👋 Which broker do you trade?

CrossTrade works on NinjaTrader 8 and on Tradovate. The two route orders differently, so the setup, the order types and a few of the tools differ. Pick yours and the rest of the docs follow it.

Runs on your machine

NinjaTrader 8

Orders route through the CrossTrade NT8 Add-On inside your NinjaTrader install. The largest surface: ATM strategies, NinjaScript, Signal Share between your own NT8 installs, manual chart trading.

Start with NinjaTrader 8

Runs in the cloud

Tradovate

Orders go straight to Tradovate's API. Nothing to install, nothing to keep open, no VPS. Your alerts fill whether or not your computer is on.

Start with Tradovate

Not sure yet? NinjaTrader 8 or Tradovate? lays out exactly which tools work where, so you can choose knowing what you get.

Trade both? One CrossTrade account handles both connections, and the Journal merges them into a single record.

Already know what you're after? The Set Up Guide, Webhooks and the CrossTrade API work the same on either broker.
