Using Interactive Brokers (IB) via the IB Gateway API, is it possible to access 30 different futures accounts within the Ninjatrader platform via a single login? I don't want to use "Financial Advisor" or "Family and Friends" accounts at IB as all the accounts belong to myself. When I logon to IB trade server (API) using Ninja platform I want to see 30 different accounts (showing in the Ninja "Accounts" tab window) that belong to mself and then I will run 30 different strategies on each of the 30 separate account. i.e. Strategy 1 will place trades in Account 1. Strategy 2 will place trades in Account 2, etc., etc. Thanks in advance. Regards, Rod.

It should be possible, you can already create 30 simulation accounts in Ninja to see if there is a limit there (but if there is one it should be more than 30).
Then the next thing would be to have a machine with enough RAM, count between 500 MB and 800 MB per IB Gateway instance so you'll need a 32 GB machine if the 30 IBG are running on the same machine.

I would ask Ninja directly. My experience is they are very good at answering questions.
