Zombie position

How do I get rid of a position in an expired instrument? There's no market data so I can't close the position.

Dave, you could do a DB reset to remove it.

I certainly wouldn't want to lose everything in my db. Any other ways?

I understand - have you tried connecting to the Sim feed to close it out?

Thanks - I will wait until the markets close to try that.

Can you tell the simulator which instruments to generate a price for?

It would generate a price if a start price is entered in the master instrument setup.
