By default, for instance, the color of the Trade Mode Box in the upper left corner tells you if you are in Simulation Mode or not. But that color is changeable, so you cannot look at that and know for certain that the user is in one mode or another.

Another item, such as the Account Number, can be turned off so it is not displayed. And even though the internal Simulation Mode only uses "Sim1", "Sim2", etc. for the Account Numbers, the person could be connected to our "Simulated Futures Trading Service" instead of a live account. So you still cannot be certain of what they are connected to.
For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service:
