BitMex: SC doesn't send orders and switches to SIM - Mode.

I'm using a trial version of SC in connection with SC. 12days left on the trial, so that should not be the problem.

Last week, everything went fine, I connected via API and could trade.
Today I logged in as usual and wanted to post the first order but upon clicking on the DOM, SC automatically switches to SIM - mode.

SC restarted, PC restarted, API connection deleted and reestablished with a new key. Still the same behaviour. I toggle SIM - mode off, post an order, SC immediately switches to SIM - mode. My BitMex account is funded and I can post orders through the web - interface. It's just SC doesn't forward orders to BitMex.

Trade Activity Log says:

"Trade Simulation Mode has been disabled. Toggled by user"
- > "Flagged to reload Trades list in charts"
- > " Trade Simulation Mode has been enabled. Enabled because Service does not support trading."

So what's going on here?
Is there a transaction limit on live trades during the trial period? I haven't changed anything after last weeks trading, besides logging in from another computer.

Pls help.
