Algo Entry

AFT8 version 2023.7.21 service release

July 21, 2023 by AFT

AFT8 version 2023.7.21 is a service release for AFT8 version 2023.7.20.

Bug Fix for System.IO.FileNotFoundException

Error:>System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not load file or assembly ‘System.Text.Json,

Technically the reason is some PCs were lacking some resources required for .net standard and so parts of 2023.7.20 had to be rolled back to use backwards compatible .net 4.8 serialization legacy tech newtonsoft.

Therefore a missing file error was logged and prevented licensing’s to be read and applied.
Error trace : >Error:>System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not load file or assembly ‘System.Text.Json, Version=7.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=cc7b13ffcd2ddd51’ or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.”

Apologies for those effected it was tested on various desktops and servers and only had issues on some hence why its slipped through the net.. but lesson learnt and noted so we can avoid similar issues with modern tech and legacy.

Code and Workspaces Breaking changes and output changes

  • Market Analyzer Column AFT Algo Signal Modes – now bitwise flags are used to allow multiple sets of signal indicators at the same time. – Trade Signal Mode -0:Off, 1:AFT001Algo-SignalsCombo, 2:AFT002Algo-SignalsGenerics, 4:AFT100-FibGrid, 8:AFT101-USAR, 16:AFT102-DynTrend, 1048576:SignalExec TestMode
  • All Errors and output can be found in the NinjaTrader 8\Trace folder

We are forging on ahead with our other techs we are at the cutting edge as its proven reliable. Net 70 and now .net 8.0 is under scrutiny, we will be moving more and more modules to the cloud and modern desktop app and mobile, web technologies over the course of 2023 to 2024 so we can minimize the impact of technology and be ahead of the curve of any changes ahead.

Hypothetical performance results have many inherent limitations, some of which are described below. No representation is being 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 & 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, & no hypothetical trading record can completely account for the impact of financial risk of actual trading. for example, the ability to withstand losses or to adhere to a particular trading program in spite of trading losses are material points which can also adversely affect actual trading results. There are numerous other factors related to the markets in general or to the implementation of any specific trading program which cannot be fully accounted for in the preparation of hypothetical performance results & all which can adversely affect trading results.
