Multiple Machines

[underground]

Is it possible to run NT on more then one machine at one time? Using the same connection settings and broker account? Reason - using NT forhands freetrading, playing over 5symbols at once, wanted tokeep each machines overhead down plus keep things straight so there won't be any mix ups.

You can run NT on more than one machine but Patsystems will not allow multiple logons to the same account.

Thats if you have to get the PATS user id right? I once was running SR on Multi machines at one time thru the same broker and they use PATS also?

SR manages accounts/logons through their own gateway before they establish connections to the Patsystems servers. With every other product that trades through Patsystems, connections are established directly to the Pats servers. These servers only allow one logon at a time. You can have multiple accounts under one logon though.

So say I wanted tot run NT on 5 machines at one time, are you saying I would then need to open 5 different accounts with my broker? Or could I lease 5 PAT user id's from my broker? How would I do this?

[NinjaTrader_Ray]

Yes, 5 different accounts.

Our experience has been different at Man Financial. We have a single account but multiple Pats User Logins for that single account.

If they allow you to do that then NT will allow you to do that.
