Edit account balance on sim101?

[dee50]

Is there any way of changing the account balance on sim101 account? I know I can add user sim accounts with my live trading licence, but you can only do that by disabling global simulation mode, ie. Going live. Something I am not too keen on doing unless I am actually trading live, which if I am, I do not need the sim account active. Sound convoluted??

Also, sim101 is the default sim account so if you re-enable global simulation mode the account defaults back to sim101. HUH???

Any ideas or is it just so.

Many thanks

In the Control Center go to Tools-.Options-> Simulator tab and you can adjust the settings, account balance etc for the sim account.

Thanks VT, but that does not work, never has in 3 years. Although you are right, the help file does indeed say that the parameters can be set "initially" I think this might be the key word.

Hmmm, you can't select the initial value on the "account side", and then use the reset button on the "Misc side"? It works for me doing it that way.

Logical really. Many thanks, never thought to try that. It actually works. NT should put that in the help file, save stupid questions like mine.
