Accounts grayed out

[monypat]

I have obtained my new PATS connection but I do not see the account size and I cannot bring up the live trading in my new account. I have not enabled the always start in sim mode but I still cannot see how to open a trading window for my live account. Every time I open the super dom it defaults to sim.

The new account shows on the accounts window.

Hello Moneypat,

Please ensure that your live license key entered. While in NinjaTrader go to File--> and uncheck "Global Simulation".

Let me know if this resolves your inquiry.

Yes Michael, thats great, thank you.

I understand that the account information is dependent on the broker to enter it. Is this correct as right now I see a buying power much less than the account size.
