    Getting Account Info Programmatically

    1. Is there any way that I can programmatically retrieve the IB account number that I'm using from within the strategy itself?
    2. I have several IB accounts. Some of my positions are managed by NT strategies and some are managed discretionarily. Is there any way that I can programmatically determine for each account the profit or loss across all instruments managed by NT so I can issue exit orders if a certain profit or loss is hit across all managed instruments?

    Hello,

    Thanks for your note.

    There is no way to do this programatically and would need to be done manually.

    Strategy Position vs. Account Position:


    This would also need to be done manually. You can see all your PnL in the accounts tab.

    Let me know if I can be of further assistance.

      ib no

      Not sure if this is what you mean.
      Assuming you don't have hundreds of accounts - you could just check one string against another

      ie if (accountid.CompareTo("Sim101") == 0)
      {do something}

      You would have to declare accountid of course.
