Hey traders, I’m proud to announce the Emini Academy’s “MAP Trading Strategy” now works with NinjaTrader!  Their user-friendly order entry matrix and charting makes it a great tool for professional emini traders.  So now all Emini Academy traders will have the choice between TradeStation and NinjaTrader…

Here are a couple benefits I really like about NinjaTrader:

1) Super-user-friendly matrix- The NinjaTrader matrix (or dom) is a great tool to quickly and efficiently execute orders.  Unlike TradeStation, you don’t have to worry about “ghost orders” when closing part of a position or reversing.

2)  Chart trading- You can actually place trades from your chart, and manage stops/profit targets from a visual line on your chart.  Watch the trading video below to see this in action.

3) Market replay- Have you ever wanted to go back and “re-trade” an area or an entire day?  Now you can!  Previously we were using Camtasia to record the market and go back to watch areas or “re-trade” a setup.  But with Ninja you can actually use the matrix and chart trader to execute historical charts like it’s real-time.  Oh, and the fast-forward feature is really nice… if you’re a slow period in the market you can fast forward up to 500x market speed to move to a tradeable area.  Talk about cutting down your learning curve!

4) Zen-fire data feed- It’s no secret that TradeStation’s data feed is a dinosaur compared to the Zen Fire feed.  If you’re trading “tick charts”, then Zen Fire gives you the most accurate information coming from the exchange.

A few of our students have asked if they should make the switch to NinjaTrader or just stay with TradeStation.  If you like TradeStation and have no desire to learn another platform then by all means, stay with TradeStation.  But if you want to take advantage of the benefits listed below, why not give it a shot?  You can actually get NinjaTrader for free!  Granted, the free version is missing a couple features like automatic stops, but it’s great for testing out the feed.
