The only broker I know of that runs a data feed off Pacific time is E-signal and does not offer a Metatrader platform unfortunately. I made a spread sheet of different broker times, thats the only reason I know. I did a backtest with one of my ...

how to change metatrader time according to computer time

Brokers will never give us live feeds identical to their demo feeds. Too many factors differ. Requoting, server load, actually having it run through a dealing desk. I don't know of any company that would spend the resources requoting demo orders to ...

Backtest vs Forward vs Live

Something in the new build? Or you might have loaded an indicator it didn't like. I had that problem, anytime I loaded my NZD profile it would freeze metatrader. Eventually had to go delete all my indicators out and add 1 at a time back. Annoying, ...

Metatrader problem...help!!!

Yeah, they are great. This gave me a good excuse to upgrade from my old 1gig one to a new 10gig one. Yay toys. Did I need it, no. Does the wife think I needed it, yes.

Increasing Lot Hedging - GBPUSD, USDCHF, USDJPY

The only way to connect Metatrader to an ECN is through a bridge. Last I checked they were still working on it, but I don't believe they have any retail versions available out there. Forget which broker was working on it.

Any ECN that supports MT4 ?

On a demo account, it will be in the original email. Click on the mailbox tab in metatrader and find the account you are looking to get the investor password for. For a live account, it is in the same place and also in the documentation they ...

Imagine a FOREX TRADERS ASSOCIATION. Imagine the Power

Forex traders do have an association thats main goal is the protection of the client. CFTC In my experience, the NFA is there to make examples of the offending party and regulate the market makers according to their rules. The NFA cares little about ...

Getting flagged after a withdrawal

As far as price differences/ server feeds are concerned, that is not the clients problem. There are plenty of ways to combat this with widening spreads and whatnot. Hey, if it's still to much risk, just say no news trading and set policy to requote ...

Getting flagged after a withdrawal

Hmm... proof. Well, here is the trade reversal letter I got from FXCM a week after a large news trading day last year. If you fight the broker on it, you will win. However most brokers will atleast Try to scare you into thinking what they are doing ...
