At this time, I'm using Trading Evaluator Accounts that I just set up.
I just tried with 3 simulation accounts (on top of "SC Data - All Services") and got the same issue, it even crashed.

The freeze or crash occures after performing the following sequence from blank new Chartbook.
I have before enabled extra sim accounts in Trade -> General Trade Settings -> Number of Simulation Accounts set to 3
And I have selected simulation mode in the Trade Menu

1. File -> Open Trading Dom (I choosed ESM23-CME)
2. I opened the associated Trade Window (Trade -> Open Trade Window for Chart) Sim 1 is selected
3. In the M menu, go to Settings -> Order Allocation to Trade Account
4. In the Available Accounts (List) : choose "Sim2", then click on "[Add]" text button (it shall appears in the Allocation Accouts (list)

Let check it works with a single account in the list:
set "Order Allocation to Trade Accounts Enable" to yes, then click "Apply All" and "OK"

5. In the DOM place a limit order (far away from current price).
As this is is brand new chartbook Confimation popup appears and it shows: Additional Accounts: Sim2 Qty: 1
Confirm and change account in Trade Window from Sim1 to Sim2: the order is here.
Also check in Trade -> Trade Orders Window.
Taking order at market also appears in Sim2 and in Trade -> Trade Orders Positions it does not appears with simulation account (this shall be expected), it appears when using Trading Evaluator.

6. Adding second Allocation to Trade Account, repeating step 3 and 4 choosing "Sim3" reveals the bug.
i.e.: form sim1 Account, in the M-menue, go to Settings -> Order Allocation to Trade Account, then in "Available Accounts (List) choose "Sim3", then click on "[Add]" text button.

Repeating the steps adding directly from 4 the second account, does not work either.

I get it work one time accidently :-) with 2 allocated sim account, by playing with the "A" text button before the "[Add]" text button, or doing things in a different sequence, but now I'm not able to repeat the workarround.
