Very basic question about access Account name

[Solido]

Hi there,

I got a very basic question about writing strategie but i can not find solution on my own. I'm programming on NT since 2 days only.

I run my Strategie from the strategie tab and i need to access the configured properties Account name inside my script. Intellisense show nothing like this.

A link to the NT C# html Api or a piece of advice will be helpfull.

Thank you in advance.

What are you trying to do with the account name? You cannot dynamically change this in your code.

I will expose my goal maybe you can orient me in a more convenient use of NT.

We are dealing with several brokers, several accounts and about 80 instruments.
Our trading sys generate signals that contains the account and the instrument.

I'm testing NT to became our main tool and avoid using several platform like TT, JTrader, etc

I was expecting to program one strategie per instrument to read the corresponding signals and process them when requiried but maybe i'm doing it the wrong way.

What's the best approach to deal with the situation ? we do really think that NT can feet our needs.

Thank you for sharing your experience

To clarify, a single instance of a strategy in NinjaTrader can only be tied to one account at a time. This means any orders generated by the strategy can only be sent to the account specified at the time of starting the strategy.

You can run multi-instrument strategies, but again you can only submit to one account for the instruments in the strategy.
