How to trade Rithmic accounts from TradingView charts

Last reviewed 2026-11-01

Short answer: Rithmic is not one of the broker connections built into TradingView, so you cannot log a Rithmic account into TradingView and trade it there. Most traders chart in TradingView and place orders in a separate Rithmic platform. Muunship removes the second window: it has TradingView charts built in and sends your orders straight to your Rithmic account.

Why TradingView and Rithmic don't connect directly

Rithmic is trading infrastructure, not a platform you log into. It provides the market data and order routing behind many futures brokers and prop firms, and you reach it through a front-end such as R|Trader Pro, NinjaTrader, Sierra Chart or Quantower.

TradingView, meanwhile, trades through the brokers it has integrated. Rithmic is not on that list, so a Rithmic-based account (offered by prop firms such as Apex Trader Funding, Bulenox and Earn2Trade) cannot be connected to TradingView's trading panel. Check TradingView's current broker list if you want to confirm for yourself.

The usual workaround: two windows

Without a direct connection, most Rithmic traders end up doing this on every trade:

  1. Find the level on the TradingView chart.
  2. Switch to the Rithmic platform (R|Trader Pro, NinjaTrader or similar).
  3. Enter the price and quantity again.
  4. Add the stop-loss and take-profit by hand.
  5. Switch back to the chart to manage the trade.

Trade Rithmic from TradingView charts with Muunship

Muunship puts TradingView charts and Rithmic execution in one browser window:

  1. Connect your Rithmic account in Muunship. It takes about two minutes and nothing is installed.
  2. Set your default stop and target distances once.
  3. Open the TradingView chart for your symbol, such as NQ or ES.
  4. Click a price to enter. The order goes to your Rithmic account with the stop and target attached.
  5. Drag the stop or target lines on the chart to adjust them.

Trading several Rithmic or mixed accounts

If you hold more than one prop account, Muunship's built-in trade copier mirrors each chart trade to your other accounts in under 50ms, bracket legs included. That works across Rithmic, Tradovate and ProjectX accounts together, so an Apex account on Rithmic and a Topstep account on TopstepX can follow the same trade.

Frequently asked questions

Can I connect my Rithmic account to TradingView?

Not directly. Rithmic is not one of TradingView's built-in broker connections. You either trade in a separate Rithmic platform or use a tool like Muunship that combines TradingView charts with Rithmic execution.

Can I use TradingView with Apex Trader Funding?

Apex accounts connect through Rithmic or Tradovate. On a Rithmic connection the same limit applies: TradingView cannot trade it directly. See our guide to TradingView with Apex for both connections.

Do I still need R|Trader Pro or NinjaTrader?

Not for placing and managing trades in Muunship. Your firm may still require its own steps, such as signing agreements, so follow their onboarding first.

Is Muunship affiliated with Rithmic or TradingView?

No. Muunship is independent and is not affiliated with or endorsed by Rithmic or TradingView.
