After adding an account to the NT Account Manager (NAM), you can optionally set up to 5 unique account-level Trading Windows by clicking on the "gear" icon in the Actions column for each account.
Account-level trading windows behave similarly to both the and and , with some exception.
To set a trade window, simply click the "Enabled" checkbox next to one of the window labels (ordering doesn't matter), and set both a "Start" and "End" time, which are both set in Eastern Time (NYC).
At the global level, a single trade window can be set that applied to all inbound signals. Alternatively, trade window can be set that applies to the individual alert/order. With NAM you apply up to 5 distinct windows per account.
If the arrival time of an alert signal is inside any of the five trade windows, the signal is allowed to proceed. If the alert is outside all five trade windows, the alert is blocked and the alert is logged with the reason why it was blocked.
When a webhook alert signal arrives at CrossTrade, we evaluate whether or not the signal should proceed by looking at many different possible configuration settings. Among them, the global controls in the , the in each message, and any settings at the account-level in NAM.
