Hi-

I've gone through the tutorial on trading two accounts simultaneously but I'm still getting the same P/L on both DOM screens.
I'd like the ability to trade long and short at the same time.
I'm using Esignal RT asmy feed (my only feed). I'm also using the trial version of Ninja Trader. I set up two different strategies, one for each Dom. When I open them and try to trade them independently, they are are not giving independent P/L like it shows in the tutorial. My question is, do I have to have an addition real-time account (other than Esignal) to run another Dom (it doesn't say in the tutorial)? Or is there something else I'm missing?

My screen cap enclosed

Thanks for help

Hi,

Can you tell me what the Strategy Selection Mode is set to? You need to set it to 'Display Selected Strategy Only' Make sure you do this for both DOM's before you place the orders.

Right click in the DOM and select Properties--> Strategy Selection Mode and change this to 'Display Selected Strategy Only' Then click Apply and OK.
