Frequently Asked Questions
Is this a standalone indicator?
No. The Nexus Trading Journal is an add-on and requires the Nexus Chart Trader to be installed and active on the chart to function. It is specifically designed to work with it.
How do I install it?
Installation is simple. Just like any other NinjaTrader indicator, you import it through the Tools > Import > NinjaScript Add-On... menu and then add it to your chart.
Does it work on multiple instruments or accounts?
Yes. You add one instance of the indicator to each chart you want to track. The journal will log trades for that specific instrument and automatically sort data by the account used for execution.
Where is my data stored?
Your data is 100% private and secure, stored in a CSV file located in your `Documents/NinjaTrader 8/` user folder. We never see or have access to your trading data.
