Why are trades being copied to accounts that haven't been checked?

This article explains why Replikanto may appear to copy trades to a follower account that is not checked, and how to find the source of the unexpected copy.

What is actually happening

Replikanto will not copy trades to accounts that are not checked. What may be happening is that there are other Replikanto windows or tabs configured for the same instrument and the same leader account, with the follower turned on (checked). Trades are then being copied from another Replikanto window or tab that the trader is not aware of.

Check for other Replikanto windows

1. Place the mouse over the NinjaTrader icon in the Windows task bar.
2. Review all the windows that are open in NinjaTrader and look for Replikanto.
3. If you find another Replikanto that is copying, close it and test again.

Check for other tabs in the current window

1. If there are no other Replikanto windows, look at the additional tabs in the current window.
2. Find the tab that is making the copy.
3. Close that tab and try again.

Confirm the copy has stopped

1. Place a limit order away from the price.
2. Check the NinjaTrader Orders tab to make sure the copy has not been made.
