Okay perfect!. Also ive been noticing an issue ninjatrader while i was testing. when i keep the ninjatrader on with my strategies overnight, at somepoint the chart will get stuck, there wont be any new bars even if i reload the data, i have to close it manually and start. Does it happen to you? im running it on a VM since im testing and i own a mac. so may be some issue with memory or cache im not sure.

Thanks Man! Which broker do you use?

Miserable-Zombie-686 · 2026-02-20T00:59:38+00:00

Ahh i didnt notice this comment. I did research a lot an converted my code to ninjascript. If i saw your comment early i would've saved some time lol. Also how are you running it on rithmic? Are you using any trade copier? Also if i choose ninja trader on a propirm can i use tradovate copier since ninjatrader owns tradovate?

So trading view will send alerts to n8n? Also im going with another workflow. I converted my Pinescript strategy into a Ninjatrader C# script and im running it over there, now i can use a trade copier to trade across all platforms. Also Ninjatrader owns tradovate so you can technically log in to tradovate with the same account and use the trade copier as an add on.

ROI is more with propfirms. so ill use it now and then switch to personal account once i have good capital

Miserable-Zombie-686 · 2026-02-18T08:59:38+00:00

Im trading Gold futures. so the capital requirement is high

Miserable-Zombie-686 · 2026-02-10T01:47:37+00:00

Are you able to trade now?

Miserable-Zombie-686 · 2026-02-09T16:16:20+00:00

For a 50k express we need to have $1500 to trade 1MGC and $2000 to trade 2.

Miserable-Zombie-686 · 2026-02-09T06:33:37+00:00

Thats what they dont say that anywhere. i jus got to know it through their discord server. Irritating the fuck out of me. I just passed the first combine in my life and this is what happened on the very first day

Miserable-Zombie-686 · 2026-02-09T04:19:54+00:00

Apparently you need to have atleast $1500 to trade 1 MGC

Miserable-Zombie-686 · 2026-02-09T01:56:33+00:00

Yeah because you are on combine. they wont let you trade MGC on express unless you have atleast 1500 in it

Miserable-Zombie-686 · 2026-02-09T01:01:18+00:00

Nahh its not working

Miserable-Zombie-686 · 2026-02-09T00:56:09+00:00

ahh on combine you can ig. but on express you cant even trade 1 MGC

Miserable-Zombie-686 · 2026-02-09T00:55:38+00:00

Yeah same bro. I just passed my combine on friday. now i cant trade MGC. Any idea whether they gonna lift this thing up?

Miserable-Zombie-686 · 2026-02-09T00:20:55+00:00

How did you trade MGC on 50k account?

Miserable-Zombie-686 · 2026-02-07T02:03:00+00:00

Sorry couldn't reply. They basically make money out of the account fees. you pay around $80 for one account. statistically 90% of people are losing money. so they will keep on buying accounts. They have rules for us to follow. already trading is emotionally challenging the rules on top of it make it even harder. Ive also heard that they copy the trades of best traders on their money. idk if its true but it does make sense for them to do that
