I was previously SIMming for TopStepTrader and you had an issue with CT4 where your Data/Trade Service settings window had no account field. This was fixed and working. For some reason I still could not get any data through the Trade Activity Log but TopStep was receiving my trade data.

I received incorrect chart & DOM data and you suggested I update the software which I did and then none of my chart symbols were correct so I cleared them. I am still unable to get my symbols to work & note that now the account field on the Data/Trade Service Settings window is once again missing.

Here is a copy of my message log. Thanks, Melissa
