Which Trading Platforms Does TradeDay use?

Modified on Fri, 2 Jan at 9:04 AM

Click on any of the platforms below to learn more about each one.



Tradovate

Tradovate has proven itself as a fast, reliable, and stable platform. It has all the tools you need to get started and succeed, and it works across MAC OS, Windows, IOS, and Android.

You can also connect your own NinjaTrader, TradingView, and Jigsaw licenses to the Tradovate evaluation. 

The platforms run using the CQG data feed.

NinjaTrader

  • You can use a free version of NT8 that will be provided for you by NinjaTrader.
  • Or you can use your own Multi-broker license or Single-broker license.
  • If you have your own Single broker license it needs to be enabled with NinjaTrader as your broker. If it is enabled with another broker, contact them directly to make this switch or upgrade to a Multibroker license. 


Please note that using your own license will not reduce the commission costs. Click here to see commissions. 


Our version rides on the more stable CQG data feed and is free for all TradeDay members. 


It is also fully integrated with Tradovate - what you do on Ninja will appear on Tradovate, and what you do on Tradovate will appear on Ninja. 


This means you can now trade from home on Ninja, and check and make trades on the Tradovate mobile application when you are away from your desk!


Please note that NinjaTrader's own mobile application does not work with the evaluation account. 


NinjaTrader users can use their own license, but please note that using your license does not reduce the TradeDay commission costs. Click here to see commissions.

TradingView and Jigsaw

  • TradingView is free to connect, but you will need your own TradingView license 
  • Jigsaw is free to connect but you will need your own Jigsaw LIVE license 

TradingView and Jigsaw are two very popular trading tools for day traders.


TradingView and Jigsaw are available on the evaluation or funded account. Our trading platform, Tradovate, has full integration with these two tools. 


You will need your own TradingView license and Jigsaw license.


We have now made TradingView free to connect to Tradovate. Full instructions on how to integrate can be found here.


Jigsaw is free to integrate with Tradovate, full instructions can be found here.


Please note that on the funded account, if you would like to have Jigsaw and Tradovate opened at the same time, you will need 2 separate data feeds to run this setup.


Are you have issues with the Jigsaw connection?

Please make sure you have a LIVE Jigsaw license.

If you are experiencing issues with Jigsaw, and you know that your TradeDay Tradovate evaluation account is set up correctly, then you will need to contact Jigsaw support directly. But before you do, here are a couple of things to try and check first:

  1. Log out of everywhere (TradeDay, Tradovate, and Jigsaw), and then log back in again.
  2. Ensure your Jigsaw license is up to date, and if you have renewed it recently, please ensure the correct license key has been entered into the platform.
  3. A few users reported changing their password at TradeDay fixed the issue. If you change your TradeDay password, it automatically changes your Tradovate password. Log out of members.tradeday.com, and at login hit the 'forgot password' link. Please ensure you follow our password requirements carefully.
  4. A few users have been able to connect by first setting up NinjaTrader, and then connecting to Jigsaw using the Jigsaw platform bridge with NinjaTrader.
