Subject : RE: Issues with autotrading & todo lists..

I think I understand what you are looking to accomplish -- you have 2 accounts and want to be able to auto trade different methods -- one for each account.

I currently have multiple accounts at GXT. One account I use Auto Trade to trade the ATM Macro/Micro method. The other one I trade using Auto Trade using a heavily modified derivative of ATM MM.

You are right, one instance of OT can only auto trade effectively 1 account.

My solution is to run multiple instances of OT - each instance set up to trade against a specific account. You can do this in a variety of ways. Some people use the cloud (Amazon, Azure, other). Some people use multiple laptops/desktops. Others have used VMware, VirtualBox, Hyper-V or KVM to provide a local virtual machine. The best answer is to stick with what you are comfortable managing.

For me, I use a set of virtual machines. One to trade the ATM M/M, one to trade my derivative, and one that I manually trade with. I also use virtual machines to conduct testing and research (create and destroy the virtual machines as needed).

Once the machine is set up, I just let it run and trade.

Does that help?
