Multiple MBT accounts in NT

[melbmike]

Hi Ninja,

Just wondering if it is possible to trade a two MBT accounts (one fx, one futures) through NT simultaneously? MBT require clients fund and margin separate accounts for fx and futures - is there a way to link these in NT so I can trade both on a single broker licence? I asked MBT this and they directed me back to Ninja. Transcript below:

Securities products are offered through MB Trading, member NASD, SIPC, MB Trading Futures, Inc. (MBTF) and 3DForex, LLC are CFTC registered FCMs and members of NFA.
You have been connected to MBT Ron.
MBT Ron: Hello, Welcome to MB Trading! How may I help you?
Mike: Hey Ron, how are you doing?
MBT Ron: Outstanding! How are you?
Mike: Just a quickie - Can I open a futures account & a fx account with MBT and trade them bother through Ninja?
MBT Ron: You will need a separate Forex and Equities account on our Desktop platform.
MBT Ron: Once you have those created you will contect them to your Ninja account.
MBT Ron: connect
Mike: Okay - so they're funded/margined separately but can be linked and traded simultaneously through ninja on a single broker licence?
MBT Ron: You will have to ask the Ninja Trader company that question. Ninja Trader is their product and they have their own policies. Although Ninja Trader is compatible with our platform we are not authorized to provide support for their product.
Mike: okay, that's fair enough

Thanks in advance.

Hi Mike, welcome to our forums - unfortunately you could not maintain two different MBT Connections at the same time, it would be possible if both accounts are listed under one login to the MBT Navigator.

Thanks Bertrand! First time poster, long time loiterer.

FYI - MBT say:

Mike: from NT: "it would be possible if both accounts are listed under one login to the MBT Navigator."
MBT Ron: then it should work!
Mike: oh okay - so ill have one MBT nav login for both accounts - equities and fx?
MBT Ron: yes, and while logged in you may switch between accounts.
Mike: okay great, thanks for that. "

So I guess we're a go!

Cheers
