Two Schwab driver bugs

[carnitron]

1) Every time I connect to Schwab in NT8 one of my live accounts has a different seemingly random PnL for the day that does not match the trading I have done. It doesn't obstruct my trading, but it does make tracking what is going on confusing.

2) I have seen an instance where my Schwab account was authorized (i.e. the "Authorized" button was greyed out in the Schwab properties section in the Connections dialog), but then when I tried to use my AddOn to trade, a dialog popped up and said I wasn't authorized. The fix was to delete and recreate my Schwab connection. I've only seen this once, so I do not have reproduceable steps.

Cheers.​

Hello carnitron,


Thank you for posting on the NinjaTrader forums.


Can you please start a case with our support team by emailing to clientservices@ninjatrader[dot]com ?



Once received we'd ideally like to be able to reproduce it and get it in front of the development team to see if they are aware of this already. Seeing that the adapter is still in beta I'd like to get this as much visibility as possible before it is finalized.


Feel free to reference this forum post as well.


Thank you!

Done! Thanks for your help. Cheers.

Just want to ask a quick question.
Is it possible to trade futures with Schwab also?
I'm using TOS for now but fill speed is not that great.

Hello kalalex,


Futures trading is not compatible with Schwab, only stocks trading is available. I know it's available through Schwab directly however it isn't doable through NinjaTrader.


Thank you.

Hello kalalex,

Hi Luis,
I don't understand this part. So I should contact Schwab to enable or something like that?

Hello kalalex,


No, it's not supported and not something to be turned on. Futures trading is not available through Schwab when using NinjaTrader.


I hope this helps!
