Changing accounts to fire orders

NJA_MC · 03-30-2012, 07:23 AM

Hi,

I would like to be able to change the Account an order is sent on the fly.

For example, I may want an order at 9AM to go to my Live Futures account, and an order at 10AM to go to the SIM01 account all within the same strategy.

I am okay with a complex solution that works, but this is critical for people looking to use equity curve trading.

Hello NJA_MC,

The account is set at the start of the strategy run, through the UI. Changing the account dynamically is unfortunately not supported.

Unfortunate...

Can you make sure it gets into the next version as a request?
