NT8 and FOREX.com

[Brandenton]

I've noticed that you have listed FOREX.COM/GAIN under the list of brokers when purchasing NT and doesn't mention NT 7 only. Does NT8 now integrate with FOREX.com? If not, is there a date for the integration to happen? Thanks.

Hello Brandenton,

At this time, NinjaTrader 8 does not have a connection adapter for FOREX.COM/GAIN. However, the NinjaTrader development is developing this adapter for NinjaTrader 8 and will be available in a future release.

There is no estimated time on when this adapter will be available.

We appreciate your patience while we work on getting this adapter ready for NinjaTrader 8.

Below I am providing a link to the connection guide for NinjaTrader 7.

I really enjoy NT8 and would not want to step back to NT7. Don't get me wrong NT7 is great, but NT8 rocks! I'll be patiently waiting. Thanks for the reply

Is anyone working on the connection adapter for Forex.com/
gain? Your original estimate was March 2017 and it is now May with nothing except this thread explaining what is going on. Any ideas?

NinjaTrader 8.0.6.1 was released a few weeks back that includes support for FOREX.com.

The connection to Forex.Com is still in Beta, correct?

Thanks!!

Hello GibbsB613,

Yes, the Forex.com connection in NinjaTrader 8.0.6.1 is still in Beta.

This may change in a future version of NinjaTrader.

This may change in the future?? I should hope so since Ninjatrader wants us to buy their product. Or do you expect us to buy a beta product!!!!

why

hi comment from Gibbs brings up a question.
What are the vibes at NT about rolling out your product that well according to all the posts in this forum was not ready. Maybe I misspeak but out of curiousity have begun perusing other platforms support threads and cannot find any that compare so irresponsibly as here.
Again what is your take NT about where you stand with NT8?

Hello GibbsB613,

Thank you for your note.

NinjaTrader 8 is not in Beta, however the Forex.com connection for NinjaTrader 8 is still being beta tested. Beta testing is something that you do not have to perform if you do not want to.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Hello billywantstoknow,

Thank you for your post and welcome to the NinjaTrader support forum!

NinjaTrader 8 is not in beta, but the connection for Forex.com is. Due to recent changes in the industry a provider that was available for Forex in the United States is no longer and has transitioned their accounts in the United States to another provider (Gain/Forex.com). This of course means a change in the connection technology used as well.

We thank you for your patience during the beta testing of the Gain/Forex.com connection technology for NinjaTrader 8.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Hello, could you clarify what does a Beta connection means? Does it allow to live trade or is it only for demo accounts?

I have a live Forex.com account but when I enter the login credentials it gives a login failed message.

Thanks for your help

Hello cesario1234,

Thank you for your post.

BETA would mean you could trade live but the connection is still being tested at this time. If you do decide to use the connection in BETA please inform us of any items you run into that are unexpected.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
