NJT8 new Install / Lifetime Commissions

[Mykro]

A few days ago, I installed a fresh install of NJT8.

In the "Control Center" in the "Accounts" tab, I right click in both of my Live and Demo accounts and choose "Edit Account" and in the " Propeties Window" I choose "Commission" and I then choose "Ninjatrader Brokerage Lifetime" for each account, since I have a lifetime license...

When in "Strategy Analyzer "and choose "Include Commission" and then run the Optimization, the results end up at $0.00 Commission's... Why is that..? This version of NJT8 is different than before.

Thanks Michael

Hello Michael,

Thanks for your post.

The Strategy Analyzer uses the commission template set on the Sim101 account for including commissions in a backtest or optimization.

To access the Sim101 account in the Accounts menu, go to Tools > Options > General tab and enable the 'Multi-provider' option. You will need to restart NinjaTrader after enabling this option.

Then, right-click on the Sim101 account in the Accounts menu, select Edit Account, and set the commission template for this account.

After applying the commission template to the Sim101 account, you will be able to include commissions in a Strategy Analyzer backtest by enabling the 'Include Commission' option.

See the help guide documentation below for more information.
