How to delete old/closed accounts from account list?

[dalecast]

Can someone shed info on how to delete old accounts from NT7. I have one active account and I cannot delete the others as you can in NT8.

Hello dalecast,

In order to remove old accounts within NinjaTrader 7 you would be required to rename the database with the steps provided below. Keep in mind the following items stored in the old database will be lost - ATM Strategy templates, Session templates, Instrument Lists / Custom Instruments, historical trade execution data, saved Strategy Analyzer backtest results.

• Shutdown NinjaTrader and Go to the Start Menu
• Select My Documents--> NinjaTrader 7--> db--> "NinjaTrader.sdf" file (may only say 'NinjaTrader' depending on your Windows File Explorer settings)
• Right click on NinjaTrader.sdf and select "Rename." *Name it "OLDNinjaTrader.sdf."
• Then restart the software and NinjaTrader will create a fresh database file to use

Let me know if I may be of further assistance.

Thank you! This worked like a charm! Might be a good idea to add into the manual :-)
