Question About Trading Platforms for This System

Hi everyone, I have a question about platforms. For those of you who have achieved success with at least one funded prop account, do you prefer trading this system on NinjaTrader, TradingView, or another platform?

I've been using NinjaTrader for years, but I’ve noticed that TradingView’s order placement tools seem to make these types of trades much easier to place. Specifically, I’m referring to setting consistent stop-loss and profit target ratios (e.g., 1:1, 1:1.5, 1:2, etc.) without having to eyeball it or use a calculator.

As I prepare to start my first evaluation account, I’m struggling to choose my go-to platform. Over the past two months, I’ve been practicing on both platforms and seeing success with each, but I spend significantly more time setting up entries on NinjaTrader using ATM strategies than I do on TradingView using the position tools to create the total order.

I’d love to hear your thoughts and experiences with these platforms. Which do you prefer for this type of system, and why?
