I have a small question which i am sure thishas probably come up before but Id rather ask again than not have it answered. When i put a simulated trade on with the ninjatrader dome are fills based on market conditions and liquidity or is it just picking the current price no matter the volume and just giving you the closest price?I have been doing well but i dont want it leading myself into a false sense of confidence in how well I am doing.

NinjaTrader provides a state of the art internal simulation engine that you can use to test trading ideas and hone your skills. The simulation engine is not a simple algorithm that fills your order once the market trades at your order price. The engine uses a scientific approach to determine fill probability by including a number of variables including ask/bid volume, trade volume, time (to simulate order queue position) and random time delay for switching between order states.
