multiple accounts NTBrokerage

[robje737]

Hi,

can i use one chart with an automated strategy to direct the signal to multiple accounts?
At present i can select SIM101 and i see my other ( Dorman ) live accounts, but only able to select one of them.

I'd like to get my trading signal to 2 accounts at the same time. Or do i need to open two different charts with the strategy loaded?

Kind regards,

Rob

Hello robje737,

Thank you for the post.

You can not manage multiple accounts from one strategy, but you can run two instances of the same strategy on one chart with a different account selected for each instance.

I have made an example video illustrating this:

Please let me know if I may be of any further assistance.

Hello Chris

Could you repost the screencast?
Does it allow me to send information from one strategy on one account of the other strategy on another account?

Thanks in advance

Hello Paulito123,

Thanks for the post.

The link still works on my end. Try the link from Internet Explorer since screencast requires flash player.

There is no way for two strategies to communicate data that is supported. You could set up a property changed event in the UserDefinedMethods file and have the strategies communicate that way. I go into detail on this subject on this post:

Please let me know if I can assist further.
