  • Introduction to E-Mini S&P500 - Beginner Guides & Glossary of Terms

    Here you will find our PDF's containing all you need to know about the E-Mini S&P500. While it is not essential to go through all of it in order to be able to trade, it is still a very useful document which you should make your way through in your spare time. Please see the "Downloadable Materials" section to download the PDF.

    There is also a PDF containing RDT Technical Analysis Terms.

  • Introduction to NinjaTrader Platform Fundamentals1:16
  • NinjaTrader 8 Download and Install3:30

    There are lots of questions as to where one might start with trading. Well, first things first-- we must download the platform that will even allow us to see the actual movement in the market. NinjaTrader is very customizable and reliable. The support is top-notch and prices are extremely reasonable.

    NOTE ABOUT THE DATA DEMO: It does say that it is free, but you will have to pay for the data once your free trial expires. It is an extremely affordable price and will be necessary until you are ready to fund your live account.

    Also know that, once your demo is over and until you have your live account, you will be 15 minutes behind the actual current market price. This will NOT disrupt your learning nor will it affect you once you go live. You probably wouldn't have even noticed a difference had I not told you just now. So don't let it worry you but definitely make sure you purchase the data so that you can continue to practice and learn!

    This video will walk you through the most commonly used buttons in NinjaTrader8 so that you know where to go for each and every action you need to take.

  • Dowloading and Install the RDT Indicators for NinjaTrader87:15

    Method 1:

    Do not open them after downloading them... The files will be zipped and need to remain that way for the install. They can only be used in 8. It will be a little bit of a process, but it is extremely important that you learn how to do this. When it comes to being independent and responsible, learning how to install and change the settings will be a key part of the whole process!

    Download Indicators for NT8 in the downloads section of this lesson.

    Once downloaded, you'll pull up the Control Center, click on Tools, Import, then NinjaScript Add-On... After which, you will select the files you just downloaded in order to have them in your indicator list. They will now be imported and usable! DO NOT OPEN THE ZIP FILE when you import it-- just import the entire zip my friends!


    FOR THE MACD BBs: I have changed my personal colors to darker than I originally had them created-- I liked the lighter colors but the white didn't show up as well--if you would like to use the same colors I am, they are TEAL for the Dots Rising and INDIGO for the Dots Falling

    If you already have workspaces and just need the indicator information, the closes on the bars (the dots) are the 1 SMA set to Black, Dot, Dot, 4 (although the size of the dot may vary depending on your Screen configuration - adjust the dot to suit your preference and match the sizing shown throughout the curriculum). Also, I have deleted the text in the "label" section because I find they can get in the way on your charts at time. It is up to you if you'd like to keep them.

    The other EMAs are the 55 and the 144. I always make the 144 thicker, that way when you match it with the next tick chart.

    The 144 (large) EMA on the 233 chart IS the 55 (small)EMA on the 1597chart.
    And the 144 (large) EMA on the 1597 chart IS the 55 (small)EMA on the 10946 chart.

    I know that's a little confusing, but it will make more sense as you go through the course in the EMA section. But to keep the flow of things, I use the same color to represent the EMA from one chart to another. (So that 144 EMA on the 233 chart and the 55 on the 1597 chart might both be the same color purple).


    NinjaTrader 8 ERROR MESSAGE : If you are seeing an error message stating that the indicators cannot load due to them being from an older version of NinjaTrader please follow the process in the video above to see how to delete and replace indicators. You will also need to complete a similar process with your workspaces. Please see the next section of the curriculum "Downloading and Install the Workspaces for NinjaTrader 8" for a walk through video showing the process of resetting your workspaces. You can complete both actions simultaneously to save yourself time.


    Method 2: Please watch the video above to see method 2 in which you manually copy and paste the indicators into the "indicators" folder


    .CS File

    In the download section I have included the Tick Counter as just the file itself (.cs). If you are having trouble where the Tick counter is not showing up, please try downloading the cs file and pasting it into your indicators folder (Method 2).

  • Downloading and Install the Workspaces for NinjaTrader84:51

    VERY IMPORTANT: To install a workspace click the Download button, CLOSE NINJATRADER, and unzip downloaded .zip file to Documents\NinjaTrader 8\workspaces\ folder.

    If you do not close NT, you will not be able to load the files.

    IF something happens to one of your charts and you accidentally delete it, you have a few options- you can close without saving and get it back OR you can go to the workspaces folder in your NinjaTrader8 Documents folder and recover it from there.

