Ninja trader forced close

[lazedout]

Hey.

I just went to trade on a new laptop as its the only thing I have right now where I am.

I downloaded TWS and already had NT.

When I open NT, input my password, NT and TWS open up as per usual. About 10-20 seconds later I get a NT message saying:

"TWS forced your connection to close. Ninja Trader is unable to automatically reconnect. Please shut down Ninja Trader and reconnect manually to TWS: No more data to read."

TWS: 921.5 (Initially tried the newest version available for DL on IB)

Its not a big deal as I will be back to my original setup tomorrow, but I would like to know how to fix this.

Thanks
