Affordable Indicators

Indicators and Add-Ons for NinjaTrader

Affordable Indicators is a software development company specializing in tools for the NinjaTrader trading platform. Its catalog includes indicators, a trade copier with risk management, and add-ons aimed at futures traders. The firm presents itself as a partner of the NinjaTrader ecosystem, and its products are designed for the desktop version of the platform.

The lead developer, Joel Ryan Wyse, has been writing NinjaScript code since 2008, underpinning more than 18 years of experience programming on this platform. The company states it has served more than 8,000 traders, and its tools are used in over 90 countries.

Trade Copier and Risk Manager

The flagship product is the Accounts Dashboard, a trade copier and risk manager for NinjaTrader that allows trades to be replicated across multiple accounts. The system supports connections to NinjaTrader, TradingView, Tradovate, and Rithmic, and is designed for traders managing multiple accounts, including those of prop firms.

Its per-account configurable features include:

• Selection of contract type (micro or mini) for each follower account, with the option to combine them according to each account's rules.
• Position size scaling: a one-contract trade on the master account can be replicated multiplied by 5 or by 10 on follower accounts.
• Custom daily loss limits and profit targets per account, with automatic liquidation of positions and trading halt when either threshold is reached.
• Funded account target: when a follower account reaches the set cumulative profit, it closes automatically and stops trading.
• Other features such as fade mode, maximum drawdown lockout, and ATM strategies.

The copier offers two synchronization modes. Executions mode replicates completed trades from the master account to followers at the moment they are filled, placing market orders across all accounts and keeping positions aligned. Orders mode actively places, modifies, and cancels orders to maintain real-time alignment; each entry generates a dedicated ATM strategy for each follower account, with individual control of stop loss and profit targets, and is designed to remain stable even during connectivity interruptions.

The company also offers a solution to connect unlimited Rithmic-based prop firm accounts to NinjaTrader, since the desktop platform connects only one Rithmic account at a time. This allows all such accounts to be traded simultaneously in a single instance of NinjaTrader 8.

Indicators, Chart Trader, and Order Flow

The catalog includes more than 25 indicators for NinjaTrader, developed from interaction with traders and the company's experience in futures trading. Its methods focus on support and resistance signals.

The Enhanced Chart Trader is designed to replace NinjaTrader's standard Chart Trader and make it easier to manage trades in the chart window, adding extra features. Impact Order Flow, meanwhile, analyzes tick-by-tick data to generate a dynamic visualization of the details that influence trading decisions, providing insight into real-time buying and selling activity.

NinjaScript Programming and Trader Resources

In addition to its product catalog, the company offers NinjaScript programming services, leveraging the platform's customization capabilities. With more than 18 years of experience, the team develops custom solutions that would not be possible on other platforms.

The firm also maintains a library of informative articles on NinjaTrader, prop firms, and basic market concepts, aimed at both beginners and experienced traders. Its tools are geared toward futures traders, and the company states that its approach is based on transparency and avoiding unrealistic promises.

Reach and Ratings

According to the company's own data, its tools are used in more than 90 countries, and it has more than 8,000 customers. On Trustpilot, it maintains a rating of 4.8 out of 5. Support is provided Monday through Friday, from 8:00 to 18:00 (Eastern Time). The company warns that published testimonials may not be representative of other clients and do not guarantee future results.
