NT7 - NT8 Brokerage Account

[Angus7]

I currently have an indicator that I use NT7 for & do some trading. I pay for continuum data fees on NT7 & use my Esignal to power NT8 for data fees. I would like to migrate over to do my trading on NT8 but I still need real data for my NT7 indicators.

How would you suggest I move forward?

Thanks

Hello Angus7,

Your brokerage account or data feed can be used (one at a time) with either NinjaTrader 7 or NinjaTrader 8.

Below is a publicly available link to the connection guides with steps to setup the connection.

To connect two instances of NinjaTrader simultaneously to the same account you would need to contact your broker and inquire if a second login can be set up for a second computer to connect simultaneously.

All NinjaScripts for NinjaTrader 7 are not compatible with NinjaTrader 8 and will need to be recoded for NinjaTrader 8.

Below is a link to a forum post where I have discussed this.

Also, below is a publicly available link to the migration guide.
