When will NT support crypto trading?

[brownsfan019]

Not just a connection to Coinbase, but the ability to trade cryptos at brokers.

Is there an ETA for this yet?

Hello brownsfan019,

Thank you for your post.

We do not yet have any type of announcement on this feature yet. There are a number of technological considerations at play in implementing live cryptocurrency trading. For example, we would need to make changes to the way that the platform handles order quantities to allow for trading partial quantities (among other necessary changes that would need to be implemented).

We have an open feature request tracking interest behind fully supporting cryptocurrencies, and I will add your vote for this. The internal tracking ID for this request SFT-2334.

Thank you for your suggestion.

Feature Request Disclaimer

We receive many requests and cannot reasonably implement all requested features or changes. Interest is tracked internally and if enough interest is tracked, it would be weighed against how feasible it would be to make those changes to consider implementing.

When new features are implemented, they will be listed in the Release Notes page of the Help Guide. The ID number will be different than the internal feature request tracking ID, but the description of the feature will let you know if that feature has been implemented.

In other words, good luck. I've been around NT long enough to know the lingo around here.

It's unfortunate that a gigantic asset class is being ignored by NT. I'm not surprised though.

The only thing you have to change is to update the exchange driver to accept satoshi (or another minimal part of the coin) as the order size like you do for orders on the FX.


"The internal tracking ID for this request SFT-2334."
May I ask you add my vote for this feature, please?

This request have been asking for so long.

Even me also voted for this one LONG TIME AGO, but still do not have the news yet.
I don't think ninjatrader will establish the ability to trade cryptos within these 2 years.
My opinion is even longer.

Maybe you just find other platform for crypto.

Agreed, NT does not move fast on anything. It took years for them to roll out stocks.

FYI for anyone reading - you can at least trade BTC and ETH futures @ the CME. So there is at least something but clearly 2 futures contracts isn't sufficient in this space.
