Creating Simulated Accounts for a Connection via API

[vivekniwas]

Can the credentials be supplied to a Connection Dynamically ?
Can a Simulated Account be created for the Connection Dynamically ?
I see NinjaTrader has APis for the above.

Connection newConnection = Connection.Connections.FirstOrDefault(c=>c.Options .Name="Client1"); // Client1 Connection Name will be configured from NinjaTrader UI
newConnection.Options.Password="xyz"; // Password will be retreived via an API from Vault
newConnection.Options.User="abc"; // Username will be retreived via an API from Vault
Connection.Connect(newConnection.Options);
newConnection.CreateAccount("SimClient1", "SimClient1", "", Currency.UsDollar); // AccountName will be retreived via an API from Vault

Hi vivekniwas, thanks for posting. The only supported interface for the connections in NinjaTrader are documented here:

https://ninjatrader.com/support/helpGuides/nt8/NT%20HelpGuide%20English.html?connection_class.htm

You can still use unsupported or undocumented code if it works, but this can change or break in the future with no warning. I have never seen a connection generated through code.

Kind regards,
