Is Ninja/Zen Fast Enough for EMini Futures Trading

Recommended Posts

Hello-

I am in the process of setting up my trading system for Futures. I am little reluctant to proceed with Trade Station because of the data problems I've been reading about with them lately. I am thinking of using Ninja/Zen and either Mirus or Velocity Futures as the broker.

 

I'd like to know your experience with the speed of getting data and placing orders with such a Ninja based system - since most of the work in Ninja (especially for advanced orders) is done client side and not Server side.

 

Do you find you miss opportunities, get bad fills or does it seem to be fast enough to allow you to be competitive.

 

Thanks

Khepfere

Is there a reason you made 3 posts all with the same text? I deleted 2 of them and this one needs to stay productive or you may see this vanish as well.

 

Please keep on track and don't spam here.

 

Thanks

I 'm with Nt also but thru mirus.

The feed and platform is great for day trading the eminis.

 

Amp is good but I would say customer service is only abt 5% better.

 

Reckon amp comms are better than mirus. Nt is not exactly free which is

false advertising. Every little thing like dynamic dom will cost.

Guess its the least of the evils out there at the moment.

I ve been with Amp futures/Zenfire and Ninja. Most of these guys were former floor traders and a guy named Collins has been so helpful and supportive with any issues I had with Ninja charting setups etc.

And that is what turned me off to NT. It's not free, regardless of what anyone may say. If it was free, how could NT stay in business, right?

 

So just keep that in mind when comparison shopping. You want stability and reliability, but you also should watch your business expenses. IMO Open ECry offers a very attractive free option that is also very solid. I came from a platform that I was paying $500/mo for and have to say that OEC has been great to me.

I think Ninja is great for newbies (because it is free to demo), and the cost is very reasonable, imho. I know of a trader who uses Ninja for charting and data (using a free demo), and places orders through another setup, if you're completely averse to fees.

Guess I must be a newbie then -))))

 

Agree with brownsfan. Check out the hidden costs in NT.

With a free lisc from amp u can't even access market wizard / or strategies.

With many providing bracket orders inclusive in fees, NT makes u buy the lisc.

 

Then there's all the little bugs u might experience. Go read their forum and see what the major questions are.

 

But eotrop indis will be available for NT in abt a mth I think. Thats if u're into the indis.

 

But to be fair its a maturing platform. So am giving it some rope.

    • “If the West finds itself falling behind in AI, it won’t be due to a lack of technological prowess or resources. It won’t be because we weren’t smart enough or didn’t move fast enough. It will be because of something many of our Eastern counterparts don’t share with us: fear of AI.   The root of the West's fear of AI can no doubt be traced back to decades of Hollywood movies and books that have consistently depicted AI as a threat to humanity. From the iconic "Terminator" franchise to the more recent "Ex Machina," we have been conditioned to view AI as an adversary, a force that will ultimately turn against us.   In contrast, Eastern cultures have a WAY different attitude towards AI. As UN AI Advisor Neil Sahota points out, "In Eastern culture, movies, and books, they've always seen AI and robots as helpers and assistants, as a tool to be used to further the benefit of humans."   This positive outlook on AI has allowed countries like Japan, South Korea, and China to forge ahead with AI development, including in areas like healthcare, where AI is being used to improve the quality of services.   The West's fear of AI is not only shaping public opinion but also influencing policy decisions and regulatory frameworks. The European Union, for example, recently introduced AI legislation prioritizing heavy-handed protection over supporting innovation.   While such measures might be well-intentioned, they risk stifling AI development and innovation, making it harder for Western companies and researchers to compete.   Among the nations leading common-sense AI regulation, one stands out for now: Singapore.” – Chris C Profits from free accurate cryptos signals: https://www.predictmag.com/
