Hi,
I recently went through the same thing.
With a Sim license, you can use your IB Data feed.
When you buy a lifetime license, you can no longer use your IB Data feed.
You can A) Revert back to a Sim only license and use IB data feed for backtesting etc. (but you can't trade or paper trade even)
B) Purchase a multi broker license and use your IB Data feed and whatever other data feeds you have. And live trade/paper trade.
To add one recent discovery which I was not aware.
If you use NinjaTrader and IB to trade Equities during Pre or Post market the ATM function does not work.
It is documented in my post here:
Hi, I am trading from NT Chart Trading using ATM Strategies. I am trading equities in the premarket using IB Paper Account as a testing base. My ATM orders are going in as Sell STP, which are of course not supported in pre/post market trading. I have experimented with [Chart Trader][Properties] -> Pre defined stop limit

Disable the trading with your current broker, and instead licence it for IB as a single broker?
I guess that would be at the discretion of the NinjaTeam,but I always found them really cool.
Can always drop them over an email.
I personally have the Lifetime Multibroker which gives good flexibility. Now I can loose money in multple accounts!!
