Spread GAIN

[mastercraft29]

Hello - I would like to find a way to determine what my spread was on an individual trade? I have checked with GAIN and they do not provide any report with this information. I have also looked through the NT platform and cannot find the cost anywhere. Please advise.

Thanks,

Josh

Hello mastercraft29,

Thank you for your post,

NinjaTrader does not store the spread, though Bid/Ask information can be viewed in the Tools > Historical Data Manager > Edit tab.

Let us know if we may assist further.

Sorry if this sounds rude, but this is insane. So basically I am trading blindly, never knowing what i paid or will pay for a trade? Between NT and GAIN, this should be addressed. There is no way other brokers and platforms do not inform their customers of the costs associated with trading.

Thank you Eric, I know it is not your fault. Can this be escalated higher so customers can have transparency when it comes to trading costs?

Thanks again,
Josh

My name is Ryan and I am the Level II Support Lead Hand. Thank you for your feedback. Currently as my colleague Eric has stated this is not a native feature to NinjaTrader. However, this may be achieved through a custom script. If you would like any resources regarding custom scripting or developers that may help you with this item I will be happy to assist you.
