What NinjaTrader is
NinjaTrader is a desktop futures trading platform (Windows) with charting, order flow tools and automated strategies. At prop firms it connects to the firm’s data and order routing, typically through Rithmic or Tradovate.
Firms that list NinjaTrader usually provide a licence for the evaluation and funded account, but the details (which connection, whether add-ons are allowed, any licence fee) differ per firm.

Platform and data fees
12 of these firms publish their monthly data or platform fee. All of them include it in the price. A licence for a desktop platform or an exchange data upgrade can still cost extra.
Choosing a firm by platform
Pick the platform first only if you depend on it: a set of custom indicators, automated strategies or an order-flow tool. Otherwise compare the rules first and check the platform second. Things to confirm:
- That the platform is available for both the evaluation and the funded account.
- Whether the platform is available in your country (some services are not offered to residents of certain countries).
- Any extra licence or data fee, and whether add-ons and automated strategies are allowed.
- The data feed behind the platform, which decides fills and the price the firm uses for its rules.
FAQ
Which prop firms offer NinjaTrader?
BluSky Trading, Blue Guardian, Bulenox, Earn2Trade, Elite Trader Funding, FundedNext Futures, FuturesElite, Legends Trading, Lucid Trading, OneUp Trader, Phidias Propfirm, Phoenix Trader Funding and 4 more. The table above compares them; open a firm for the full rules.
Is NinjaTrader available on funded accounts too?
Usually yes, but some firms move funded or live accounts to a different platform or connection. The firm page notes this when we verified it.
Is NinjaTrader free at prop firms?
Many futures firms include a NinjaTrader licence key or allow the free version for simulated accounts. Some charge for a licence on funded or live accounts. Check the firm’s platform page.
Does the platform affect my chances of passing?
Only indirectly. The rules (drawdown model, daily limit, target) matter far more. A platform you know well helps you avoid execution mistakes.
