Connect BookMap to Rithmic

A step-by-step guide to connecting BookMap to the Rithmic platform for Day traders.

Updated over a week ago

Before You Begin: Make sure you’ve updated to the latest version of BookMap (7.4 or higher) for seamless connection to the Day Traders server. Without the update, you won't be able to connect properly.

Steps to Connect BookMap to Rithmic:

  1. Log in to RTrader Pro:

    • Sign in and make sure to complete both mandatory agreements when prompted. These are required to use the platform.

    • Choose the NON-PROFESSIONAL option during setup to avoid unnecessary fees.

  2. Set the System to "DayTraders.com":

    • In your System settings, select DayTraders.com. Do not select "Rithmic Paper Trading"—this will prevent proper connection.

  3. Access Level 2 Data and Extra Logins:

    • Both features are available in your Trader Dashboard. These can be added as needed for an enhanced trading experience.

For additional help, check out the BookMap tutorial video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yqtfOXW3Zmg to walk you through the process visually.

Follow these steps, and you'll be ready to start trading on BookMap with Rithmic!
