I followed the setup instructions. It is an evaluation account so the trades are not going to the exchange. When I sign into NinjaTrader I just hit the connection that says "My Rithmic for NinjaTrader Brokerage". I do not have to have RtraderPro running when I connect through NinjaTrader. When signing up for Rithmic, the lower section does not get filled out (Market Data and Allow plugins section) per Apex. I filled it out as the MT instructions showed and even tried the "PAPER" solution. Would be great to get this to work as people claim that thousands of traders are using this prop firm.
