NT8 launching TWS simulated instead of Live - why?

[Irukandji]

Hi

I have configured the settings exactly as per instructions but now NT8 is running the show, it is launching the paper/simulated trading version of my Interactive Brokers instead of the Live account - why? I entered the login details for the Live account, not the sim?

Thanks.

Hello,
Thank you for the response.
In order to live trade with Interactive Brokers within the platform, you will need to purchase a leased or Lifetime license key below:

In addition, if you have a single broker license key enabled for a different brokerage, you will need to upgrade to a multi broker license key. If you have further questions, please feel free to write in to platformsales[at]ninjatrader[dot]com.

I already have a lifetime license key with NT. thanks.
