Dashboard – Connection Credentials
In this section you’ll find the login credentials required to connect your trading platform (Bookmap, ATAS, Quantower, NinjaTrader, etc.) to the program’s trading environment via Rithmic.
🔒 What are Connection Credentials?
Each trading account is issued a unique Rithmic Username and Password. These allow you to:
- Connect to live market data (Level 1 by default; Level 2 if subscribed)
- Place and manage trades on your Evaluation or Funded account
- Authenticate your platform to the correct Rithmic environment
📌 Credentials are auto-generated at activation, are account-specific, and must not be shared.
Where to Find Your Credentials
Go to Dashboard → Connection Credentials. You’ll see a table similar to this:
| Account | Platform | Username | Password | Actions |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| EDGE50K-001 (Evaluation) | Rithmic | hidden••• | auto-generated••• | |
| EDGEPA-1023 (Funded) | Rithmic | hidden••• | auto-generated••• |
Usernames are masked in the UI; use the copy buttons to paste into your platform.
How to Use Them
- Open your preferred platform (Bookmap, ATAS, Quantower, NinjaTrader, etc.).
- Select Rithmic as the connection/data feed.
- Paste the Username and Password from the dashboard.
- Select the correct server:
- Rithmic Paper Trading for evaluation/sim environments
- Rithmic Pro for funded/pro environments (as instructed)
- Connect and verify that quotes update in real time and orders route correctly.

🔐 Notes & Recommendations
- Each account has its own credentials; multiple accounts = multiple logins.
- Credentials work only with Rithmic-compatible platforms.
- If login fails, check:
- Account status is Active
- Market Data subscription is enabled/paid
- Correct Rithmic server selected (Paper vs Pro)
- For Level 2 (Depth of Market), ensure the DOM addon is active in your dashboard.
