A trading study can only take trades on the trading account that's selected for the chart. So in the simplest sense, no it's not possible to have some trades on one account and other trades on another account.
However, with some cleverness it may be possible to split trades as you suggested. You will first have to run two copies of the trading algo on separate charts; One copy per trading account. Then, you need a way for both instances of the algo to communicate with each other. I am currently successfully running a configuration where I have two charts; one with a parent trading study and one with a child. My main study has two account settings where it shuffles conflicting trades to account #2. These do have to communicate with each other depending on trade conflicts. My initial layman's idea was to have 4 account settings coded with an added Deterministic Approach, like you mentioned above, to basically switch one or more accounts to demo. This new feature does not have to behave dynamically. But the original (dynamic) function must remain to avoid bi-directional trade conflicts. Date Time Of Last Edit: 2024-04-09 21:13:33
