Unlimited Prop Firm Connections

Unlimited Prop Firm Connections lets you connect and manage multiple Rithmic accounts at the same time, from one window. Once it is installed, open it from the Control Center (New, then Affordable Indicators, then Rithmic Connector), then connect each Rithmic prop firm in NinjaTrader's usual Connections window. Every firm stays connected side by side in one copy of NinjaTrader, using the logins you already have.

It depends on where the accounts are. Several accounts at the same prop firm usually sit on one Rithmic login, and that one connection already carries every account on it, so you need nothing extra. Accounts on different Rithmic logins each need their own connection, and NinjaTrader Desktop runs one Rithmic connection at a time. If your accounts are on more than one Rithmic login, Unlimited Prop Firm Connections lets you manage multiple Rithmic accounts at once, from one window.

The add-on itself sets no limit. Connecting a third or fourth Rithmic firm works the same way as the second, and we have run five or more Rithmic prop firms connected at the same time on one PC. What does limit you is your computer. What each Rithmic login allows is set by your prop firm's and Rithmic's own terms, so check those with them.

No. Traders are often told to use a VPS or a second PC because NinjaTrader Desktop runs one Rithmic connection at a time. With this add-on, the connections run side by side in one copy of NinjaTrader on the PC you already have, with your usual workspace and charts. It also runs on a VPS. Avoid opening the same Rithmic login in two places at once, because both sessions count against your firm's session limit.

Picking the wrong System entry is the most common Rithmic setup mistake. Many prop firm evaluation and demo accounts use "Rithmic Paper Trading (Chicago)", while live brokerage accounts use a "Rithmic 01" entry. The add-on tracks more than 100 prop firms and brokers, names the exact entry each one uses, live or demo, and adds the entry to NinjaTrader in one click when it is missing. It works with Rithmic for NinjaTrader Brokerage.

Yes, once the connections are open at the same time. If your accounts are on more than one Rithmic login, Unlimited Prop Firm Connections lets you manage multiple Rithmic accounts at once, from one window. A trade copier, such as the Accounts Dashboard Suite, then lets one master account drive follower accounts at completely different firms. NinjaTrader has never limited Tradovate connections.

Not to connect them. NinjaTrader has never limited Tradovate connections, so several Tradovate accounts already run side by side with nothing installed. For Tradovate, the add-on watches the API rate limits instead. Tradovate refuses orders over its limits (an hourly cap on new orders and a short burst limit on order changes), and a trade copier sends each order once per account, which adds up fast.

The Tradovate tab shows your order activity for the last 60 minutes, warns you the moment Tradovate refuses an order for its rate limit, and can try to close all your Tradovate positions in two clicks, or automatically after a rate-limit refusal if you switch that on. It cannot see how much of your limit is left, stop a limit from being reached, or guarantee an exit. It also covers NinjaTrader Brokerage accounts on NinjaTrader's own connection, which runs on Tradovate.

Yes. It runs on NinjaTrader 8.0.28.0 as well as the current 8.1 releases, and holding several Rithmic logins works the same on both. One difference: 8.0.28.0 has a fixed System list, so for firms that run their own Rithmic system the Find My Firm tab shows a How to Set Up button with that firm's steps instead of adding an entry. The 8.0.28.0 build is available after you buy, through your Members Area or live chat.
