How to Reset a TradeStation Simulation Account
The TradeStation program is a stock market tool that allows you to manage your investment portfolio by buying and selling stocks. TradeStation has two modes: real-time trading and simulated trading. Simulated trading lets you buy and sell symbols without actually making a purchase or selling stocks. It's helpful if you want to familiarize yourself with the TradeStation system or with the process of buying and selling. After you've made a few mock trades, you may want to reset your simulated trading accounts to the software default.
