NinjaTrader Group has announced the expansion of its futures trading offering into Europe through Payward Europe Digital Solutions (CY) Limited (PEDSL-CY), a MiFID-regulated investment firm. The rollout will begin in the Netherlands and Germany, marking NinjaTrader’s first entry into the European retail futures market.

Designed specifically for futures traders, NinjaTrader offers a platform centered on exchange-listed futures. The company has spent more than 20 years focused exclusively on futures trading, developing technology, pricing structures, and educational tools aimed at retail market participants. With this expansion, European existing and future clients of PEDSL-CY will gain access to futures contracts listed on regulated U.S. and European exchanges.

The move comes as European retail traders increasingly show interest in exchange-traded products, driven by a preference for transparent pricing, regulated market access, and standardized instruments. Through NinjaTrader’s European offering, EU clients will be able to trade futures within a regulated framework while accessing international markets.

NinjaTrader Group Expands Futures Trading Services Into Europe

NinjaTrader plans to extend its European presence beyond the initial launch countries. Additional European Union markets, including France and Italy, are expected to be added later this year. This expansion places NinjaTrader alongside other global brokerage firms that already provide European clients with access to exchange-traded futures in line with local regulatory requirements.

The European launch is part of NinjaTrader Group’s broader integration into the PINC Group, which also includes cryptocurrency platform Kraken. Kraken serves more than 15 million clients globally and has been active in building infrastructure across digital asset and traditional financial markets.

European clients will have access to NinjaTrader’s full futures trading environment. This includes advanced charting tools, order flow analysis, market data, execution functionality, and a futures trading simulator. The simulator allows traders to test strategies and gain experience before committing capital in live markets.

Commenting on the expansion, NinjaTrader Group CEO Martin Franchi said the company is responding to changing trader preferences across Europe, where interest in futures-based exchange-traded products continues to grow. Kraken co-CEO Arjun Sethi added that broader retail access to futures is becoming more common worldwide, and NinjaTrader’s European entry aligns with efforts to connect traders to regulated global markets.
