Ninja Trader and Forex.. Looks dismal

[Magiklair]

Hello,
with the recent news of FXCM closing its US retail operations and transferring the accounts to Gain Capital. The future does not look good for those who use Ninja Trader and Forex..

This follows Interactive Brokers closing down its retail operations as well.

Yes, there is Gain Capital, but they look terrible based on the reviews.

Maybe Ninja Trader could look into offering Forex?

Thank you for your suggestion.

Hello,
I see Ninja Trader released a statement that they're going with Gain Capital.
Everyone I know is not going along with the transition.. Ninja trader is going to take a hit. It's probably the best trading software. But if you're going to trade Forex, you've given us no choice but to abandon Ninja Trader.. I hope Ninja Trader comes up with a solution that doesn't involve Gain Capital.

Best regards,
Brian

I traded with FOREX.com for quite some time and never had any issues with them. To include withdrawls. The only reason I left FOREX.com was because of NT8. NT8 could not be used with FOREX.com. Is this still the case?

Hello Brandenton,

Thank you for your note.

We are working a solution for our NT8 customers and we will provide updates as they are made available.
