My Funded Futures Connection Guide to NinjaTrader 8

Quick answer

Only if you hold firm-issued Rithmic credentials that still authenticate. As of August 2026, My Funded Futures documents NinjaTrader, Tradovate, TradingView, Quantower, Volumetrica, DeepChart/DeepDom, and ATAS — with no Rithmic route. If the firm previously issued you a Rithmic username and password, test them in R|Trader Pro; while they authenticate, PropFirmConnector can connect them to NinjaTrader 8 with Rithmic Paper Trading (Chicago) as System.
