How do I find out all connection and account details?

06-21-2020, 06:42 PM

I see that Account.Name gives me the account names, now how do I determine the system name and connection name, broker name etc?
For example if I want to know if my trade took place in the sim account, paper trade account, or live account.

Hello lakersfan,

Thank you for your post.

The Connection a particular account is associated with can be retrieved with Account.Connection.Options.Name:

NinjaScript > Language Reference > Add On > Account > Connection

https://ninjatrader.com/support/helpGuides/nt8/connection.htm

Connection - Account

Account.Connection.Options.BrandName would get the provider name:

NinjaScript > Language Reference > Add On > Account > ConnectOptions

https://ninjatrader.com/support/helpGuides/nt8/connectoptions.htm

ConnectOptions

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