    Desktop NT8 only allowing live trading- there is no global simulation?????

    Hi, Does the newest desktop NT8 allow for global simulation mode? I need to have that feature, even though I take live trades, because I don't want to accidentally enter a trade until I'm ready. I need to be able to switch quickly out of demo mode to live trading. This doesn't seem possible with the new desktop version, or if it is possible, I haven't figured out how to do it. Please help, I will have to find another platform for my live trading if I the global simulation ability is gone.

    Can anyone confirm, please, that there is no longer a way to move quickly between simulated and live trading?

    So, I did some reading and found out that Global Simulation comes back if "multi provider" mode is enabled, so I did that, and configured my ninjatrader continuum data to my data username and password, but it isn't connecting to my live acct anymore, says Sim 101, and I get an error when trying to get data.

      Nevermind, I have data now. I had entered the password incorrectly. Now I have the option for Global Simulation.
