NinjaTrader 8 · Indicators & Automated Strategies
Trade the open with a tested plan. Not a gut feeling.
AA Trading builds order-flow indicators and fully automated strategies for NinjaTrader 8 — engineered by a quant researcher for ES, NQ, and CL futures traders who are done missing setups and overtrading.
The problem
You already know the setup. That was never the problem.
The 9:30 open comes fast. You hesitate — the range breaks without you.
So you size up to catch the next one. You slide your stop "just this once." You override the plan you spent three months building, then watch it work perfectly without you. The prop evaluation resets. Again. None of that is a knowledge gap — it's an execution gap, and willpower has never closed it.
The shift
What changes when the tools hold the line for you
Every AA Trading product runs inside NinjaTrader 8 and does one job: turn a discretionary decision into a rule the platform executes the same way every session.
01Never miss the open
The Opening Range Breakout strategy arms before the bell and executes your plan on ES, NQ, or CL the moment price confirms the break — no hesitation tax, no fat-finger entry.
02See what the tape is doing
The EVR and SMC indicators surface delta, absorption, and market-structure shifts that a standard NinjaTrader 8 candlestick chart simply doesn't show you.
03Trade the same plan daily
Parameters are fixed, documented, and version-controlled. Discipline stops being a mood and starts being a setting.
04Automate the edge you have
Hand a discretionary setup to native NinjaScript and let it manage entries, targets, and stops while you're at your day job.

"I stopped talking myself out of the first break. It just takes the trade my plan says to take. The prop eval finally stuck."
Beta user · ES day trader, 2 yrs"The delta read on EVR is the first order-flow tool that didn't lag on fast NQ tick volume. Rendering is instant."
Beta user · NQ order-flow trader"Set the ORB bundle once, automated it, and now I check my phone at lunch instead of revenge-trading at 10am."

The build
Engineered by a quant. Not a guru.
AA Trading was founded by a physicist with 20+ years building machine-learning systems in fintech. Every indicator is written in native NinjaScript with SharpDX / Direct2D rendering, so it holds up under live tick volume on ES and NQ.
No signal groups. No calls to follow. No "mentorship." Just tools that do exactly what the documentation says, running on your own NinjaTrader 8 platform.

FAQ
NinjaTrader 8 questions, answered
Does this work with the free version of NinjaTrader 8?+
Yes. Every AA Trading indicator and strategy runs on NinjaTrader 8, including the free platform license. You do not need a funded brokerage account to use the indicators or run the strategies in simulation.
Can I use AA Trading tools on a prop-firm account?+
Yes. The strategies are built for repeatable, rule-based execution that suits Apex, Topstep, and Take Profit Trader evaluations. Always confirm your firm's specific policy on automated strategies before enabling automation.
What's the difference between an indicator and a strategy?+
An indicator draws information on your chart — delta, the opening range, structure shifts. A strategy places and manages trades for you, either on manual confirmation or fully automated through NinjaScript.
Which futures markets are supported?+
Built and tested for ES, NQ, and CL. Many traders also run them on the micros — MES, MNQ, and MCL — with the same settings.
Is there a free trial?+
Yes — a 7-day free trial on the paid strategies and bundles, no credit card required. The three core indicators (EVR, SMC, Opening Range) are free permanently.
Do you send trading signals?+
No. AA Trading sells software you install and run on your own NinjaTrader 8 platform. Nothing is transmitted to you to copy, and there is no chat room of calls to follow.
