| Hi, Im wanting to switch my account from sim to micro's for both ES and GC. Can you please advise how I can do this as I am unsure after reviewing the support materials. I believe I may need to go into Global Settings> Data/ Trade Services but not sure what to amend here and whether there are any other steps I need to take. Please see screenshot for current loadout. |

| So you want to trade live the micro version of those contracts? The settings in Data/Trade Service Settings are correct already.
