On restart all order entry windows show the Sim101 account

[JoshDance]

I am running the newest NT live (.6), and global simulation mode is off. When I open NT, I have two charts with chart traders on, and a DOM. The account for all three is by default Sim101, even though global simulation mode is off, and I have to manually change to my brokerage account. This is not expected behavior is it?

Hello,

Thanks for the note.

It is as long as the account name starts with a letter that is after Sim101. What is the first 2 letters of the account name as seen in the account drop down?

I look forward to assisting you further.

It's just the account number.

So are you saying I can name my account "Josh" (from the account connection dialog) and this will work?

[NinjaTrader_Brett]

Hello,

Your numbered account I would expect to load first as NinjaTrader loads accounts based on alphabetical order in the drop down list.

Please email me at support at NinjaTrader dot com and we can work together on some testing on this to see whats going on here.

I look forward to assisting you further.

Hello, It happened to me too.
I have solved it by disabling the account setting: 'connect on startup'
Launch Ninja, then connect with your account, Ninja will load this account on DOM, chartrader,etc.

Connecting on startup has nothing to do with what I'm asking since I'm not restarting NT. I'll just not worry about this and create a new DOM if I want to reset the P/L.
