Hello bomberone3,

I have submitted a feature request on your behalf for the NinjaTrader Development to consider supporting Directa.

Once I have a tracking ID for this request, I will post in this thread for future reference.

[bomberone3]

Thank's Chelsea,
Is there a road map or a pipeline where to see all progress about development? A web pages or something like Gant etc?

[NinjaTrader_ChelseaB]

Hello bomberone3,

I've received a tracking ID for your request.

Your request to add support for Directa is being tracked with ID #SFT-2384.

Please note, it is up to the NinjaTrader Development to decide if and when a request will be implemented.

If new features are implemented, the ID and a short description will appear in the release notes as new versions are released.

Unfortunately, there is no place to see what is being developed in NinjaTrader. All changes appear in the release notes after a new release.

OK ChelseaB,
please tell us when will be a decision to create the connection, .

Hello bomberone3,

There are no eta's on when a request will be implemented. It is up to the NinjaTrader Development to decide if and when a request will be implemented.

Unfortunately, due to the number of requests, we do not have a system to update clients when a feature request has been implemented.

Instead, as new releases of NinjaTrader are available, you can check the release notes for this ID.

Hi Chelsea,
Yes I know that are too many bug and feature request to track.

The others trading platform track and report everything in the website, for example :
BUG REPORT and FEATURE REQUEST

You could use also open source software that is ready to use.

Has NinjaTrader done anything on the side of integrating with Directa's api? Any support for this broker provider in the NT platform?

Thanks
E

Hello elisa,

Thank you for your post and welcome to the NinjaTrader Support Forum.

There is currently no implementation of the request API. I will add your vote to this for development's consideration.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

[elisa]

Yes, does the interface exposed by NTDirect.dll provide access to all functionalities both for analysis and transactions ?

Thanks
Elisa

Hello elisa,

Thank you for your response.

The DLL interface is not a full API such as those for brokerage technologies. You can find all the functions available at the following link: https://ninjatrader.com/support/help..._interface.htm

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Hello, I wanted to know if it was possible to use the Directa sim data feed for the ninjatrader, thanks

[NinjaTrader_Adrian]

Hello Spank,
Thank you for your post.

Yes, we do have a simulated data feed for the NinjaTrader platform. The Simulated Data Feed is a default Connection (Control Center > Connections) within NinjaTrader that provides an internally-generated market data feed for simulation trading.

The Trend Slider that appears when you connect to the Simulated Data Feed allows you to control which direction the market moves for predictability and replicable testing.

This connection can be used for:

• Offline simulated training and practice with NinjaTrader
• Offline testing of strategies
• Offline testing of trade automation using NinjaScript strategies or the NinjaTrader Automated Trading Interface

Note: This connection is a random internally generated market and has NO correlation to real market data

We always recommend practicing your ATM Strategies with the Sim101 account to ensure that they behave how you are expecting.

• Simulated Data Feed — NinjaTrader 8 Help Guide page with additional information, for your reference

Let me know if I may be of further assistance.
