ERRORS AFTER MBO INSTALLATIONS?

1) You decide to read instructions AFTER MBO installation. You installed the MBO indicator first, then got errors. andNow you are frustrated. Do not request help from Admin BOF until you implement every instruction on this page. 

Congratulations! You wasted your time, and you want to waste my time for support and troubleshooting.  Stop being smart and implement User Guide section  3.  Pre- Requarements. Do not skip any part of the instructions, even if you are an avid and experienced NT8 user. 

You can experienvce out of the box  installation, and MBO indicators work with absolutely no errors if you 

1) Turn off all and every Antivirus, including Windows Defender, COMPLETELY OFF for easy and fast installation.
Yes, you can use any protection programs you want after MBO indicators are installed and working properly. Please configure your Antivirus and Online protection apps/ programs correctly by whitelisting  these directories for NinjaTrader: 

Whitelist folders: 
1)  C:\Program Files\NinjaTrader 8
2) C:\Users\<<Your Username>>\Documents\NinjaTrader 8\
3) C:\Users\<<<USERNAME>>\AppData\Local\Temp\7114e8ea-2fd5-46e6-bf7d-b91fb1638ae3

The complete article on how to whitelist and exclude MBO files and NT8 directories is here: https://bestorderflow.com/userguide/ninjatrader/antivirus

2) If you have existing NT8 installed,
  a) please rename C:\Users\<<Your Username>>\Documents\NinjaTrader 8  to a folder name  someting like MyPreviousNT8 
   
b) Download the latest version of the NT8 and install it.  Do not install NT8 over a previously installed version. This will help avoid interference with the indicators' DLL files.  
This is because you probably avoided reading the instructions for removing duplicate files here. 

 3) After latest NT8 intallation ( not over previous installation) please make sure that Symbology Display  Style is set to NUMERIC. If it is set to anything other than NT8, the NT* will not run the MBO engine and MBO indicators correctly. Follow the instructions in Pre-Requisites for Symbology Settings  over here  

4) MBO indicators do not connect to your instrument, despite you having no errors of any sort? Most likely connection is configured on the wrong option.  The MBO engine will work only on the connection named BOF MBO Rithmic NT, NOT on connections named Rithmic or Rithmic for NinjaTrader Brokerage. Yes - re-read the connection name again because it is easy to select the wrong one.  

 4) Another reason for an error is what you are entering as the username for starting NinjaTrader. If the username you enter is not exactly the same as the one you provided on your account on bestorderflow.com, you will receive an error. For example, you are entering Uppercase instead of lowercase. You log in with your Google or email account as a username. 

The username you are using to log in to the NT8 Start window must be absolutely identical to the NinjaTrader Username you entered on your bestorderflow.com account. No emails or Gmail logins are allowed, as explained in 1.7. Check NinjaTrader UserName here 

5)Your machine ID entered on your bestorderflow.com account with extra space or one character less. Please check the absolute accuracy of your machine ID; it must be entered exactly as is, with no extra spaces before or after. 

6) Starting NinjaTrated not as Administrator - creates an error. Please always start as Administrator

7) Cleaning NT8 once a week or more often may help. 
8) Don't forget that restarting the computer may help as well.  

 If you implemented everything on this page, please contact Admin BOF on Discord via Personal direct message, identify yourself using the email used for registration on bestorderflow.com, and provide screenshots of your errors.

abraahamI have passed one more funding account with Apex Trading today and made $3,000, which is the threshold for passing the account. I traded NQ, and the Bestorderflow indicators are excellent for passing props.

The MBO Market By Order indicator displays liquidity in real-time. Now I can see if a Support or Resistance Level can hold or become weak.

I have tested and used indicators from many other vendors. The BestOrderFlow indicators are the best set of indicators for the NinjaTrader platform. It is lightweight and presents information in a visually appealing manner. That makes a lot of difference in my trading. I love to trade with MBO Market by Order indicator. Feel free to connect with me, and I can provide you with hundreds of screenshots of my results, if you'd like.

Game Changer for my Results
Fortunate. Verified user.

As an active trader, I can't say enough good things about the BestOrderFlow Delta Level 2 indicator.  This set of indicators gave me an edge in my trading.  It's like having a crystal ball for market movements! The way it tracks the speed of buyers and sellers is incredible. I love how it shows who is dominating the market in real-time, which helps me make informed decisions quickly.

