Pseudo Accounts

7749 views January 7, 2022 Pritesh 5

Pseudo Account

This is where you can add, remove or modify your pseudo accounts. Pseudo accounts are nothing but dummy account created for achieving broker independence.

Our API functions accept a pseudo account which in turn points to an actual trading account. More information about accounts can be found in Pseudo Accounts.

Note: Trading account creation screen has a checkbox to create a pseudo account. If you already created a Pseudo Account by keeping it ticked, then there is no need to create a pseudo account again.

You can give easy to remember names to Pseudo accounts, it really helps those who are managing multiple trading accounts.

Admin

How to create?

  • Access your Pseudo Accounts (Menu: Settings -> Pseudo Accounts)
  • To create a new account, click “Create” button.
    • For ease of use, give same Account Id as your trading platform’s login id or an easy to remember name
    • Map it to your desired trading account
    • Mark it Live to enable trading
  • To modify/delete an existing account, click on the account’s “Account Id”
  • To disable trading into an account, untick it’s “Live” flag

Note: One pseudo account maps to only one trading account.

Rename

Renaming can be useful to portfolio managers, as it allows you to give a custom name to a trading account. It is far easier to remember an account by some meaningful name instead of a login id. Please look at the demo below to know more:

Rename Account

Delete

You can open pseudo account & delete it from there. This will free up the trading account associated with it, so that you can map it to a new pseudo account.

Validate All

To validate login credentials of all accounts, click “Validate All” button. If you are managing multiple accounts, then it is a good idea to validate all accounts before you begin your trading day.
