NinjaTrader is Excellent by Jim BeanI have been using NinjaTrader for discretionary trading of futures using the Zen-Fire feed and its head and shoulders above the Transact AT platform I was using. Charting is excellent and there is a lot of 3rd party components available.

Lousy Software by Robert DonallyI really had a lot of trouble with the software. Very poor UI, very expensive data services, difficult to get started, very expensive for what you get.

Horrid UI, good features by AdrianNinjaTrader looks like it was written by a group of PhDs, the automating trading features are good and reliable but the user interface is one of the worst I've ever come across. You'll need their manual at all times and even simple tasks like adding a new stock requires navigating a painful and tedious maze of menus and buttons.
The only reason to choose NinjaTrader over OpenQuant is if you absolutely need NT's features, but otherwise the horrible interface should drive everyone away.
Avoid it unless absolutely necessary.

NinjaTrader is excellent by Jim KlineI have been using TradeStation for the past several years for automated strategy development and recently switched to NinjaTrader. It is C# based and provides and event driven model, something that TS has been lacking. In addition to TS brokerage, I have several accounts at other brokerage all which NinjaTrader supports. I highly recommend this product. It is free until you start trading live.
