Mirror trading a paper account

[GotherL]

Exactly. Paper fills are perfect. Exactly as you order. Real world fills don't work that way. I traded my IB paper account up over 1M LOL! If I could have done that in the same time period with my live account, well I would probably be too busy to be in this thread right now.

Just did testing when adding liquidity.
It's not filling me even though the 10.93 bid got taken out. I imagine on other simulators they would be too lazy to implement a realistic wait order on your fill and just put you in front or on more crappy sims fill you even if the bid was never touched.

On a live account my 200 share order should be showing on the bid but since it's just a demo.

To overstate the obvious simulators simulate. Close but no cigar.

Well, I never even mentioned once that my profitably on paper means I will be profitable trading live as well. Just pointing out that the sim I use is more realistic than other sims when it comes to fills.

Yea more realistic .... at simulating. That is also my point.

Hey, I get it that simulator is unrealistic pseudo crap that only get amateurs overconfident. If that wasn't so, I be making millions right now instead of wasting my time on an internet forum.

Just started a new discord server today. Absolutely killing it on the calls. Got over 55 members already. Trying to figure out if I should put a subscription service or just ask for donations. I am gonna see if anyone actually donates first. (Don't wanna check my account early and ruin the surprise.)
