It's hard to diagnose the issue with just this info. But, you may want to look at magic numbers as a way to solve the problem. Otherwise, install and run a second instance of MetaTrader.

One MT4, 2 EAs

Yeah, I don't trust the CFG guys. I have a friend trading an account size like yours and he experienced similar stuff. It's one of the issues I brought up with CoesFX when I signed up with them. Gilbert is the guy that got the relationship going ...

Here it is. I'll describe the settings on it: UK_Open: I set to 8 GMT - Blue Line UK_Close: I set to 17:00 GMT - Red Line BeginDay: This is essentially 00 GMT - Dashed Gray Line US_Start: 13 GMT - Dotted Gray Line GMT_Adjust: This is your GMT offset ...

Loki, That's the very purpose of any EA. But, everyone has their own "babysitter" criteria. So, it's doubtful that someone will have the same criteria you have and would have made an EA for it. The best thing to do is to learn how to work with MQL4 ...

"Babysitter" EA?

OK. I guess I'm pretty ignorant with this stuff. But, I just did an NFA/CFTC check on FXQL. Their head guy - Robert Gray - seems to have been associated with some pretty shady operations in the past. He was with a MultiVest Options company that had ...

mclinvestments, Welcome to ForexFactory! I actually agree with you here about the CFG guys. I don't think I could trust them as far as I could throw them (see my thread called "Stop Hunting".) On the other hand, there seems to be a bit of an ...

I guess for me, a guy who has worked with some seriously cutting edge technology companies, a statement like this just doesn't sit well. I've seen too many "impossible" things done in technology to treat this with any seriousness. It will be ...

These guys sound familiar. Aren't these the guys that supposedly run the hidden dealing deask for IBFX?

Hi Learningboy, Could you provide some evidence of what you experienced? Perhaps some screenshots or MT4 logs showing the kind of delays you experienced. Honestly, I think there are a couple of issues at play. First, you're comparing 2 different ...

BK, I tried to go this route with them as well. The commission charge, if I remember, equates to about $10 per lot, RT. For a mini, it's $3 per mini lot. The difference eliminates the possibility of using a mini lot and getting the higher leverage ...

I don't think Scott's talking exclusively about the CoesFX level 2 orders. He might also be referring to the option defense news coming from Thomson Financial. I'll follow Scott's cue and say that's all I know

Naked Chart Trading

I'm a bit of a DIY person. I could benefit from a good trading accountant, but, I did things on my own last year and read up on a bunch of stuff. The only advice I'll give is to learn how to keep track of every trade you make. I found, as I reported ...

I personally use stops, but, I also think this is a fairly fruitless conversation only because what works for some works for others. I know a couple of traders that do not use stop losses and do quite well. It all boils down to the system you have ...

No Stop Losses!!!

I'm not sure the Gold quote can be traded.

I asked Joe about that and he told me they would be ending that arrangement with SBFX since it undercuts their own business. I'll ask him again

I created an indicator for myself that places vertical lines on the UK open, US Open, UK close and GMT 00. That's how I get along with it.

Yes you can. There's a thread in here called "MetaTrader Server Files". Look for that and it explains how. I've attached the server files here.

mine updated OK. But, I don't know whether mine is the SpotTrader one, or just the MT4 from MetaQuotes. I think it's the latter and I'm just using the CoesFX server files.
