Can't Delete an old position based on a nonexistent contract

[dmking]

I have an "Old Position" from an OLD Strategy Project that I can't delete.

If I click on the position on the 'POSITIONS TAB" and then click CLOSE POSITION on the position, I get "There is no market data available to drive the simulation engine. affected Order. Sell 100 Market"

How can I get rid of this phantom order that's hanging around?

Thanks

Hello DmKing,

Thank you for your post.


We advise that you reset the Simulation account to resolve this item.

Resetting a simulation account will clear all historical trade data from this account. Please follow the instructions below to reset a simulation account.

• From the NinjaTrader Control Center window select the Accounts tab
• Right click on your simulation account and select 'Edit Account'
• Press the "Reset" button

If this is a Live Order we advise that you rename your database to resolve this item using the following steps :

• Shutdown NinjaTrader and Go to the Start Menu
• Select My Documents--> NinjaTrader 8--> db--> "NinjaTrader.sdf" file (may only say 'NinjaTrader' depending on your Windows File Explorer settings)
• Right click on NinjaTrader.sdf and select "Rename" *Name it "OLDNinjaTrader.sdf"
• Then restart the software and NinjaTrader will create a fresh database file to use
• Unfortunately the following items stored in the old database will be lost - Trading Hours templates, Instrument Lists / Custom Instruments, historical trade execution data, saved Strategy Analyzer backtest results

To prevent running into situations where you can potentially lose important data, we advise running regular backups via our inbuilt backup feature in NinjaTrader - http://ninjatrader.com/support/helpG...up_archive.htm


Please let us know if we may be of further assistance.
