Hello fscabrera03,

Thanks for your post.

Communications between strategies was not something that was designed in as they are intended to run independently.

That said, you can create shared methods. Please see this example by my colleague Chelsea here: https://ninjatrader.com/support/foru...est#post733956

Ok, lets think that I have 2 different scripts, first one open longs and the second open shorts.
If both are using the same account, should be work?
I still dont have any reponse about the way to have 2 playback accounts simultaniously

Hello fscabrera03,

Thanks for your reply.

"I have 2 different scripts, first one open longs and the second open shorts. If both are using the same account, should be work?" On the same instrument and same account, you can only have one account position. Both strategies run independent of each other and will maintain their virtual positions however if one strategy places orders while the other strategy is in a position, the position could either be closed or added to from an account perspective. We do not recommend running two strategies on the same instrument with the same account. We would advise opening a second/sub-account that would allow you to then run the two strategies independently of each other.

There is only one playback account, you cannot have two.
