    Live Trading - problems connecting

    I've been paper trading and backtesting with Kinetick as my data feed and Interactive Brokers (simulated account) as a secondary connection. Now I'm ready to go live, but I'm having some trouble making it function.

    I have a funded live account 100% ready with IB and everything is configured in NT8 to connect (passwords etc). I attempted to go live on Friday by 1st connecting to Kinetick and then connecting to the live IB account (instead of the simulated one I was connecting to before). I also had put my live login/pass in IB Gateway with no problems. As I traded, my Kinetick connected balance changed, but the IB one didn't move. This pretty much means I was not trading live.

    What am I doing wrong?

    Hello JayKeepsTrading,

    Thanks for writing in.

    When you are submitting trades, do you have your live account selected in the order entry window you are using to submit the trades?

    I look forward to your reply.
