Trading Multiple Accounts

Viewing Information - "Current Account"

When trading multiple accounts from the same window, you will one account per row displayed in the Account Information window:

The "Current Account" will be displayed with bold text.  Account 6050 above is set as the Current Account.  This means that the "Open Positions" window will display open positions for account 6050.  Change the Current Account by right-clicking on the new desired Current Account and select "Set Current":

 

Placing Trades - Highlighted Account

When placing a trade, the New Order will default to whichever account is highlighted with a darker background color.  This is achieved simply by clicking on the account row you wish to place a trade for, or by using the Ctrl-click to select multiple accounts.  In the following example, a trade will be placed for account 6050, and will have a default amount of 1 lot:

 

In the next example below, the next trade will be placed for accounts 6050, 6051, and 6052:

This trade will have a default amount of 4 lots (1 lot for account 6050 plus 2 lots for account 6051 plus 1 lot for account 6052).  When the order is filled, the 4 lots will automatically be allocated among the 3 accounts as per the DA numbers (i.e., 1 lot for account 6050, 2 lots for account 6051, 1 lot for account 6052).  

However, the Open Positions window will only display the position for the account that is set Current (6051 in the above example).
