Actual and Sim accounts?

[Karado58]

Good morning,

How do I switch between Sim101 accounts and my actual trading Interactive Brokers account? Can this be done on the fly?

How do change it to my actual trading account and make it default?

Thank you for you help!!

Hello Karado58,

Thank you for your note.

Make sure your Live license is entered under Help -> License Key, then go to the File menu and uncheck Global Simulation Mode.

After this open up a SuperDOM window or Chart trader and you will be able to toggle between your Live account(s) and the Sim 101 account.


Once Global Simulation Mode is disabled you can switch between your live account and the SIM101 account on the fly from the Account drop down menu.


Regarding changing your trading account as default, you can disable starting in Global Simulation Mode from the Tools -> Options -> Simulator Tab -> uncheck Start In Simulation.
