What you’ll need
Before you start
NinjaTrader credentials
Either log in with your NinjaTrader login and password or via Google.
OAuth approval
Approve TraderWaves scopes — passwords stay on NinjaTrader-hosted pages.
How the connection works
Overview
TraderWaves launches the NinjaTrader OAuth authorization flow. Once approved, secure access tokens allow eligible trade activity to sync into your TraderWaves journal and analytics without storing your NinjaTrader password.
Step-by-step setup
Walkthrough
- Select NinjaTrader inside TraderWaves.
- Click Connect with NinjaTrader to open the official authorization screen.
- Log in through NinjaTrader using the account you want to connect.
- Approve the requested access.
- Return to TraderWaves after the redirect succeeds.
- Wait for the initial sync to complete.


What happens after connecting
After sync
Once connected, your NinjaTrader trades can automatically sync into TraderWaves so you can review performance, analyse trade history, add journal notes, and compare activity alongside your other accounts.
Security and permissions
Trust & access
TraderWaves uses the official OAuth authorization flow for this connection. Your login password is not entered directly into TraderWaves, and access is managed through secure authorization tokens.
Prefer manual trade tracking?
TraderWaves also supports manual trade journaling when you want full control over how trades are logged.
