BlueWaveTrading BWT Precision AutoTrader for NinjaTrader 7
Vendor/Product	Platform	Status	Automation
Blue Wave Trading LLC, BWT Precision AutoTrader 7 Year 2013 to 2022	NinjaTrader 7	Discontinued, No support, Obselete Tech.	MTDS7 Whitelabel derivative, Pseudo Fully Automated Features, – basic Hybrid Semi/Fully Automation with Attendance, NT7 Un-Managed Strategy.Strategy halts on disconnection, loses context of orders & positions No auto stop, auto start. manual start, stop, no fault tolerance, manual orders and positions cancel flatten to restart.
Pros Looks awesome and pulls people in with the amazing color scheme and look and feel. The technology was a very advance strategy engine from MTDS which still had the same old issues of Strategies. But without the overfill issues and much improved reliability over the original NT strategies in 2006 onwards TechnologyWhite label of MTDS components reshaped for BWT Algo – royalty-based License agreement. The while label provides the following under license BWTPrecisionTrend Indicator – (Subset of the AFT USAR) BWTTradeManager – MTDS7 reskin BWTProfitLoss BWTOrdersPositionsVisuals BWTStrategyBase – MTDS7 Dervied engine NinjaTrader 7 unmanaged strategy no overfills and strategy halts, hybrid trading to allow user interactive control in realtime. The system was at best pseudo automated, could never swing trade long than the connect lasted so that would be a maximum of Sunday to Friday if there was a solid internet connection. After a pause or stop. /Start it requires a manual cancel of the stops and close of the positions. Can be left unattended but not advisable Stats None ever recorded showing the successful long-term fully auto trading, only some semi auto manual stats and video marketing, The system shot to fame in YouTube with a trader Jim using the hybrid controls of it which were a mere subset of the MTDS and AFT systems power but no performance for fully automated achieved. Key Points designed for hybrid attended mode for best safety and results. Cons Obselete Windows NT7 technology limited life span Disconnections cause the strategy to stop, lose track of positions and orders On a Restart or disconnect orders and positions require manual start and fixing of orders/positions by hand History This was a merger of the very old BWT system consisting of 1 trend indicator for the ATR Trend – from the stocks and commodities vervoot ATR trend algo which didn’t work properly, along with a very badly written default mode of NT7 strategy which would halt on overfills and errors and leave a tangle of cancelled orders and unguarded positions. BWT took a like to the MicroTrends MTDS systems it was agreed to provide a white label and merge together with the existing legacy BWT code to cut out the old parts and wire in the new and it was achieved making a stunning looking system – that performed great in terms of usability but did not deliver fully automated reliable stats – however when used with hybrid controls to control when to buy and sell or set the bias as it traded – it was a very successful system for traders man and machine mode, but was only a small subset of the MTDS and AFT7 technology so very limited – but easy to use and very easy to configure due to BWT’s original configuration panel. This system looked amazing in the videos and marketing and on the chart and sold 100s of copies up to 2019, in 2020 onwards 95% of traders switched to NinjaTrader 8 making this obsolete. The vendors look, and style applied to it made it look very compelling, combined with excellent videos series this really took off. But in truth a minority of traders renew the annual contract and traders mostly use it as a hybrid system. All done and said in its day it was alone and at the top of the rankings prior to AFT7 2014 to 2018. Conclusion A real classic and hit in its day, the price is a lot more for this system, yet it only contains a small subset of the AFT7 and AFT8 which can be used free forever and you will have to spend 5K to know if it will suit you for the limited life span it has left.
