Hi,
Recently I newly open an additional IB account, an account separate from the original one.
Within the same workspace of auto-paper trading, I tried to connect chart A to IB simulated account A and another chart B to IB simulated account B. There is no problem with account A, the original one.
But orders of account B were rejected with the following "Logs" message,
"Account "DUxxxxxx does not exist. Please enter a correct value in or leave blank the Default Account field in Settings tab of Interactive Brokers Properties dialog."
I did as suggested but order was still rejected.
market data is from account A.
Please help.

Hello, LMC1,
Please open chart B and go to Strategy Properties -> Auto Trading -> Select broker plugin -> IB -> click on the gear icon. In “Interactive Brokers Properties” window enter the correct name of Account B in the Default Account field and click OK.
If it helps, double check if the correct account name is specified on each chart.
