Mulit-Broker Connections Outside Accounts

[Shifu987]

CAN NT8 handle adding outside accounts NOT under my name using Multi-Broker? I can add MY other account but not someone else account, how do I do that.

I see that I CAN add my Tradeovate/ Apex account to NT8 (as Master) and using Affordable Indicators Duplicate Account Actions Software I can copytrade. from NT8 to the other (slave) accounts.

Hello Shifu987,

Thank you for posting.

If you are an authorized trader on the account you will simply create the connection within NinjaTrader then connect along with your other personal account(s).

Let me know if I may be of further assistance.

I don't follow how NT would know if the account was "under your name" or not. It's up to the outside broker to allow you to connect or not based on your provided credentials.

Right, need more details, WHAT is the definition of "Authorized Trader".... does Ninja check for the Social Security # ? or ?... So IF I am NOT listed ...it will NOT connect?

NinjaTrader will not check any identification such as SS#. To confirm you have authorization to trade the account in question I suggest contacting the broker directly to verify this information.
