2. From within the Control Center window, select “Tools > Account Connections…”
3. In the Connection Manager window, press Add…
4. Follow the instructions provided in the Connection Wizard
5. As per the image below, enter in the information provided by your broker
6. Leave “Demo mode” unchecked unless otherwise instructed
7. You will now be able to connect to your account via the Control Center window “File > Connect” menu

Important: OCO (one cancels other) orders for Trading Technologies are locally simulated on your PC. This means that NinjaTrader must be connected to your broker in order for the OCO capability to function. If you are disconnected and one of the OCO orders are filled, the other WILL NOT be cancelled.

WARNING: Carrying Positions Overnight is not Supported

NinjaTrader does not support the reporting of overnight positions when trading through Trading Technologies (TT). The TT server environment is highly flexible which results in non-uniform position reporting through the TT API to NinjaTrader from one broker to the next. We advise you NOT to carry positions overnight (between sessions) since NinjaTrader will inaccurately report your position which can adversely affect your account.
