The account in the trade window is an F account, for Friends and Family. This account allocates the trades to the two accounts under management, which are U accounts, that's why you see two different accounts starting with U. The symbols are correct. At the time I was in the positions indicated. Please ask more specific questions so I can answer. Just to be clear: The F account has no money in it, save for what's needed to pay for quotes. It buys/sells a number of contracts that are then allocated to the two U accounts under management through an allocation formula (proportional). SC option to allow for Advisor account is True in Data/Trade Service Settings.
