Intro to NT8

The NinjaTrader section will walk through ATM strategies, optimization, and MPM.

NinjaTrader 8 is the desktop platform of choice for millions of futures traders around the world and is widely used by the proprietary trading world. CrossTrade was purpose-built to extend the power of NinjaTrader 8. By allowing you to run NinjaTrader in a headless, chartless state, CrossTrade dramatically reduces memory usage and improves system performance, especially during high-volume trading windows. Our automation bridge lets you fire off trades from TradingView or custom alerts directly into NinjaTrader’s execution engine, freeing you from the limitations of traditional desktop workflows.
