cant find sim account and how to prevent connect on startup

[Austiner87]

Hello NT,

I just downloaded the latest version, and after I enter my password, I get a "trade live" or "trade simulation" options which connects to different connections once NT starts. On the Live one I have the Live account and the Sim on I have a DEMO#### account. First Q, is that when I add a Sim account, it doesn't appear on Live or Sim connections even when I disconnect and reconnect as it says so, and it also doesnt appear after restarting NT. Separately, prev versions I didnt have to choose Sim or Live after entring my password, can I get it back to the version I had before where I just connected Live and could "select" a Sim account on the accounts tab in the control panel and not get the "trade Live" or "Trade Sim" option windows on startup. Lastly, how do I make it so NT doesn't connect on startup - I thought I had it this way before in Options menu but I cant find it now. thank you

Hello,

Thank you for your inquiry and for using NinjaTrader!

With regard to the first question, you'll need to enter into Multi Provider mode. To enable Multi Provider, you may use the guide at the link below;

How To Enable Multi-Provider Mode on NinjaTrader Desktop

To connect while in Multi Provider mode, you will need to create and connect to your connection using the guide at the link below;

NinjaTrader Connection Guide when Multi-Provider Mode is Enabled

Once you've completed the above, you will then have the ability to select the Sim101 account or any other internally created sim account from the Account dropdown.

Additionally, as long as you do not select it, connect on startup will no longer be the default.
