Hello eddkoh,
If you have an IB account in NinjaTrader you would just need to select that when using a strategy. Strategies by nature only use a single account so if you are trying to send a trade to more than one account you should not use a strategy. You could use an Indicator or Addon for that purpose. Scripts that do not use an account at all like an indicator could make use of the addon framework to access an account by name. https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...ount_class.htm
Strategies are not suggested here because you need to write trading logic for one account using strategy methods the second account would have a whole separate set of logic based on the addon account which is confusing in a single script. An indicator would just use addon account methods for trading for all accounts which simplifies the syntax used a lot.
Please let me know if I may be of additional assistance.JesseNinjaTrader Customer Service

Thank you for your kind assistance. I would like to have 10 different accounts belonging to 10 different people copying trades of a master account belonging to a good trade. I saw your post with the following links. Are the following suitable to what I have described?
Thanks!

Examine the Network Replicator product.
This means that you have NT8 running on 10 different machines, with 10
different accounts from 10 different people connected, one account per
person per machine. Then, each if these 10 machines needs to run the
Network Replicator "client" product.
Finally, you run the Network Replicator "master" product on your machine,
and it copies your orders to the 10 follower machines.
This setup sounds kinda pricey. I mean, you'll need 10 different PCs,
each running it's own licensed copy of NT8, and each running its own
licensed copy of the Network Replicator client. But if you're making
the bucks, these are simply the costs of doing business. Thankfully,
they are fixed costs.
I don't know IB that well, but I thought they had some cool feature to
setup trade copies at their end, as long as all slave accounts were
IB accounts, of course. Investigate this heavily. If that is available,
it easily sounds like it would be the best solution. I mean, assuming
their 'copy' feature works the way I hope, NT is not even involved.
What? How is that?
Easy. The entire trade copy configuration (your "leader" acct plus
10 "follower" accounts) need only be known to IB. As your broker
processes orders on your "leader" account (sent to IB from your
PC running NT), they have the obvious power to duplicate these
order actions from your IB account to your "follower" accounts,
which are also IB accounts. Sweet!
Latency for the 10 follower accounts would be non-existent, since
all the copy activity is happening at the broker, on the broker's
servers. No internet is involved as they replicate your orders to
your designated client accounts. That's even sweeter!
You'll need to do more research with IB to see if this service is
available -- and if so, how to set it up.
Good luck!
PS: Don't expect NT support to know answers to these IB
related "trade copy" questions -- that's not their job. If this
feature exists at IB (I hope it does, I just outlined how it could
work above, and it sounds very cool), it would be a service and
benefit provided by IB, not by NT. Thus, contact IB directly.
