I've done the following:

0. Purchased live Denali data and Teton routing.

1. Created simulated account in Trade >> Trade Account Monitor.

2. Funded the account in Trade >> Trade Accounts Monitor >> Balance >> Adjust Account Balance.

3. Selected Trading Evaluator [trading] in Global Settings >> Data/Trade Service Settings >> Current Selected Service.

4. Unchecked Trade >> Trade Simulation Mode On.

5. Checked Trade >> Auto Trading Enabled - Global.

6. Checked Trade >> Auto Trading Enabled - Chart.

7. Added the following to ACSIL study:

SCInputRef SendOrdersToTradeServiceInput = sc.Input[6]; // Route to trading service
if (sc.SetDefaults)
  {
SendOrdersToTradeServiceInput.Name = "Send Orders to Trade Service";
SendOrdersToTradeServiceInput.SetYesNo(false); // Default to No (false)

8. Before applying the study, I set
SendOrdersToTradeServiceInput
to Yes.

9. When the ACSIL function is applied, the following line is run:

// Set order routing to either sim or trading service.
sc.SendOrdersToTradeService = SendOrdersToTradeServiceInput.GetYesNo();


Is there something that I am missing. Manual trades appear to go through using the Simulated Trading Serivce.

You are not stating what the issue is that you are having. What is the exact error message you are getting. Check both your "Trade >> Trade Service Log" and the "Window >> Message Log" to see what information is in them.
For the most reliable, advanced, and zero cost futures order routing, use the Teton service:

I was able to troubleshoot this issue. After adding DEBUG messages to the message log, I learned that the arrays weren't populating with data; hence, no order submission conditions would ever appear.
