How do I trade live?

07-24-2009, 10:21 AM

I just upgraded to NT live trading for Interactive Brokers however, I am unable to trade live.

My Interactive Brokers account shows up in the control center under accounts but I am unable to trade from it. From every trading screen, the account drop down menu is grayed out and Sim101 is selected.

How do I trade from my Interactive Brokers account?

Hi cshep,

Thank you for your post.

Please click the File menu in the Control Center and uncheck (and therefore disable) Global Simulation Mode. You will now have access to place orders in to your live account.

Thanks!

Either I didn't see that in the instructions/help or it isn't there. I could have been struggling with this all day.
