Thank you for the message.
If an account is not showing after following the steps below, this would mean the account is not being sent through the connection signal in the first place.
1. Please follow the steps below to update to the most recent version of NinjaTrader 8, version 8.1.4.2:
- Login into your NinjaTrader Account Dashboard
- Click "Download" in the bottom left-hand corner of the sidebar
- Select "Download" in the "Most Recent Release" section
- Once the installation is downloaded, ensure any previous version of NinjaTrader is closed before running the installation package.
2. After updating, please use the following steps to rename the database file so NinjaTrader automatically creates a new one:
- Close NinjaTrader
- Go to Documents folder > NinjaTrader 8 > db > NinjaTrader.sqlite, right-click on this file and select 'Rename' and change the name to "NinjaTrader Old.sqlite" and then click off of it anywhere to save the name change
3.After completing the update and renaming the database, you can log into the platform using the same username and password as your NinjaTrader Account Dashboard.
- Note: Updating NinjaTrader Desktop will not affect any custom configurations, workspaces, or add-ons.
- A visual walkthrough of the update process may be found here in our Help Center.
From here, if the account is still not showing once connected, then it isn't being sent by the provider and you would want to reach out to them directly to verify that it is active.
If you are using a Tradovate-based Account, Evaluation account, or Prop Firm Account, this should show within the NinjaTrader platform, but you can also review those performance statistics using the online Reports:
- How to access your Account Reports
- If it is a Live/Funded account:
- If you need further information on how to find this in R|Trader Pro, please ask the Evaluation/Prop firm provider directly.
If you are still having trouble with your connections or accounts showing after the information above, please use the following steps to send your log and trace files to the support team directly from your NinjaTrader Platform so we may investigate this behavior further:

- To: Set this to "Platform Technical Support"
- Subject: Copy and paste the Forum URL
- Attach: Attach a file, picture, or compressed file to share multiple files/pictures
