“Nexus Chart Trader is by far the best of the best.”Chuck, TrustpilotPlan the risk, execute from the chart, and enforce your account rules without piecing together separate tools.
Plan the Trade
Build the entry, stop, target, and quantity on the chart before the order is placed.
Execute with Control
Keep entries, brackets, account selection, and adjustments inside one execution panel.
Protect the Account
Apply repeatable guardrails across funded accounts before the session gets away from you.
Set the rules before the session. Keep the limits, account state, and active protections visible inside NinjaTrader 8 while you trade.
Use separate thresholds for Pro and Eval accounts, with session locking when the configured limit is reached.
Flatten positions and lock the account for the session when daily PnL reaches your configured target.
Track peak net liquidation value and act when drawdown from that peak exceeds your limit.
Activate a hard floor or trailing percentage after a profit milestone is reached.
Set a maximum position size and automatically trim excess contracts if the position moves beyond it.
Choose a 1 to 60 minute pre-close window to flatten positions before the session ends.
