Market Replay for Papertrading?

[Mike2012]

I’m using the free version of Ninjatrader. I’ve been trying to do some paper trading with Market Replay (not interested in using simulated data) but I haven’t been able to figure out how to save my session results. Every time I disconnect from Market Replay all my trades disappear and my account value goes back to it’s original amount. I read in the help guide that free users are only allowed one Sim account so…..

Can I delete the Sim101 account and use the Replay101 account instead?

Or do I have to by a license before the Replay101 account will record trades and keep an account balance?

Mike,

Unfortunately this is to be expected. There is no way to switch between replay101 and sim101 accounts in market replay or simulated trading, as they are separate things.

Please let me know if I may assist further.

So market replay currently can’t be used for paper trading unless you manually record the trades and account balance, even with a license?

Mike,

You can export it using Excel after you are finished but still connected to Market Replay.

Right click > go to grid > export to excel.

Please let me know if I may assist further.

Ok thanks, I’m also having a bit of trouble with my simulated data feed. When I’m connected nothing is showing on the charts. Everything is set to ES-03-12, I’ve tried restarting Ninjatrader and opening new charts but still nothing?
