I have an IB license (from NT7) and have in the past traded successfully on IB through NT7. I'm working this morning to port my workflow to NT8, and can't seem to figure out how to enable trading.
My TWS has already been set up for use previously in NT7, so I don't think that's the problem. As a further precaution I followed the connection guide for NT8 and IB, and confirmed that I'm correctly set up.
Right now, my NT8 is "locked" in Global Simulation Mode. I don't have it pre-set to start that way, but I can't seem to turn it off.
When I connect to IB, I do get market data. However, I don't get any of my accounts showing up - it only shows "Sim 101" under accounts when IB is connected.
I also confirmed that I don't have "Read Only API" set under my TWS Global Configuation.
Thoughts on this?
