Post From: Link Sierra To Two Separate Subaccounts At IB

I did some more reading on a trader site where someone from IB had answered a question regarding their advisory master/subaccount trading structure. I don’t think that will work for what I was thinking because if I understood it correctly, the trader in the master account just allocates a percentage of the trades to all the subaccounts.

I may need to just open a second account at IB whether it’s linked or not really wouldn’t matter then I can put an instance of TWS on one computer for one IB account and a second instance of TWS on another computer for the other IB account and reading your user guide I think I just need to change the port number to something else like 7494 on the other TWS instance and Sierra instance and it should work.

If that is about right, could you tell me what additional costs there would be compared to what I’m paying now.

Thanks…
