Commissions on Strategy Analizer

[Joaqvil]

Hello there, I have a doubt. I use the strategy analyzer and I check the box to include the commissions but when I have the results the commission row shows $0. I thought that by going to tools>commission, and by setting the minimum and per unit commissions for the futures and for the MES this will solve the issue, but it didn't.

I have had a similar issue, as of 2019 (I assume it's still the case), "the prior orders you've executed will not be applied with commissions, however, the new orders you execute will have the commissions applied."

That response is taken from this thread: https://ninjatrader.com/support/foru...r-live-account

Perhaps customer service could refute this, but it has been the case previously and I have been able to verify it experimentally on my platform

Hello Joaqvil,

Thank you for your note.

As intmainvoid314 has noted, the prior orders you've executed will not be applied with commissions, however, the new orders you execute will have the commissions applied. That being said, I do not think that is the cause for what you are experiencing. Although you have adjusted commissions in Tools > Commissions, you must also apply the commissions template in question to the Sim101 account because that account is copied to be used for the backtest account.

You may apply a commissions template to the Sim101 by following these steps:

• Go to the Accounts tab of the Control Center
• Right-click the Sim101 account and select Edit Account
• In the commission field, select the desired template
• Click OK to save the change

Yes, that solved the issue, commissions where not linked to Sim101, thanks to both of you.
