Hello Sune,

Can you please use the instructions below to reset the NinjaTrader database and check if this will remove the accounts at Tools-->Options-->Automated trading interface.

• Disconnect NinjaTrader from any open connections via Connections > Disconnect
• From the NinjaTrader Control Center window select the menu Tools > Database Management
• Press "Reset DB"
• Check Historical Orders to remove historical orders
• Check Historical Trades to remove historical trades
• Press the "Reset" button

If the accounts are still present, please rename your database using the following steps:

• Shutdown NinjaTrader and go to the Windows Start Menu
• Select 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 - https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...up_archive.htm
