You can see multiple prop firm accounts in one NinjaTrader installation, but accounts and logins are different. One Rithmic login can expose several accounts. NinjaTrader’s native limitation is one active Rithmic-based connection at a time, not one account in total. Separate simultaneous Rithmic logins require an additional solution such as PropFirmConnector.
Can you run multiple prop firm accounts in one NinjaTrader?#
NinjaTrader’s connection guide documents the single active Rithmic connection limit. First check whether all your accounts already appear under one login. If they do, the number of accounts alone does not establish a need for an add-on.
PropFirmConnector supports multiple independent Rithmic logins in one NinjaTrader instance, including supported account types without a native connection route. It provides connections, not order copying. To mirror orders, install and configure a separate copier such as Replikanto and confirm that each firm’s rules allow the intended use.
Which Rithmic prop firms work with NinjaTrader?#
Connection support depends on the account’s actual feed and credentials. PropFirmConnector’s Rithmic directory groups examples as follows:
| Account examples | Rithmic connection path described in the directory |
|---|---|
| Apex Trader Funding, Take Profit Trader, Bulenox, Elite Trader Funding, OneUp Trader | Native route for one active Rithmic login; add-on for separate simultaneous logins |
| Lucid and Tradeify Rithmic account types | Add-on route; their native NinjaTrader account options use a different connection path |
| DayTraders.com, PropShopTrader and Humble Futures Funding | Add-on route for the listed Rithmic accounts |
Check the linked firm guide and your provider’s current instructions before purchase or setup. Directory inclusion does not establish that every current account offering uses Rithmic.
How do you connect a Rithmic prop firm account to NinjaTrader?#
Follow the connection guide for your firm, particularly its System setting. The general sequence is:
- Activate the Rithmic account. Sign in to R|Trader Pro with the firm-issued credentials, accept pending market-data agreements and confirm the accounts appear.
- Install the add-on if needed. Close NinjaTrader, download PropFirmConnector from your account and copy its DLL into the documented NinjaTrader Custom folder. Restart and complete browser activation.
- Use the right credentials. Sign in to NinjaTrader itself with your NinjaTrader account. In Connections → configure, create the Rithmic connection using the firm’s Rithmic credentials. If configure is missing, enable Multi-provider mode and restart as described in NinjaTrader’s connection guide.
- Apply the firm’s settings. Choose the System value in its guide. PropFirmConnector’s guides specify leaving Connect on start up and Plug-in mode off for this setup.
- Confirm each connection. Check connection status and the accounts shown in NinjaTrader. Repeat for each separate login you intend to use.
Connection settings and software versions can change; use the current vendor guide when installing. Once connected, configure leader and follower accounts in your copier and test quantities and order behavior in simulation. The NinjaTrader copy trading guide covers that separate step.
Why run a multi-account NinjaTrader setup on a VPS?#
A Windows VPS hosts NinjaTrader, its connections and the local copier independently of your home computer. Remote Desktop lets you inspect that same installation from another device. Server restarts, application faults and provider outages can still interrupt it.
Size for the combined chart and add-on load, rather than assuming each account needs a fixed amount of RAM. See the NinjaTrader VPS sizing guide. For disconnected NinjaTrader feeds, we recommend Ninja Watchdog for supported reconnection and strategy recovery; verify copier and account state after an interruption.
