Hello,

Thank you for your post.

Which build of TWS do you use? To check please click Help > About Trader Workstation.

I'd recommend removing the log and trace file as they contain some information you may not want to make publicly available.

Kyle, I am using build 921.5.

Kyle, How do I delete the log and trace files?

[NinjaTrader_Kyle]

Hello,

1.) With the current release of NinjaTrader you should be using the 927.7 build of TWS. Please shut down NinjaTrader and TWS then install via this link: http://www.ninjatrader.com/ninjatrad...tall_927_7.exe

2.) There should not be any need to remove these files manually. If you feel that you must remove the files, shut down NinjaTrader in advance. Log files are located in the Documents > NinjaTrader 7 > Log folder. Trace files are located in the Documents > NinjaTrader 7 > Trace folder.

Hello,
Please make sure you have configured TWS properly.

• In TWS menu bar goto Edit>Global Configuration
• In the Global Cconfiguration dialog, click on API>Settings and please make sure the option "Enable ActiveX and Socket clients" is checked.

Please refer to our connection guide which further illustrates it

Cannot connect to IB

I am using 7.0.1000.11 64 bit. Using Kinetick as data server which connects first, then I get the machine refusal to connect message.

Thank you for your assistance.

IB Connection

Kyle,
This morning I attempted to restore NT from a backup taken when the connection to IB was working. I got the following message:

NT was unable to restore the selected backup archive file. Cannot find the central directory.
