Welcome to Sovren.

Install NinjaTrader 8

Download NinjaTrader 8 from ninjatrader.com and log in. The free license works. Connect your data feed or prop firm account under Connections.

Import Sovren

1. In the NinjaTrader Control Center, open Tools → Import → NinjaScript Add-On.
2. Select the Sovren .zip you just downloaded. Don't unzip it first.
3. Click Yes when NinjaTrader asks to import, then restart NinjaTrader.

Open an NQ chart

1. New → Chart, instrument NQ (or MNQ) front month.
2. Bar type Minute, value 1. Set Days to load to 30.
3. Keep the default trading hours template (CME US Index Futures ETH).

Turn on the strategy

1. Right-click the chart, choose Strategies, and add Sovren.
2. Pick your account and set the number of contracts (2 NQ, or start with MNQ).
3. Tick Enabled and click OK. The strategy name turns green when it's live.
4. Run one copy of Sovren per account, and don't trade NQ or MNQ by hand on that account while it's on. If the account's position ever stops matching Sovren's, Sovren closes that contract on the account and stops until the next session.

Trade journal. While Sovren is enabled, every NQ or MNQ trade that closes on that account, including any you place by hand, is sent to your private trade journal on sovrentrading.com: instrument, direction, contracts, entry and exit times and prices, P&L, commission and the account name. It is sent with your activation key, NinjaTrader username and machine ID so it lands in your account. Strategy Analyzer, Playback and historical trades are never sent. What Sovren sends.

Keep it running for the open

Sovren trades during the Nasdaq opening session. Your computer or VPS needs to be on with NinjaTrader connected through the New York morning; the setup guide in your download lists the exact hours. It handles news days and its daily trade and loss limits on its own.
