Trading Multiple accounts with account groups

[newtrader1]

Hi

I have managed to setup and account group with 2 accounts assigned being sim101 and 102.

When I enter a order against the account group I can see the order is pending in for both accounts. When I modify the entry price it only gets reflected in one of the accounts and not both and this is the same if I close a position. Is this a limitation of how account groups work as I would expect anything that is placed against the account group DOM to be replicated in the assigned accounts.

I have used other software that provides this functionality. Just wanted to make sure I am not doing something wrong or are there any plans to improve the way account groups work so everything that is applied to the account group is the same for the assigned accounts

Thanks

Hello,

Thank you for your note.

This is expected.

The following is from the account group section of the Help Guide: http://www.ninjatrader-support.com/H...verview15.html

NOTE: Subsequent cancellations and or order modifications will NOT be replicated against each order, you must manage each replicated order individually

Have a great day and happy trading!

Thank you for your reply,

Are there any plans on improving this so it would provide the functionality I asked about.

This feature of account groups seems like it has not been upgraded since 2007......

This functionality is VERY helpful to manage retirement and investment accounts. However, it makes sense that if you are moving a group account all entries, stops and order modifications/cancellations would happen in across all accounts associated with the group

Please advise if there is a plan to upgrade this functionality in near future

Thanks

Hello Pedro,

Unfortunately, I am not aware of any plans to upgrade this in the near future.

I will forward your feedback to support account groups in such a way to development. Thank you for your feedback.