Whether it's spotting a reversal or riding the momentum, this indicator has been a game-changer for my scalping strategy. The visual cues are straightforward to understand, and the ability to adjust settings based on different trading sessions is a significant advantage.  If you're serious about trading and want that extra edge, this indicator is a must-have. Big shoutout to BOF Admin support and the team for making charts so easy to use and keeping NinjaTrader with BOF indicators super fast and responsive!  Your work has truly made a difference in my trading experience. Thanks a ton!
DM me on Discord for any questions. and see my results.

Feel the  Difference 

I am a trader with over 6 years of experience trading volume indicators on NinjaTrader.  Other third-party vendors that sell indicators for NinjaTrader are known for their poor quality and the difficulty of using their indicators, which can cause charts to become slow and sluggish.   

I no longer use any other third-party indicators, except  BestOrderFlow (BOF). BOF indicators are made professionally, and you can instantly feel the difference.

 Charts with BOF indicators run much faster and never freeze.

BOF has several simplifications over its competitor's footprint, which I appreciate. It is not only lightweight, but it just works flawlessly. 

BOF tutorials and educational videos are very informative and helpful. 

Regarding charts with BOF indicators, I appreciate how the information is organized and visually presented on the indicators.

Unparalleled Quality and Speed 

I have been testing BOF indicators for two months and getting shocking results. I am thrilled and excited as never before to trade. I am honest and have no financial incentives to influence my expression.

This Footprint is incredible. This Footprint indicator uniquely combines several other indicators, offering unparalleled quality and speed.

It's a testament to the programmer's expertise behind it, and I hold it in high regard. Yes, I am deadly serious in my feedback on using these indicators.

My primary motivation for writing about BOF indicators is my sincere desire to help traders grow their accounts faster.  I have tested and used many indicators from other well-known brands and found that BOF indicators perform more efficiently, providing a significant advantage in trading.

My favorite indicators

I fell in love with BOF indicators from the very first day of use, and I highly recommend them to any trader. 

I traded the S&P 500 and Nasdaq for 4 years and used BestOrderFlow indicators for 12 months.

Through the use of BOF indicators, I achieved a significant improvement in my trading results. 

The visual presentation of the complex data provided by bestorderflow indicators helped me to make my entries and exits much faster and safer than ever before. 

Charts with BOF indicators run much faster and are very informative.  In my day trading, I use BOF Footprint, Market Speed, Delta Profile, Pulling and Staking on Dom, Heatmap on the past Dom. 

I use BOF video tutorials and PDF manuals to set up each indicator the way I need for my trading setups. 

Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

The main difference

We build professional-grade indicators for speed and performance:

  • BOF - BestOrderFlow is the first to release the MBO Market By Order DOM for trading on NinjaTrader charts. 
  • BOF - BestOrderFlow is the first to release Depth of Market Dom and Heatmap NT, which does not freeze during periods of high volatility and ATR

    The Ledger heatmap is the only professional-grade heatmap that keeps working during critical times during a high-volatility NY open and does not freeze, unlike the others.

  • We tested all third-party indicators, including BOOKMAP and other Heatmap(s), and based on solid data tests, discovered their insufficiency in speed and accuracy in performance during extreme volatility. 
  • We tested other third-party Icebergs and found that their nature of Icebergs is based on calculations of level 2 data instead of level 3 data.
  • True icebergs can be built only on Level 3 data, such as Market by Order (MBO)
  • Compare Heatmap from Bookmap with new LEDGER Heatmap

Most traders don't know:

If your automation is based on slow and not tested on speed indicators, it is a waste. 

Build automation based on BestOrderFlow super-fast indicators to outperform: 

  • Bots,
  • Algos,
  • High Frequency Trading, NinjaTrader Strategy
  • Automation built with BOF indicators outperforms automation built with any other "Lego" type of software for NinjaTrader. ( pending access to data for automation) 

The highest level of performance on the competition test

We are no longer naming our Package 3 as Bookmap NT. Our new name for Package 3 is LEDGER

LEDGER NT is a record of interactions between all market participants, including both aggressive orders and passive orders. The term LEDGER is a better description of interactions between level 1 data, level 2 data, and level 3 data orders.
