Every so often someone asks what I recommend besides my own strategies — how to get set up on a funded account, what platform to run, how to connect the two. This page is where those answers live, and it's a short list on purpose.
Nobody paid for a spot here. Some of these tools are part of my daily setup; others I point people to because they solve a problem my clients run into, even when they're not part of my own chart. The list grows when I find something worth your time — and I'll always mark what earns me a commission.
Some links on this page are affiliate links, and each one is marked. If you buy through one, I earn a commission — it costs you nothing extra, the price is the same either way, and it doesn't change what I list here or what I say about it. Where a link is not an affiliate link, I say that too.
Connects NinjaTrader 8 straight to Rithmic-backed prop firm accounts — no bridge software, no middleware between your platform and the firm. You log in through NinjaTrader's own connection window and your credentials go directly from NinjaTrader to Rithmic; they never touch PropFirmConnector's servers. And the firm's guardrails don't move: daily loss limits, drawdown, all of it stays enforced on the Rithmic/firm side no matter what platform connects.
Who it's for: you're trading (or want to trade) a Rithmic-powered evaluation or funded account and want your NinjaTrader 8 setup — my suite or anything else — on it without wrestling a R|Api bridge.
Straight answer, since people ask: I'm not running PropFirmConnector on my own charts right now — my current setup doesn't call for it — so for the deep technical questions, their team is the right stop, not me. I point people here because the way it connects NinjaTrader to Rithmic-backed firms is clean and secure, and that's exactly the problem a lot of my clients are trying to solve.
