Tansitioning to a New Brokerage Account While Retaining ApexTrader Compatibility

[DN0601]

Until now, I have been using NinjaTrader with a license provided by ApexTrader (Rithmic data). Now, I would like to open a brokerage account with you but still have the option to trade with ApexTrader (Rithmic).

After opening a brokerage account, what steps do I need to take to ensure my platform doesn't use the ApexTrader license key? I understand that I should uninstall their version and delete the NT8 folder in Documents, then reinstall NinjaTrader. Is this correct?

Once I have a brokerage account with you, to continue trading with ApexTrader (Rithmic), will I need to purchase the "Multiple Broker Add-on for Desktop Platform" for $99 per month? I see on your website that this feature supports brokers like cTrader, FOREX.com/City Index, FXCM, and Interactive Brokers. Will this allow me to trade with ApexTrader?

Hello DN0601,

Thank you for posting.

When connecting to a NinjaTrader Brokerage account there are no changes that will need to be done within the platform other than creating your live NinjaTrader Brokerage connection once the account is ready for trading. You will not need to change the license key and once connected to both connections you will have access to both your Apex account and NinjaTrader Brokerage accounts within NinjaTader.

Also since your account will be with NinjaTrader Brokerage and your evaluation provider you will not be required to subscribe to the Multi Broker plan as this is only required for 3rd party brokers as well as some funded evaluation accounts.

Let me know if I may be of further assistance.
