I just got a demo IB account and I am not sure why I cannot sell short EURUSD. The demo acct has 1MM USD in it.
When I open my fx pro and try to sell 100K EURUSD I get a rejection message stating there is insufficient cash -1000000EUR in your acct. Is there a setting within NT or TWS that I must set so that this is avoided? It clearly looks like there is a currency denomination issue that I am overlooking. I have no problems buying EURUSD.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
