I've set commissions in symbol settings but not seeing them reflected in sim trading. Obviously, I'm missing something. Thanks

On the Symbol Settings window make sure the option for "Use Custom Symbol Settings Values" is enabled. Refer to the following:
Global Symbol Settings: Use Custom Symbol Settings Values (Global Settings >> Symbol Settings)

For the Trade Activity Log, you need to set "Use Commission" to "Yes" in the "[DisplaySettings]". Refer to the following:
Trade Activity Log: Use Commission

For individual charts, and the related Trade Window, you need to set "Chart >> Chart Settings >> Trading >> Use Symbol Commission Setting in Trade List and Statistics Calculations" to "Yes". Refer to the following:
Chart Settings: Use Symbol Commission Setting in Trade List and Statistics Calculations (Chart >> Chart Settings >> Trading menu)
