Multi Threading with Multi Broker License

[Flash Futures Trader]

The threading assignment is clear based on previous posts.
However, I do not see reference to specifically the NT multi broker license.

Question: In a multi-broker license environment where-as I am signed in to two "funded evaluations "each using a "different data source" i.e. one on Rithmic and the other using CQG, will a "new thread" be assigned to this second evaluation for charts and DOM that uses a different data source?

Hello Flash Futures Trader,

Thank you for your note.

My understanding is that for each separate connection there will be at least one separate adapter thread. Adapter threads are any thread spawned by the adapter that your . This is different from adapter to adapter and callbacks triggered from the adapter will call into NinjaScript code. Each adapter is a little different, an adapter can have a separate adapter thread or multiple separate adapter threads depending on the architecture for whatever best matches the architecture of the third party we integrate with.

However, I want to note that data for an instrument type can only come through a single source. The source data comes from when you have multiple connections each with live data will depend on whether or not you have Preferred Connections set up in Tools > Options > Market Data > Preferred Connections. If you have specified there which connection the platform should use for a specific instrument type, NinjaTrader will use that connection by default for data for instruments in that category. If you do not, data will be attempted to be loaded from the first connected connection that supports that type of instrument, whether or not you are actually enabled for that data from that source.

For example, let's say I don't have a preferred connection set for Futures instruments and I am trying to load data for ES 03-22 and I have both a Rithmic and a NinjaTrader Continuum (CQG based) connection. If I connect first to my NinjaTrader Continuum connection and then to my Rithmic connection, NinjaTrader will automatically use the NinjaTrader Continuum connection for the data for my ES 03-22 chart and all other futures charts, even if I opt to then route orders to my Rithmic account instead.

Please let us know if we may be of further assistance to you.
