[Kirk Thorns]

Hi, I have a few questions


1.Can I use one license on two separate PCs at the same time?

2.Can I run two Algos on two different brokers on the same PC?

3.my goal is to run multiple algos in different brokers simultaneously is this possible and if so are there any special requirements?

Hello Kirk Thorns,

Thank you for your post.

1. No, this would not be possible and would violate the NinjaTrader terms of service. To trade live from two different PCs at the same time, you would need a license key for each. You'd also likely need a secondary set of login credentials or two separate brokerage accounts, since many brokers do not allow for simultaneous connections to the same set of account credentials.

2. Yes. As long as you have a multi-broker key and are connected to both brokers at the same time, you would be able to run a strategy on each account. However, it is important to note that you may run into a technical limitation if both brokers use the same connection adapter. For example, if both of your brokers use NinjaTrader Continuum or Continuum to connect, you would not be able to establish a connection to both simultaneously because the Continuum adapter only allows for a single connection at any time. This is something that your broker may be able to workaround if they offer multiple options for the connection technology.

3. Yes, this is possible but just be mindful of the information I mentioned above. You will need to a multi-broker live trading license and be able to simultaneously establish a connection to both.
