sure they do it for you - they hook you up with a vendor who is obviously making shit tones of money according to their actual results. then when you have picked your poison they will help you with completion of your euthanasia. what am i missing?

but out of goodness they will not make any money themselves by trading any systems right?

a clue.

They execute your strat code, through a broker you have chosen, to publicize it so that you may offer it out to the public. Of course they don't do it for nothing. Shocking right, that they want to turn a buck. So does someone who makes their trading results public through this service.

Are any of the systems worth a dime. Don't know, don't care. But there are obviously some who do thinks so with Striker at it for a while.

Hello. I’m Miguel Angel from Spain. I need some help to put the strategy in the production environment.

The strategy has been developed in C# with Ninjatrader, and getting the data from InteractiveBrokers. The strategy work fine less sometimes, that the data that comes from IB lose something, because they give me false signals. I can see that in the chart, that sometimes, the candles it’s not drawing fine, it like jumping.


When I Test the strategy with the data, that Ninjatrader offer in the demo, It always works fine. At this time, ninjatrader has not offer data from EUREX in demo.


I need some help to make the jump to put the strategy in production environment.

I ask too for Rithmic API in C#, they give access to the test environment, but at this time I can’t developed anything, just for time.


Wich suggestion they give me. Ninjatrader and Continuum or Kinetick or Rithmic??

Because the idea is to move the ninjatrader to VPS. I know that Rithmic has its own server..


I need some help, please…

There is no way for you to make the jump to put the strategy in production environment. This is a problem with both IB in how it provides the data and how NinjaTrader's server handle the data. I can't believe this problem is still existing. It's been there ever since IB started providing data to Ninja Trader; I have read numerous posts on that. Ninja Trader blames IB, IB blames NinjaTrader and neither wants to do something to resolve this problem.

The only solution: Don't use NinjaTrader for production EVER if you want to use IB's data or for trading in any situation. Unless you absolutely don't care, don't pay extra to buy those 3rd-party's data from like Kinetick or Rithmic which is what NinjaTrader wants you to do so it can get a commission cut in between. Those 3rd-party data is super expensive. Me, I just left NinjaTrader. I shouldn't have to pay extra for a defective product just to be able to use it when it's the provider's responsibility to fix it right. If I want to use 3rd-party data, I should do it on my own terms not because of being forced to use defective data due to the provider's negligence and greed.
 
Thanks to everyone to help me.

I have to say some things before. It's looks like I have a developed a strategy in Ninjatrader, I’ll test with the Strategy Analyser and a want to put it in the real world to make a lot of money. This it’s not true.


The first thing it’s that don’t use the strategy analyser, because I don’t believed so much in the result.

I have two ways two developed a strategy, or with the order book or on each tick that it income from the market. I don’t use “onbarUpdate” after closed the bar. I don’t really like. I prefer to take a decision on every tick.

The strategies has been tested in real wold with IG(CFD’s) but I don’t really like for the spread. And every strategy that I develop always is testing in paper trading every day for a long time.


The big problem that the IB has with the data, is that the data loose some information for the market, so in one tick of IB that it’s income, could be 10 ticks that income from Rithmic or another provider for NinjaTrader. So I can’t use for my strategy, because I don’t have the real information from the market.


Thanks.

My replies were strictly about what they do. Not whether or not what they do is legit. That is for those who use their service need to find out.

Hi!

Possible explanations/solutions to your problem:

"it’s not drawing fine, it like jumping." | This could be https://www.investopedia.com/university/charts/charts8.asp so check your data loading functions/service is perfect and is additionally cleansing the data to remove (and or replace) any gaps or null data.

So essentially if one dataset is working against your functions and another is not - the problem must be with the data.

Hopefully this helps. KR, tds.
 
Were we voting (which we're not), I'd vote to stay with IB_TWS_API, and cure the problem by curing the data: assemble/smooth the data with multiple reads. Compare reqHistorical to reqMktData (and any other available method). When there are no disagreements, then post to the intended chart (or other object).

IB's data collection/assembly/push has long been 'unique' and quirky (compared to, for example, Sierra Charts), but it's quick, it's simple, it's [nearly] free. And keeping things within the IB toolbox *should* mean lesser issues down the road, when versions of this/that/andtheother change. :confused:

Good luck!
