Trades not showing up in Interactive Brokers account!

[M_ichel]

Hi.

I purchased a license for the NinjaTrader platform (7) and created a connection to my Interactive Brokers simulated trading account.

I am able to connect.

I placed two dummy trades, using the NinjaTrader "Basic Entry" panel, one buy and one close. These gave all appearances of having executed, displaying information on a chart of the instrument.

However, when I check the trades report in my IB account, using TWS, these trades are not listed.

Am I missing something here?

Thanks.

What account is selected in the Basic Entry's account drop down list? Here is a screenshot example:

Hi Patrick.

If "SIM101" is a default value, then that was probably it. I don't recall touching (or seeing!) it.

I'll check this later because now I have another problem: I can't connect to my IB account at all (real or simulated). I'll post a new thread for that problem and come back here if necessary.

Thanks.
