NinjaTrader vs. TradingView: Sonic System Test ⚡
February 10th, Monday—let’s dive into the Sonic Trading System. Today, I’ll cover both the NinjaTrader and TradingView versions, ensuring that no matter your platform, you can follow along with the same signals. Before we begin, a reminder: trading carries risk. Never trade with money you can’t afford to lose.
Market Overview: S&P 500 (E-mini & Micro)
At 11:25-11:30 AM, we identified several short signals on the chart. I use both the Trade Scalper and Sonic Trading System because I always look for confirmation between signals, whether long or short. While both systems are price-action-based, they are distinct in their methodologies.
For a limited time, the Trade Scalper is included free with the Sonic Trading System!
Executing Trades with NinjaTrader
We received a short signal at 6084 using the Sonic Trading System in NinjaTrader.
- I employed the ATM strategy in NinjaTrader to automate targets and stops.
- This semi-automated strategy works well for Apex and other funded accounts.
- I recommend seeking a better entry price for a more favorable risk-reward ratio.
Tip: A little patience could have secured a slightly better entry price, improving the risk-reward ratio.
The market began moving in my favor. Ideally, I prefer an immediate move after entry to minimize uncertainty and avoid prolonged sideways action.
We also have an audible alert and text notification with the Sonic System to highlight trade signals. You can even customize the sound notification to your liking.
Using the Sonic Trading System on TradingView
Switching to TradingView, I use live data (not simulated or delayed).
- The same short signal at 6084 appeared.
- The filters ensure alignment with market trends.
- I leverage multiple indicators to confirm whether the market is too strong, slow, or volatile.
Key Indicator: The ATR (Average True Range) helps determine if market conditions are favorable for trading.
Both my NinjaTrader and TradingView charts use a 1-minute timeframe for consistency.
Live Trade Execution & Strategy
A fresh short signal at 6082.50 appeared on both platforms.
- I placed both charts side by side to compare.
- The market retraced—a great illustration of why I aim for better pricing.
- Better entries lead to:
- Larger targets
- Lower risk
- Improved risk-reward ratios
Shortly after, the trade hit its target at 6081, securing a $100 profit on one contract (two points)!
Scaling Up: Trading multiple contracts could yield $200, $400, or even $800 per trade, but always start small and scale up with experience.
