To be able to successfully log on to your platform, you need to do a few steps before starting.

To successfully activate your Rithmic trading account, you need the R|Trader Pro software. You can download the software here: R|Trader

Once you have downloaded R|Trader Pro, you can log in with your account details. You will find your UserID and password in the email with the trading account details.

Please select the Rithmic Paper Trading Server as a system.

The gateway depends on where you are. If you are in the USA, choose Chicago Area. If you are in Europe, you can choose Gateway Europe or Frankfurt. If you’re in Asia, you can choose Tokyo or Singapore.

After the login a window should appear in which you have to confirm two documents.

Click on the documents and confirm the first one with I Agree.

For the second document, you have to select your status:

Should you be a Professional Trader, we will charge you the Professional Data Feed. The cost for the CME is $105, CBOT $105, NYMEX $105, COMEX $105 per month ($405 for all exchanges). Otherwise, select the Non-Professional Status.

After you have confirmed both, you can log in to any trading platform and start trading! Please note that login problems may occur if you log in outside of stock exchange hours, on weekends, holidays or for maintenance work.
