NT Automatic Logout
IB TWS automatically logs off and which causes it to lose connection with NT. Obviously if you are in the middle of a trade then this is no good. IB cus rep advised me that this cannot be changed but I could use IB Gateway which does not auto logoff. Is IB Gateway compatible with NT? If not does NT have any solutions for this problem other than changing the auto logoff time to a time I'm awake as well as when the futures/forex markets are closed?

IB Gateway
I try to use it (IBGateway) now.
In order to run NT with Gateway I :
1. Run IB Gateway
2. Make connection from NT - it opens TWS
3. TWS display message about 2 sessions with same user - I click OK - this disconnect IB Gatway
4. In few minutes IB Gateway display same message about 2 sessions and I click OK disconnect TWS and wait until NT connect with IB Gateway
5. Manually close TWS
In NT account connections I set port to IBGateway port (default 4001) and TWS is set to different port.
I don't know if all works ok - I'm just testing .
Regards,

Thanks for your insight. I'll give it a try and see what happens. For now I trade mainly forex so I just set my auto logoff to 5:01 PM EST which is 1 minute after the forex markets close for 15 minutes. At least it shuts down when the markets aren't moving...THANKS

I changed to NT, and convinced already a number of other people to do so, for the possibility to trade automatically with IB. So, I find this kind of problem hard to believe. It is useless that a strategy will only work for 24 hours. If NT sells a connection with IB, NT should solve this problem. If the solution is the IB gateway, why is it not yet implemented?
Please put this at the very top and first thing to do if you want to sell more NTs...

Hello Sylvestro,
There are settings in NinjaTrader 7 that allow you to determine the behavior of automated strategies during a disconnection. You can find these settings at Control Center-->Tools-->Options-->Strategies-->NinjaScript-tab. Please see the link below for information.
If you select KeepRunning, the strategy will not terminate but it will keep active and running during a disconnection. It will not submit any orders during the disconnection since the strategy requires real-time data to calculate its conditions. Once you are re-connected, the strategy will continue to run and behave as you programmed.JasonNinjaTrader Customer Service
