Is there an FAQ on how to share the same setup of NT8 across two PCs?
In NT7 I used to be able to share the indicators, strategies, templates and workspaces by replacing the relevant folders under C:\Users\xyz\NinjaTrader 7\... with hard links to my Dropbox folders (which would mirror parts of the NT file structure). I used to keep the original folders but would rename them to "Indicators_old" etc.
As long as you only use one instance of NT7 at a time this worked beautifully.
In NT8 this fails as the _old folders still get picked up by NT8 and as such the indicator compilation fails due to 'duplicate' indicator definitions.
Unfortunately deleting the _old folders won't work either since then NT8 can't find the definition of indicator anymore.
I am stuck - can anyone help with this?
The obvious question really is:
Will it ever be possible to select a custom path for the NT8 configuration files? This has been requested since I started working with NT about 6 years ago...
Thanks in advance.
