hi

I looked around but could not find my answer, excuse me if it's a re-post

i want to run multiple independent strategies on ES. both strategies go long/short independently, therefore, there are times where one strategy is long and one is short. not for the portfolio at this time would be flat. BUT this is how I want it to run.

i know it's possible to do this on NT. but when doing this in real time, does anyone know how the broker reacts to this? are these brokers able to partition my account in small accounts for each strategy? or will I have to open multiple accounts? i sent AMP an email, will post reply once i receive it. was curious to find out what others do to make this work

I use IB for strategies but yeah, had to use two separate accounts...
