Set commissions for linked Interactive Brokers account

05-13-2020, 06:07 AM

Hi, I cannot get NT8 to include commissions for instruments provided via my IB link. Chart shows data fine, backtests work but no commission included. I have set the commission in the commission part of options and also linked the commission template to the account. Any good ideas?

Thanks,

When using the Strategy Analyzer for backtesting, make sure you have applied the commissions template to the Sim101 account in the Control Center's accounts tab as well as enabled 'Include commissions' when configuring the backtest:

Thanks, I added the template to the Sim account also and that worked.
