The Problem: NT8 Rithmic Limits

If you are trading multiple prop firm accounts (like Apex or Topstep) that use different Rithmic credentials, you've likely hit a wall: NinjaTrader 8 only allows one active Rithmic connection at a time.

This can block an NT8-only copier setup when follower accounts require different Rithmic logins, unless your platform, broker, and data setup explicitly support the required concurrent sessions.

Common NT8 Constraint: One Active Rithmic Connection

The Solution: TradeBridge Cross-Platform

TradeBridge can solve this by connecting NinjaTrader 8 to Quantower. Quantower can support multi-connection workflows depending on your Quantower license, broker sponsorship, and data/feed provider rules.

  • Step 1: Connect your single Master Account to NinjaTrader 8. Use your favorite indicators and execute your trades here.
  • Step 2: Open Quantower and connect all your Follower Accounts (Apex, Topstep, etc.) simultaneously.
  • Step 3: Open TradeBridge. Select NT8 as your Master, and Quantower as your Followers.

When you take a trade in NT8, TradeBridge dispatches copied orders locally to enabled Quantower follower accounts. You get the charting workflow of NT8 and the connection scaling available through Quantower-supported multi-connection setups.
