Step 1: Visit the Broker Sync Page

  • Go to the TradeZella broker sync page directly here.

  • Alternatively, navigate to the broker sync page by hovering over the sidebar, clicking on "Add Trade," and selecting "Broker Sync.

Step 2: Select NinjaTrader as Your Broker and Input Details

  • Click on "Add New Broker" on the broker sync page.

  • Choose "NinjaTrader" from the list of available brokers.

  • Leave the start date option blank to import all records or specify a custom start date if needed.

  • Select either "Live" or "Demo," depending on your account type.

Note: If your account doesn't appear, try selecting the opposite (Live or Demo). NinjaTrader sometimes classifies accounts under demo credentials even if they're live and vice versa. Selecting the correct option should resolve this issue.

  • Click "Connect."

⚠️ When you click “Connect,” a Tradovate window will pop up. This is expected since the Tradovate API is used for NinjaTrader accounts, as both operate under the same company. You’ll just need to enter your NinjaTrader account credentials in this Tradovate window.

Step 3: Authenticate and Sync

  • In the Tradovate pop-up window, enter your credentials for Ninjatrader.

  • If Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) is enabled, complete that process to proceed with the sync.

TradeZella will begin syncing your NinjaTrader account. You can monitor the sync status here on the broker sync page.

Troubleshooting Tips

  • Account Not Appearing: If your account doesn’t appear after syncing, try selecting the opposite option (Live or Demo).

  • NinjaTrader sometimes classifies accounts incorrectly, and switching this option should resolve the issue.

By following these steps, you'll have your NinjaTrader account seamlessly integrated with TradeZella for automated trade imports.
