sim101 set-up

09-16-2008, 12:46 AM

Hi,

I have tried to set-up my sim101 account in control centre/tools/options/simulator tab but I can't seem to get it to reflect an actual account.

I want it to show $2500 as minimum amount, $500 required per futures contract and an initial value of $10,000.

So I set it as follows:

Cash: 10000
Margin: 0
Maintenance Margin: 0.25
Margin / unit: 500

Then I click reset/ok
BUT when I look at the Accounts Tab it shows buying power of 20,000 and nothing in the initial margin etc.
