How does the mt4 platform run as a user? The demo account will not save or reconnect and attempting to open any new chart shows an error the chart is not found or the path is incorrect.

Hi Ileuard

It's important you run MT4 as an administrator on your computer. The errors you described suggest that you might not be running MT4 as an administrator. Please follow the steps below in order to fix this:

1. Right click on the MT4 icon on your desktop and select "Properties".

2. Under the Compatibility tab check the box that says "Run as Administrator" and hit OK.

If that does not solve the problem, I encourage you to call our 24-hour live tech support at 1-888-50-FOREX, so we can troubleshoot this further for you.

I use FXCM, I have used others and in my opinion they are all just about the same, a few exceptions here and there, but to say the stop hunt no don't think so. They have been around for a long time have many clients, if they cheated they wouldn't be so big and get so many rewards and have me as a customer.

Hi Johninthai,

What currency pair are you looking at, and on which one of our trading platforms? I just checked several currency pairs on Trading Station and was able to look back over 10 years on the monthly charts.

hi Jason.

I was going to ask you about this problem.

XAU/USD Monthly only shows data since 2010 and Weekly since march 2009.

I found this thread @ dailyfx abut this issue.

We've temporarily had to reduce the historical data available on Trading Station in order to implement some upgrades to how the data are stored. We intend to restore these data as part of our next update to the platform in addition to providing even more historical data. I'll make another post here when the additional data are available on Trading Station.

I'm not a full-time trader, and I'm not tading huge lots thru my live FXCM acct, so maybe I'm too small of a fish for them to spear........they must be waiting for me to grow into a bigger fish first (LOL)

Hi gsbharaj,

FXCM offers both NDD forex execution and DD forex execution. We recommend NDD forex execution because we believe it provides the all-around best trading experience. For those traders who wish to start with a small account balance and focus solely on spread, we offer the dealing desk option. We list a comparison between the two options on our website http://www.fxcm.com/advantages/forex-execution/compare-execution-types/

Hi Michael,

Welcome to the thread. The forex market has $4 trillion daily turnover on average so the pond is quite large no matter what size fish you are.

One thing I found best about about FXCM is DailyFXPlus. You can get on the daily signals along with the mirror trader and make a killing. That's what I have learned. It took some learning for sure but, after that, it turns out better then what any other broker can offer, and I don't work for FXCM.
