Automatic login?

[Antonios]

Is it possible to get the software to login automatically at a specific time?

At my FCM the TT eurex server cannot be logged into until just before the exchange opens at 2am EST. I want to be able to create an automated system that places orders based on the open without having to be awake at 1:30am to login.

Through some 3rd party macro system likely.

would I be able to write ninja script to accomplish this?

could you show me where I might find a 3rd paty system to accomplish this?

It would be a very useful feature for anyone using the TT version.

No you can not get NinjaScript to do this. What about connecting before going to bed, when Eurex comes on, I suspect you should be able to trade it? Just test this by having NinjaScript execute a trade after the market opens in the Sim101 account.

I don't think a have a 3rd party program to login will help since you have to also have the strategy applied to a chart. I suggest trying the above to see if that works.

right now my FCM is having problems getting ninja to log me into the TT eurex server so I know it won't work right now. I ran NT overnight last night and this morning was not logged into Eurex.

I see. Then what you will have to do is have NinjaTrader running and use a 3rd party macro tool to connectto your broker, go to a chart, start the strategy.

I was playing with the ninja trader c# tutorial and I noticed that it connects without ninjatrader running. If that is the case then I should be able to write c# code to accomplish my goals.

Can multiple connections be made using this interface? I believe the TT connection doesn't provide market data so I would need to subscribe to another.

When using the multibroker edition is it possible to use one broker connection for data only while executing through another?

What do you mean connect without NinjaTrader running?

I have ninja trader installed on my computer. The c# sample runs and connects to the simulated feed without starting the ninjatrader software. I just loaded the sample app in c# express and hit run. I thought it was using the ATI interface but it seems that it directly accesses the Ninjatrader.core.dll and therefore operates without Ninjatrader running.

I assume this would work for live feeds as well?

[NinjaTrader_Ray]

Ah...

You mean the NinjaTrader Framework sample C# app. NinjaTrader does have a .NET based framework which is actually what the NinjaTrader application is built on. Yes you can built you own application using our framework but at this time, we do not provide any support for it.

On a slightly different not, I wonder why there is no option for NT for force a username and password login every session. Unless I am missing something that should be a built in optional security feature, like many other trading patforms have?
