The short answer
121 prop firms and brokers reach NinjaTrader through Rithmic. 108 of them work with an entry NinjaTrader already ships, so nothing needs installing, you just need to know which one to choose. 13 have no entry in NinjaTrader at all, and our add-on registers one for them.
Built from Rithmic’s own configuration data, updated as each firm is confirmed.
How to tell if your account is on Rithmic
1
Look at your username. A hyphen, as in Apex-123456, means Rithmic. An underscore usually means Tradovate, and nothing on this page applies to it.
2
Check your welcome email. A separate username and password to type into a platform means Rithmic. A login to your firm’s own web platform usually does not.
3
Look in NinjaTrader. Control Center, then Connections, then Configure. If your firm told you to add Rithmic for NinjaTrader Brokerage, you are on Rithmic.

Run every prop firm account at the same time
NinjaTrader holds one Rithmic connection at a time. Unlimited Prop Firm Connections lifts the cap on any licence — every funded account you own, connected together, in one NinjaTrader instance.
Firms with an entry NinjaTrader already ships (78)
Nothing to install. The only trick is knowing which entry to choose, and several of these share the same generic Rithmic entry, which is exactly why traders assume their firm is unsupported.

Live Rithmic brokers (30)
Every one of these uses the stock Rithmic entries and none of them need anything installed. The live versus demo distinction is the thing that trips people up most often, so check that first if a connection is refused. Entries tagged FCM or IB are ones we have sourced from public broker directories rather than from Rithmic’s configuration data, so treat those as reported rather than verified.

Firms NinjaTrader has no entry for (13)
There is nothing to pick in the System list for these, because NinjaTrader does not ship one. Unlimited Prop Firm Connections registers the entry, using connection parameters read from Rithmic’s own configuration file. To be straight with you: that adds the entry to your dropdown, which is not the same as us having personally logged into every one of these firms. That is exactly why it carries a money-back guarantee.

Running more than one of these at the same time?
This is the part that catches everyone out. NinjaTrader allows one Rithmic connection at a time no matter how many firms you have saved, and that limit is set by NinjaTrader rather than by Rithmic. Unlimited Prop Firm Connections clears it, so several Rithmic firms stay logged in together in one NinjaTrader Desktop Platform installation.
