Re: [Quickfixj-users] Using QF with two IB gateways

[Walt J <wa...@gm...>]

I'm in the process of getting configured on the IB side, so I'm still
working out how things work.

It's looking like for now that I'm going to have to log into the Gateway
with a username linked to my accounts but not to my wife's.  Her user name
is associated with her accounts.

Are you saying that IB will allow for a gateway logged in under my username
to send orders for my wife's accounts if I specify a different compID?

Am I understanding this correctly?
