How to send half size to C2

[blar58]

I have a question specific to Collective2.

I would like to send only half of what I trade to collective2 web site from NinjaTrader.

Is it possible ? if yes, any ideas how I have to set up the account Group ?


Thanks for your help

Hello,

Can you please clarify what you are trying to accomplish?

Do you mean if you submitted an order for 200 contracts, you would only want 100 sent to Collective2?

Yes Matthew this is exactly what I want to do

Hello,

Thanks for the clarification - yes it is possible to do this by specifying the quantity multiplier in the account group name.

The syntax for this would be :

C2;Strategyid;YourPassword;QuantityMultiplier


From our Help Guide:

For example: If you are trading 10 lots in your account and you specify a value of "0.5", the C2 order will be submitted at a quantity of 5. If the result is an uneven number, NinjaTrader will round up to the nearest whole number.
