Capture and share complete NinjaTrader 8 chart windows with one click.
Chart Share adds a camera-style capture icon to NinjaTrader 8 chart windows. Left-click the icon once to save a complete chart-window image, from the top-left to the bottom-right of the window, including the toolbar, tab area, instrument, timeframe, and chart panel. Right-click the same icon to capture the chart and open the sharing window for email or StockTwits. Chart Share automatically saves the image to your Documents\NinjaTrader 8 ChartShare folder and names it with useful chart details so it is easier to find later.

Capture directly from the chart toolbar.
Right-click share
Open the sharing window for email or StockTwits.
Full context

What Chart Share does
Chart Share is a simple chart-capture and sharing utility for NinjaTrader 8 traders who save screenshots for trade review, support questions, notes, or sharing. After installation, it adds the camera icon directly to NinjaTrader chart windows and chart tabs. Left-click the icon to capture and save the full chart window. Right-click it to capture the same complete image and open the sharing workflow. It captures the full chart window instead of only the chart panel or a manually cropped screen area. It is chart-focused; it is not meant to add capture controls to every non-chart window type.
Key features
- Captures the full chart window, including toolbar, tab area, instrument, timeframe, and chart panel.
- Adds the capture icon automatically to chart windows and chart tabs.
- Left-click saves chart images automatically to your computer.
- Right-click captures the chart and opens the sharing window.
- Creates and uses a Documents\NinjaTrader 8 ChartShare folder.
- Names image files using the instrument, data series, date, and capture time.
- Keeps saved charts organized and easier to identify later.
- Capture and save require no extra configuration after installation.
- Share by email or post to StockTwits through your NinjaTrader Share Services accounts.
Why it is different: NinjaTrader has built-in chart sharing, but it takes more steps and captures only the chart panel. Chart Share is built for a faster one-click workflow and includes the full chart-window context.
Why traders use it
Without Chart Share
- Reach for a separate screenshot tool or a manual crop every time you want to save a chart.
- Lose the toolbar, tab, instrument, and timeframe context when you grab only the chart panel.
- Drop images into a generic folder with generic names that are hard to find again later.
With Chart Share
- Left-click the chart toolbar camera to save the full chart window in one click, no cropping.
- Keep the toolbar, tab area, instrument, timeframe, and chart panel in every capture.
- Auto-save to a Documents\NinjaTrader 8 ChartShare folder with filenames built from the chart details.
Common uses
- Saving trade setups or chart analysis for later review.
- Sharing complete chart context with support or another trader.
- Avoiding manual screenshot tools and partial captures.
- Keeping chart screenshots organized by instrument, data series, and time.
Frequently asked questions
Does it capture the entire chart window?
Yes. It captures the full window, including toolbar, tab area, instrument, timeframe, and chart panel.
Where are images saved?
Images are saved automatically in your Documents\NinjaTrader 8 ChartShare folder.
Can I share captured charts directly?
Yes. Right-click the Chart Share camera icon to capture the chart and open the sharing window. Sharing runs through NinjaTrader’s Share Services; email and StockTwits are currently supported, using the accounts you configure there. NinjaTrader has removed its Twitter/X and Facebook share adapters, so those networks are no longer available.
Do saved images include a watermark?
Yes. Each saved image includes a small High Tech tagline at the bottom of the chart panel. It automatically adjusts to light or dark charts.
Is Chart Share free?
Chart Share is included at no additional cost for NinjaTrader 8 customers who have purchased other supported products.
Requirements: Windows and NinjaTrader 8.0.27.1 or later.
