I was trying to set up Simulated Futures trading earlier, and switched some things about my account, But then switched it back to Teton CME Routing (Trading). But now when trying to execute a trade I am getting an error message. Please see the attached.

Those error messages are a rejection from the server indicating insufficient margin. You need to contact your broker about this. Select the error message and then select Edit >> Copy Selection and then you can paste it wherever you need.
