NinjaTrader is a windows application which relies on the .NET Framework to operate and the .NET Framework is only available on Windows Operating System. Below you will find the supported minimum PC requirements for NinjaTrader.

While we do not officially support running NinjaTrader on a Mac; we have had many clients run NinjaTrader on Mac hardware. We have specific installation instructions for Parallels and VMWare Fusion which will allow you to run NinjaTrader on your Mac. Below you will find instructions specific to the available options of running NinjaTrader on a Mac computer.


If you are using Parallels 6, please contact us for specific instructions. http://kb.parallels.com/en/4923

Unfortunately, running NinjaTrader on a Linux PC is currently not supported. I will, however, forward a suggestion to support Linux on to my development team for further consideration.

as far as I understand NT supports only english language?

Close at time - what does thos order mean?

Simulated order - I can use it on live account and it will be executed as a demo order or no?

What is the difference between static and dynamic DOM?

[NinjaTrader_ChristopherJ]

1. Currently NinjaTrader is only offered in English however we appreciate your feedback and have assigned this feature request ID #1688 in our tracking system.

2. This will close the order out at Market at the time input under Tools-->Options-->Misc. tab.

3. A Simulated Order is an order held locally on your PC until triggered which at that time is then submitted to the broker for execution. I have provided a link below to our Help Guide that goes over Simulated Orders:

To submit order to a simulation account the Sim101 account may be used within NinjaTrader.

4. I have provided a link below to our Help Guide that goes over the difference between the Dynamic and Static SuperDOM in depth:
