Creating Your Own Custom Workspaces In NinjaTrader

You can customize your NinjaTrader Workspaces, chart templates and indicators as you wish, however, we recommend always starting with a default AlgoBox™ Workspaces, templates and indicator settings. Save your Workspaces and templates under a different file name so that you always maintain default files for future use without having to re-install AlgoBox™. Click here to learn more about Workspaces.

To get started with Workspace layouts, please click here to continue. Note: Some customized workspaces, templates and settings may not be recommended or supported. We do not support the use of 3rd party applications/indicators.
