ninja trader7 live trading?

[light7801]

Hi,

i saw this message when i was about to download ninja 7 :"NinjaScript Strategies: Please DO NOT run automated NinjaScript strategies on a live account as doing so can result in live order prices not correctly amended to reflect the prices coded in the strategy."

does that means that i cannot use ninja 7 for live auto trading now?

regards

EDIT: Please see Josh's response. It is currently not recommended to use NinjaTrader 7 beta for auto trading.

light7801,
you are right -- on NT7 downloadsite, you get this warnings :
Austin should have a look at this too

#2 – NinjaScript Strategies: Please DO NOT run automated NinjaScript strategies on a live account as doing so can result in live order prices not correctly amended to reflect the prices coded in the strategy.

Please note that even without that particular line item it is not recommended to trade live with NinjaTrader 7 since it is beta software. As beta software you may run across issues that crash your NT unexpectedly. If you are in the middle of a trade this could be detrimental to your account position if you can't close it because NT crashed.

hi josh, does that mean the official ninja trader 7 is not released yet? if that's the case when will it get released and will the live trading issues get fixed by then?

light8701, NinjaTrader 7 has not yet reached production status yet. It is currently in the beta stage, which is the precursor to a release candidate. There is no official word on when NT7 will make the transition from beta to a production release.
