Which prop firms use Rithmic?

NinjaTrader 8 supports Rithmic, but native access depends on account eligibility. Some firms — 4PropTrader, Apex Trader Funding, Bulenox, Elite Trader Funding and others — document a native route for eligible accounts. NinjaTrader runs one native Rithmic connection at a time. Three situations therefore come up constantly for traders on the firms listed above:

• No native route at all. DayTraders.com, Humble Futures Funding, PropShopTrader currently issue Rithmic accounts while documenting NinjaTrader as unsupported. Their logins work in NinjaTrader only through an add-on connection path.
• Native on a different feed only. Earn2Trade, Lucid Trading, Phidias Propfirm, The Trading Pit, Tradeify, YRM Prop offer NinjaTrader natively through another data feed, so the Rithmic version of their accounts still needs the add-on route.
• Native for eligible accounts, but single-login. Firms with a documented native option — like 4PropTrader, Apex Trader Funding, Bulenox — connect eligible logins one at a time. Several accounts can share one login; PropFirmConnector is relevant when separate Rithmic logins must stay connected together. Check the firm's eligibility note and account guide before choosing a route.

PropFirmConnector covers all three cases: it adds an independent connection path inside NinjaTrader 8 for any firm-issued Rithmic login and runs multiple Rithmic connections simultaneously in one instance — which is also what makes local trade copying across prop accounts possible. See the trade copier guide for that workflow.

The 2026 platform reshuffle — firms that changed feeds

Prop-firm data feeds moved a lot in 2026, which is why older firm lists are wrong. Topstep consolidated new accounts onto its own TopstepX platform after ProjectX became Topstep-exclusive in February 2026, so Topstep no longer appears in Rithmic’s directory for new accounts. Earn2Trade ended its bundled NinjaTrader-plus-Rithmic access on June 30, 2026 — its Rithmic accounts continue on other front ends, and NinjaTrader access there now runs through a different feed. Tradeify went the other direction, launching its Rithmic-based Tradesea stack in March 2026. Alpha Futures rebuilt its lineup around AlphaTrader, WealthCharts, Deepchart, and Quantower in July 2026 — its current platform documentation lists no Rithmic path, so its connection guide applies to previously issued Rithmic credentials. Alpha Funded is a separate firm whose futures materials document Rithmic accounts. Each connection guide records its own sources and last-verified date.
