Is NinjaTrader API available to NinjaTrader Prop Firm Traders?

Trade API - General
1

Hi,

The following prop firms offer NinjaTrader as a platform and they allow automated trading:

  • My Funded Futures
  • Tradeify
  • FundedNext Futures
  • FundingTicks
  • The Trading Pit Futures

I want to use the NinjaTrader API from my own algorithmic trading system to trade with these prop firms.

Will signing up with these prop firms selecting NinjaTrader as the platform automatically provide me with access to the NinjaTrader API?

If not, can access to the NinjaTrader API be added after signing up by request?
Is there an addon cost involved?

Thank you
JJ

I would think so, but I don’t use their REST API. If not, a work around is to just create a socket or HTTP connection to the desktop application with a strategy accepting it. Then you can do whatever you want with it.
