Locking NinjaScript to a Single User

[TrendTracker]

Is there a way to lock NinjaScript to a single user? Both Tradestation and eSignal offer this capability.

Does the RemoteSoft Salamander product do this, or is there an easier way?

Thanx in advance.

Salamander protects your code. You can try the 3rd party vendor licensing available in NT. Please contact sales [at] ninjatrader [dot] com for more information on vendor licensing.

Hey Josh.

Is there a way to, via NinjaScript, lock an indicator / strategy to a single user?

Maybe a possible way to retrieve some distinguishing trait; the NT license or account number?

thanks

Hello,

Yes, you can. This link should help:

However I will notify Josh of your post as he may know of another way to do this.

Thanks Ben!

mrlogik,

Unfortunately the only thing available would be the 3rd party vendor licensing. For more information you will want to send an email to sales [at] ninjatrader [dot] com.

Ok Josh,

Thanks for the info.

This is something that hacks me off. If I want to send an indicator to someone to use or test I should be able to limit it's use to only that person without having to be a commercial developer. That is a ridiculous requirement and a change should be a part of the coming update. I would have no problem having to enter a line of code in the indicator and recompiling in order to activate it for another person. Please give us the capability.

Thank you for the suggestion. I will forward it to development.
