.... oh no , again! Well yes, apologies, but let me see if I got it right. I use NT 6.5 (yes, don't ask!)
a) 1 account with Forex.com to trade FX, 1 account with IB to trade futures. 1 NT Multibroker live license will be ok AS LONG AS I use it on 1 PC. If I want to use simultaneously NT live with Forex.com on 1 PC and and NT live with IB on another PC I would need 2 separate (single?) licenses. How am I doing so far?
b) I understand the order of connection is crucial, so I should connect to Forex.com first (so FX data will come from Forex.com, but no futures data), then to IB (I guess it will see that FX data are already updated so I would not need them, so it should not be bothered with sending them, but send instead the data I do not have, i.e. futures, right?).
Connecting to IB first would make the second connection to Forex.com redundant, I guess? But I will still need it in the (mad!) case I wished to trade via Forex.com using IB FX data....right?
c) In the case of a single license to IB, if my IB account was a Master Account with several sub-accounts, I should be able to connect to the Master account and somehow allocate trades to the different sub-accounts. Right? I am not talking about same orders to be sent to different sub-accounts, just, say, FX to one sub-acc and futures to another). Also, I am aware that there are some issues regarding a bug on the new TWS version that did not exist on the older (unavailable) versions, but I understand that I would still be able to get the desired allocation right. Right?
Thanks and best regards
