Hello DRCM.
In order to use FXCM as broker you need to install FxOrder2go from this link first:

Re: FXCM on MultiCharts7
Ok Henry, Thanks. All works now. Following question would be " how to set MC to get market data straight from FXCM?". There is no data source like FXCM to choose on MC. Now I use IQFeeD symbols for forex like eurusd.fxcm, gbpusd.fxcm , but I`d like to get direct feed from FXCM. And what about DOM using with FXCM. I can`t get it working.
Thanks
Thanks

Re: FXCM on MultiCharts7
Ok. Thanks for your help. I gonna use IQFeeD FXCM Forex Data for now. If I find any problems with current data feed I let you know. Btw, where can I find all info and prices about MultiCharts Forex Data?
Thanks
P.S. Is there any plans to implement DOM for FXCM in the nearest future?

Re: FXCM on MultiCharts7
Hello,
Exit strategies on chart trading with FXCM broker don`t work, I`m not able to place them. I tryed profit target, stop loss and bracket strategies. I can place order STP, LMT , but only BUY. it doesn`t let to choose between buy and sell orders. Why? Does chart trading supported at all or I do something wrong here?
Thanks

Re: FXCM on MultiCharts7
Exit strategy can be applied to an open position or entry order.
The only order type FXCM broker does not support is Stopl Limit order.
Other exit strategies should be applied properly.
Please notice that when you apply the master strategy-you cannot apply any other exit strategies.
If you still have diffculties with applying exit strategies-please come to our live chat Monday-Friday 6:30 am - 2 pm EST.
We will do our best to help you.

Hello,
I`ll give an example here. I place a Limit Order to Sell EURUSD at 1.3605, it`s ok it shows on my chart. Then I apply exit strategy Profit Target @ 1.3590 and it is appears on my chart transparent, also, when Limit Order done Profit Traget disappears from my chart and no exits records on FXCM platform except that main Order. Same problem with Bracket, Stop Loss. After applying them it shows transparent on chart and disappear after main order execution and no exits shown on FXCM platform.

Re: FXCM on MultiCharts7
You can check it in the FXCM trading station.
In the accounts window please have a look at the Type column.
Please let me know what account type do you have.

Re: FXCM on MultiCharts7
Solution:
File->Broker profiles->Manage broker profiles->FXCM->Edit.
Default account line should remain empty in case you have 1 account.
In case you have multiple accounts under one login and you need to set the default one - the correct account number should be input.

Re: FXCM on MultiCharts7
If my account type is "Type F" then can I use MC7 to use the FXCM data and trade through MC rather than FXCM TS II?
Thanks,
B

Re: FXCM on MultiCharts7
Hi,
I think account Type F is hedging enabled, I`ve been told by MC team that hedging is not supported yet on MC7 and had to change to Type N. You can disable it going into your account settings online straight from FXCM TS II. But if you want to use FXCM data you`ve got to go for MultiCharts Forex Data Feed https://www.multicharts.com/forex-data/ or you can get MCFX, MCFX Pro https://www.multicharts.com/forex-tradi ... /purchase/ . But there is another way to use MC7 with FXCM standard or micro account, I use IQFeeD FXCM data, do symbol mapping and it works ok.

Re: FXCM on MultiCharts7
Hello Bretter.
You can use FXCM Type F account in MultiCharts 7.1 beta 1 and higher.
Please keep in mind that you need to have hedging disabled for your account.

Re: FXCM on MultiCharts7
Thanks Henry and DRCM! I will try it with beta1. And I have a U.S. account, so I assume that hedging is disabled by default because of the new laws here in the states. I will check with FXCM to make sure.
Thanks,
