ALERT: During the installation, some users may get a popup window saying "Windows protected your PC". This is a Microsoft warning that the software company (us) has not paid a large yearly fee for the right to use a Non-Microsoft installer program on Windows machines. We have chosen not to pay the fee and to use the less expensive installer program so that we can make our product as affordable as possible for our users. Below is how to get around it if you trust that we're not introducing any viruses or malware to your computer. If you choose the "Don't Run" option, you will not be able to benefit from the Essential AddOn Suite applications.

Webroot Users

WEBROOT USERS!

This information could also be valuable for other virus/malware false errors and blocked files

Webroot SecureAnywhere users will most likely have problems with false errors suggesting that our installation program is trying to install viruses. Several files will likely be blocked and therefore not completely install the Essential AddOn Suite. We have alerted Webroot to this problem but they are unresponsive to our request to have this issue resolved. However, there is a work around.

Right after installation, Webroot will show a popup window (typically in the lower right corner of your monitor) that says it blocked some files identified as either a virus or malware. Please follow these steps to unblock the files:
  1. In your system tray, double click on the Webroot icon.
  2. Next to PC Security, click the gear icon.
  3. webroot1
  4. Click on the Block/All Files tab.
  5. Click on the "Allow" radio button for any files blocked in the C:\Users\<username>\Documents\NinjaTrader 8\... folders.
  6. webroot2
  7. Run the Essential AddOn Suite Installer (InstallAddonSuite.msi) again.
  8. Select "Repair" and run the installer again. 
  9. repair
  10. At this point, it is possible that WEBROOT has now blocked more files. Repeat steps 1-8 for the newly blocked files. 
  11. Start NT and select "Yes To All" to authorize the new AddOns.

    Risk Disclosure:
    Futures and forex trading contains substantial risk and is not for every investor. An investor could potentially lose all or more than the initial investment. Risk capital is money that can be lost without jeopardizing ones’ financial security or life style. Only risk capital should be used for trading and only those with sufficient risk capital should consider trading. Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results.

    Hypothetical Performance Disclosure: 
    Hypothetical performance results have many inherent limitations, some of which are described below. no representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown; in fact, there are frequently sharp differences between hypothetical performance results and the actual results subsequently achieved by any particular trading program. One of the limitations of hypothetical performance results is that they are generally prepared with the benefit of hindsight. In addition, hypothetical trading does not involve financial risk, and no hypothetical trading record can completely account for the impact of financial risk of actual trading. for example, the ability to withstand losses or to adhere to a particular trading program in spite of trading losses are material points which can also adversely affect actual trading results. There are numerous other factors related to the markets in general or to the implementation of any specific trading program which cannot be fully accounted for in the preparation of hypothetical performance results and all which can adversely affect trading results
