First confirm which organization issued your trading account and whether it supplied an active Rithmic login. Gooey Trade supports several platforms, and their credentials are not interchangeable. For a Rithmic account, use the exact System and connection route confirmed by your account issuer; PropFirmConnector can connect active Rithmic logins to NinjaTrader 8 where the add-on route applies.
This guide covers how to connect Gooey Trade Rithmic accounts to NinjaTrader. PropFirmConnector is an independent third-party add-on and is not affiliated with or endorsed by Gooey Trade, NinjaTrader, or Rithmic.

Ask the organization that issued your trading account to confirm its connection feed, Rithmic username and password, exact System and gateway, and supported NinjaTrader route. If it supplied Rithmic credentials, test them in R|Trader Pro, accept any pending agreements and confirm the expected account appears. Continue with the add-on steps only for that verified Rithmic route.
From your PropFirmConnector account, download PropFirmConnector.zip and close NinjaTrader completely. Extract the ZIP, then copy NinjaTrader.Custom-pfc.dll to My Documents\NinjaTrader 8\bin\Custom. Start NinjaTrader again and, when your browser opens, click Activate this device.
My Documents\NinjaTrader 8\bin\Custom Start NinjaTrader 8 and sign in with your NinjaTrader account credentials when prompted. These are separate from the Rithmic credentials issued for your trading account.
In the NinjaTrader Control Center, select Connections, then configure. Select Rithmic for NinjaTrader Brokerage, enter the active Rithmic credentials supplied for your trading account, and give the connection a recognizable name. Leave Connect on start up and Plug-in mode off. Use the exact System confirmed by your account issuer; if that System is not available or remains unclear, resolve it with the issuer before connecting. The screenshot illustrates the interface, not a verified System for your Gooey Trade account.
Confirm with your account issuerThe Username and Password are case-sensitive.
Open Connections and select the connection name you created. Confirm a green status indicator and that the expected account appears. The example connection name in the screenshot is only a label; it does not verify a particular Gooey Trade account or account type.
Gooey Trade describes its service as platform administration for prop firms. Rithmic lists it under both funding evaluators and introducing brokers. Check who issued your account and its actual connection feed; these directory roles do not establish one account offering or setup for everyone.
Not merely because it is a Gooey-branded login. PropFirmConnector connects Rithmic credentials. Ask the account issuer whether your account has an active Rithmic username and password and which NinjaTrader route is supported.
Use the exact System confirmed by your account issuer. The cited public pages do not establish one System for every Gooey Trade account. Do not guess between Rithmic Paper Trading and Rithmic 01 from a provider name or directory category.
No blanket requirement is established. Confirm the account feed and whether the issuer offers a native NinjaTrader route. The add-on is relevant to an active Rithmic login where its connection route is needed, including connecting separate Rithmic logins in one NinjaTrader instance.
