Shadow strategy with SIM 101?

[KennyK]

Hi,
I have been using a shadow strategy on my SIM 101 account but the shadow trades don't appear any where in the performance tabs. Does the shadow strategy option work on the SIM 101 account? Or is something else wrong? How can I get it to work?
Regards,
Ken.

Hello,

Thank you for your post.

Shadow trades actually take place in the Sim101 account however an order to an external account (like a brokerage account) would be required to initiate the shadow strategy.

How about if I created a second sim account and used that?

Hello,

That would not work - the primary order must be submitted to an account external to NinjaTrader.

Ok, thanks Kyle.
