Hi

I have configured IB Live and Paper accounts in MT. 

I noticed that the Portfolio will only update the data when IB Gateway for the Paper account is is open and logged in. So I need to run two instances of IB Gateway for live/Paper at all times. How can I change the Portfolio to work with my live account? 

 

Thanks and regards,

quotes and trading in MT are separate.  You have 2 of IB Gateway instances setup to allow connections through 2 different ports.  in MT set the data to access the instance that is for the production.  SETTINGS / DATA SOURCES / Configure Accounts- select IB. then on right change the port.
