Trading bridge with Broker APIs

[Shaya]

Hi,
I am new to NinjaTrader
NT doesn’t have a supported broker in my country. I like to develop a bridge which connect NT8 and broker using the HTTPS REST /JSON APIs given by broker.
The features should be like
1.Buy and Sell button
2.List current positions
3.Edit orders

when Buy button is pressed, preconfigured symbol and quantity should be bought at CMP.
The broker gives a secret key to access their API’s.

My questions are,
1.where to start? Any similar examples? (I am a programmer)
2.Any way to protect this code and How can I make this addon available based on subscription?

Hello Shaya,

Thanks for your post.

We do offer a DLL Interface that can be used to link NinjaTrader to another API through the External Data Feed. However this would only allow you to receive data. The DLL interface's Command function for submitting orders is so NinjaTrader can receive order submissions from an external application and handle them.

The DLL interface is provided as-is and support is limited to the resources available below.

Example application (Unsupported example) - https://ninjatrader.com/support/foru...442#post514442

If you would like to build an AddOn for allowing connections to your desired broker for full functionality, you will want to be building your own Connection Adapter. We do not openly support doing this, but allow certain members of our EcoSystem the ability to create Connection Adapters through our Open Connect program. If this is something that interests you, please reach out to our Business Development team at Info [at] ninjatraderecosystem [dot] com.

We look forward to being of further assistance.
