Hey guys, I'm trying out Interactive Broker's Trader Workstation, but I everytime I try to place an order with BookTrader it tells me "specify an account", but I cannot find where I can specify it. I really appreciate the help, thanks!

If you have multiple accounts under the login you will have to specify the allocation for the account. You may be able to enable that in the settings/configurations.

First column in the order row there is called 'account'. Click on that and you'll get a dropdown to specify from which account you want to execute the order.
