I have an account with the Trading Evaluator different than sim1. I do not use sim1. I'm on Trading Simulation Mode ON as this is the requirement to turn on the replay mode (if I do not confirm it doesn't allow me to replay the chart) It automatically sets the sim1 then, but I manually change the account back to the one I created for FDAXM futures. When I place an order it says: Cannot submit non-simulated order when in Trade Simulation Mode.
When I want to disable the Trade Simulation mode it will disallow it with regard to the fact I'm on replay. It seems like a vicious circle.
When on live (delayed) market the account works fine and the orders are processed flawlessly.

I believe it is something related to replay mode that kicks in and wets the blanket.

What you are seeing is correct functioning. The Trading Emulator is a simulation environment itself, therefore when you are connected to it, you can not go into the built-in Simulation Mode. And, as you state, when you run a replay, you have to be in Simulation Mode.

What you can not do, is change to the Trading Evaluator account while in a replay and have it work. Since you are in Simulation Mode, only Simulation Mode accounts will work. This is why you are getting the error you are.

Regarding the last candle spreadsheet formula. I managed to put it all together as you suggested.
The numerical outcome is fine, but how should I make the line run across the chart until the following day (couple of days, until intersection etc.) like the one marked directly on the chart?
What if I'm in another timezone and I would like to copy this settings for MES or 6E ?
Many thanks for your assistance.

The information we gave you is to specifically show the line across the chart for the current day. You just need to make sure you have the subgraph for the column that has the last formula displayed.

Is there a possibility to ignore weekends on Volume by Price study? It keeps showing Sundays data that adds additional unrelated levels to the crowdy chart.

Refer to the following setting:
Chart Session Times: Load Weekend Data Setting (Chart >> Chart Settings >> Session Times)

subinstance won't load the data today. Yesterday it more or less worked (I disconnected and reconnected several times). Today it keeps showing yesterday's data. Delete & Download won't help.

Get us the Message Log for the Sub-Instance by following these instructions:
