    Unable to close position in Demo account

    I get the following error:

    Sim101, Order 'long number here..' can't be submitted: Not enough excess margin. affected Order: Sell 1000 Market

    Good thing this is a demo account.

    Any ideas on this?

    Hello,
    This indicates that the simulation account needs to be reset as the simulation margin has decreased.
    Resetting a simulation account will clear all historical trade data from this account. Please follow the instructions below to reset a simulation account. (This can take long depending on the size of your database file and your system.)

    From the NinjaTrader Control Center window select the menu Tools> Options.
    Select the 'Simulator' tab.
    Press the 'Reset' button.
    If you do not want to lose your trade data, uncheck the 'Clear history' box (This must be left checked when wanting to remove a stuck sim order)

      Sorry I don't see a "simulation" tab in the Options window. I don't see any tabs at all.

      How can I attach a screen shot here?