    All colors are customizable, so if you want to change them, you can-- BUT we have designed the EMAs so that the colors connect from one chart to another (which you will find out more about it through the course). Please consider going through the course and hearing how they connect before you choose to change colors.

    For this course, you will have access to all of the charts. It will include charts for both the ES and MES. Also, make sure you are in the current contract, which you can see located in the top left corner of the chart. It will say the month and the day. You will want to make sure it says the month that is ahead of us-- or the future month. If you are just opening your charts for the first time, if necessary, it will ask you to roll over your contracts. Say yes to this as it will be quick and easy through this process.

    Example: If the month you are in is currently October in the year 2021-- you want it to show the future contract of December 2021 (12-21)

    Loading the workspaces for the first time will take significantly longer due to having to load all historical chart data. Subsequent load times will be quicker.


    The ES will include the 233, 610, 1597, 4181, 10946, 28657, The Daily, The Control Center and The Trade Performance Log.


    The MES will include the 144, 377, 987, 2584, 6765, 177711, The Daily, The Control Center and The Trade Performance Log.

    ES Less Days to Load - use this workspace if your computer is fairly old / is struggling with Ninjatrader. It will have less days to load so will load a lot quicker, but for homework you will require more days to load.


    NinjaTrader 8 ERROR MESSAGE : If you are seeing an error message stating that the workspaces cannot load due to them being from an older version of NinjaTrader please follow the process in the video above to see how to reset the workspaces. You will also need to complete a similar process with your indicators. Please see the previous section of the curriculum "Downloading and Install the RDT Indicators for NinjaTrader 8" for a walk through video showing the process of resetting your indicators to fix this error message. You can complete both actions simultaneously to save yourself time.

  • Finding and Arranging Charts for Proper Use8:22

    In this video you will learn how to find your charts if they are offscreen. Then, once you bring them into the picture, you will learn how to arrange them (left to right/biggest to smallest), the combinations that best work together and what charts you will most likely need front and center.

    There will be a number of charts (which you will have less if you are in the Platform Fundamentals course) and knowing which ones to use are important. Knowing the order you should read them in, so you're reading like a book and have the best flow are extremely important as well. This video will help you to understand the how we put the patterns together so that each chart serves it purpose and how view them with the best cognitive ability.

  • Contract Rollover for Active Data with Current Contract, course setup for NT7:03

    When you open your charts, you will see whatever date the workspaces were saved in at that time. This will, most likely, not be the current contract date that will give you running/active data. This means, when you open your charts, even if you've done everything in the right steps, you may not see the charts moving.

    When this happens, it is a simple fix to "Rollover" your contracts and you MAY have already done this, because NinjaTrader will prompt you to do it when you first open charts in the expired contract. None-the-less, you may have not known what to do when that happened and chose to skip on the rollover. If this happened, no worries! We have you covered.

    This video will show you multiple, simple ways to rollover your contracts and have the current data. If you find you still have data issues after this, reach out to us or you can reach out to NinjaTrader support from the help button in the top right of your control center.


    You can find the current contract and contract rollover dates in the CME group website as well as the contract volumes to correctly time when to start trading the new contract.

  • Adjusting Indicators and Price Bars to Fit your Screen7:13

    Now that your charts are open and you can see what the indicators on them, you may notice the bars are a little small, or maybe the closes on the bars, or EVEN maybe the MACD dots are too small to really make out-- or maybe they're even too big. This video will show you how to deal with this in such a way that you make the chart fit your comfortability style.

    Do make sure you can really see what's going on BUT that you don't make things too big. We need that, "just right" center stage. Although, don't let me tell you what's right for you. You may require them be a bit bigger to see them more clearly or maybe you have a small screen and you need to shrink things down. Either way, make sure that everything is visible and readable across the screen so that you are able to see and match the flow across the charts.

  • Market Replay Walkthrough6:25

    In this lesson we are going to learn how you can do a market replay. You can do it in different ways. One of them is bar-by-bar, that is, going back in time and moving the chart bar by bar to identify opportunities and move at your own pace. By doing a market replay, like what you will see in this video, you can simulate and trade as if you were doing it in a live market!

    Do this as many times as necessary, enjoy the process and give yourself permission to make mistakes, because we ALL make mistakes with the intention of always improving. Just do what you have to do, do your best, learn every day and you will always be one step ahead. Remember that if you have questions, you can always contact us to resolve them.
