    NinjaTrader Licensing FAQs

    Yes, to support integrated multi-device trading, all platform features (except Order Flow +) are now available for free across all NinjaTrader account plans.  To use Chart Trader and unlock additional features, you can update to the latest release of NinjaTrader Desktop (v. 8.1). Order Flow + is included with a Lifetime account plan or can be purchased as an additional add-on for Free and Monthly account plans.

    Upon install and log in, you will have access to Chart Trader and additional features across NinjaTrader Desktop and NinjaTrader Web.
    You have two options to access to the new account plans through your NinjaTrader account dashboard:
    • Download and upgrade to the latest version of NinjaTrader Desktop (v. 8.1) which will automatically migrate your legacy NinjaTrader license key and unlock access to the new account plans.
    • Manually submit your legacy NinjaTrader license key through the account dashboard to unlock access to the new account plans.
    You can access the Account Plans menu through the blue personal “Settings” icon in the upper right-hand corner of your account dashboard. From here you can either update the plan for your account if you have updated to NinjaTrader Desktop (v. 8.1) or manually import your existing license key as outlined in Option Two above.
    Please contact our Client Services team for assistance to transition your PayPal subscription and update your account plan.

Futures, options, foreign currency, digital asset, and event contract trading involves substantial risk and is not suitable for everyone. An investor may lose all or more than the initial investment. Trading should be undertaken only with risk capital—funds that can be lost without jeopardizing one’s financial security or lifestyle—and only by those who can afford such losses. Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results. Prior to trading digital assets, review the CFTC and NFA advisories for additional information regarding the significant risks involved. View Risk Disclosure Statement.
