[soyjesus]

Hello,

How could I know my total account balance in realtime (cash + open p&l)?

Thanks in advance and regards.

Hello soyjesus,

Thank you for your note.

The Accounts tab in the Control Center would be the best resource in the platform to use to see your available cash balance and P&L in real time. I am not aware of a method to combine these columns outside of custom programming.

The primary resource (and the ones in control of your actual PnL) will always be your broker and we would recommend contacting them for the most accurate information.

The available account information in the platform varies between brokers, please see the following link for more information: http://ninjatrader.com/support/helpG...TheAccountsTab

Let us know if we may provide further assistance.

Thanks for your answer Chris,

But the problem is that the column "UnrealizedPnL" doesn't work correctly in realtime.

I have a closed positions and openned positions and the information is refreshed in the column "Realized PnL" but the column "Unrealized PnL" isn't refreshed and it haven't any information.

If you visit the link Chris provided, it details what account information can be expected to be received in NinjaTrader depending on who your brokerage technology is. The table is towards the bottom of the link. Here is a screenshot:

Does your broker/provider supply Unrealized PnL? If not, then I would not expect Unrealized PnL values to be provided.

Thanks Patrick,

My broker is Ninjatrader Brokerage.

NinjaTrader Brokerage uses NinjaTrader Continuum. It is expected that this connect would not provide an unrealized PnL value. Please review the table in the link below to understand more about what account information you can expect:
