Getting Started

Everything you need to install, configure, and start using TradeGreater add-ons on NinjaTrader 8.

Quick Navigation

System Requirements

You'll Need

Installation

All TradeGreater add-ons install the same way. This process takes about 30 seconds.

1

Download the .cs File

After purchasing on Whop, download the .cs file from your Whop dashboard. You'll get one file per add-on.

2

Close NinjaTrader

Make sure NinjaTrader 8 is fully closed before copying files.

3

Copy to the AddOns Folder

Place the .cs file into your NinjaTrader custom AddOns directory:

Documents\NinjaTrader 8\bin\Custom\AddOns\

For the Order Line Decorator (which is an indicator), place it in:

Documents\NinjaTrader 8\bin\Custom\Indicators\
4

Open NinjaTrader & Compile

Launch NinjaTrader 8. It will automatically detect the new file. If it doesn't compile automatically, go to:

NinjaTrader Control Center → Tools → NinjaScript Editor → Right-click → Compile

You should see a green checkmark in the Output window. If you see errors, check our Discord for help.

Updating? To update an add-on, simply replace the old .cs file with the new one and recompile. Your settings will be preserved.

Activating Your License

1

Get Your License Key

After purchase, your license key is delivered via Whop. Copy it from your Whop dashboard.

2

Create the License File

Create a text file named license.txt in your NinjaTrader directory:

Documents\NinjaTrader 8\license.txt

Paste your license key as the only content in this file and save.

3

Restart NinjaTrader

Close and reopen NinjaTrader. The add-on will validate your license automatically on startup. Check the NinjaTrader Output window for a "LICENSE VALIDATED" message.

License is tied to your hardware. Each license is bound to one machine. If you change computers, contact us on Discord to transfer your license.

Breakeven Chart Trader

Automated Stop Loss & Profit Management

$79
1

Locate the Button

After installation, open any chart with Chart Trader visible (the order panel on the right side of the chart). You'll see a new BE button added to the Chart Trader panel with a dropdown arrow.

2

Click the BE Button

Click the button to open the dropdown menu. You'll see these sections:

  • AUTO BREAKEVEN — Move stop to entry + offset (1 tick, 5, 10, 25, or 50 pts)
  • TAKE PROFIT — Close at fixed profit targets (10, 25, 50, 100 pts)
  • TRAILING STOP — Trail your stop based on candle closes (5, 10, 25, 50 pt activation)
  • COMBO PRESETS — Pre-built BE + TP + Trail combinations
3

Using Auto Breakeven

Enter a trade normally. Click the BE button and select an auto-breakeven level (e.g., BE + 5 pts). The add-on will automatically move your stop loss to entry + 5 points once your trade reaches that profit level. The button flashes green to confirm.

4

Using Trailing Stop

Select a trailing stop option (e.g., Trail @ 10+ pts). Once your trade is 10+ points in profit, the add-on starts trailing your stop. It only moves the stop in your favor — never against you. Select STOP TRAILING from the menu to deactivate.

Multi-chart support: The BE button appears on every chart with Chart Trader enabled. Each chart manages its own trailing/breakeven state independently.

Trade Copier

Multi-Account Trade Replication

$149
1

Open the Copier Window

In NinjaTrader, go to New → TradeGreater Trade Copier. The copier window opens with three panels: Leader, Followers, and Order Log.

2

Configure the Leader Account

In the Leader Account panel:

  • Account: Select the account you trade on (this is the source)
  • Instrument Filter: Leave blank to copy all instruments, or type a symbol to filter
  • Replication Method: Choose how quantities are calculated for followers
  • Market Only: Check to only copy filled market orders (skip pending limits/stops)
3

Add Follower Accounts

Click Add Follower and select each account you want to copy trades to. You can add unlimited followers. For each follower, the copier automatically handles cross-contract mapping (e.g., NQ on leader → MNQ on follower).

4

Arm the Copier

Click the Master ARM button to start copying. The button turns green when armed. Every fill on your leader account will now be replicated to all follower accounts in real-time.

Replication methods: Exact Quantity copies the same number of contracts. Ratio multiplies by a factor. Equal Distribution splits evenly. Pre-Allocation lets you set specific quantities per follower.

Test on sim first. Always test the copier with simulation accounts before going live. Verify that fills, stop adjustments, and position flattening all work as expected.

Risk Guardian

Drawdown Protection & P&L Monitoring

$99
1

Open Risk Guardian

Go to New → TG Risk Guardian. The window shows your P&L panel, MAE panel, time filters, and control panel.

2

Select Your Account & Configure Limits

Select the account to monitor from the dropdown. Then configure:

  • Starting Balance: Your account starting balance (e.g., $50,000)
  • MAE Percentage: Maximum adverse excursion % (Apex uses 30%)
  • Max Drawdown Limit: Daily loss limit in dollars (e.g., $2,000)
  • Contract Limits: Max mini and micro contracts allowed simultaneously
3

Set Trading Time Window

Configure your allowed trading hours (e.g., 9:32 AM – 11:00 AM EST). Optionally block entire sessions: Asia (6PM-3AM), London (3AM-9:30AM), or Lunch (12PM-2PM).

4

ARM the Guardian

Click ARM to activate protection. The progress bars show your current drawdown and MAE usage in real-time. If you breach any limit, Risk Guardian will:

  • 1. Immediately flatten all positions
  • 2. Cancel all pending orders
  • 3. Lock you out until you manually click RESET

Lockout is real. When Risk Guardian locks you out, it stays locked until you manually click RESET. This is by design — it prevents revenge trading after a loss.

Order Line Decorator

Live P&L Badges on Order Lines

$49
1

Add to Your Chart

Right-click on your chart → Indicators → search for TGOrderLineDecorator → click AddOK.

2

Enter a Trade

Once you have an open position with TP/SL orders, the decorator automatically paints badges on your order lines:

  • Blue badge — Entry line (shows $0 at entry price)
  • Green badge — Take profit (shows potential profit, e.g., +$500)
  • Red badge — Stop loss (shows risk, e.g., -$250)

Each badge also shows the R:R ratio (e.g., 2.0R means reward is 2x the risk).

3

Adjust Badge Position (Optional)

Open the indicator settings to adjust the Flex Gap Width parameter, which controls horizontal badge positioning. This helps if badges overlap with other chart elements.

Zero performance impact. Badges are rendered with SharpDX (hardware-accelerated) and only update when order prices change — not on every tick. Your charts stay fast.
