pmat

Thanks to both of you for your answer.

The issue is solved. I was already logged on with another software, and the connection is not set up to accept 2 simultaneous connections.

take care !

Hello,

i'm trying to setup a connection with Rithmic, but there is a new field ("Trade route") that has to be filled and I do not know what to put in there. The lookup button did not return anything.

Please see attached screenshot.

Many thanks in advance.

pmat

thanks MAtricks !

Will give it a try next time I use MC to trade.

I would expect the same shortcut on DOM though (I do not use charts to trade).

pmat

Hello, this is funny because today I was looking for the trading report for manual trading. So I guess it is not available. Why not re use what MC provides for backtesting ? Anyway, here is what I would like to see added : - Time in trade - Maximum favorable excursion - Maximum adverse excussion - B...

thank you all for you help, problem solved. FYI, I used a backup of the workspace, but it was the same. The thing is that I was using XLF and XTN (DTN IQFeed symbol) on both of the broken charts. It looks like during the version update, these symbols were removed from the quote manager. I just added...

Hello,

I upgraded to 8.8 beta 2 and some charts are broker :

please note that the three series of charts use the same indicators, only symbols differ.

many thanks for your help

pmat

I will do so.

Thanks for your support.

Not really :

no new data since I created the chart from the scanner window.

See attached screenshot.

Thanks again for your help.

Hello Andrew,

thank you for your answer.

Please find enclosed a screenshot of the IQ Feed diagnostic tool.

Looks to ma that I've got access to the realtime data.

Best regards;

pmat

Hello TJ,

that's strange, maybe the preview removed it.

Thanks for warning me.

pmat

please see attached screenshot :
I cannot figure out why I cannot have data displayed for +GC# and +SI#.

I can draw charts without any problem.

My feed is DTN.

Many thanks in advance.

Hello Henry,

thank you for your answer.

I believe it could be useful to mention that in the Wiki, either about TT feed or/and bracket orders.

Is TT the only feed with this limitation ?

What other feed would you recommend : CQG ?

Best regards.

pmat

MC support, any help ?

pmat

Another strange behaviour : sold 1 contract @15267 with bracket order (SL -20, TP +40), the SL order was sent @15298 immediately executed @15268, TP sent for 15200 ??? and cancelled after SL execution. I've been using SC for almost a year and never had such a mess. This was my first day back with MC...

pmat

Hi Mike,

yes both (SL & TP) orders are sent to the broker at the same time.

I'm surprised to have such an issue as I use the built-in Exit Strategy (the first one, starting from the left).

pmat

Thanks Mike,

I will look into this direction.

What is strange is taht I had no trouble with the other side of the OCO order (take profit).

Hello, I'm having the following error when I enter an order through the DOM and got filled : Instrument: YMU3; Order: Buy StopLimit 1; Status: Rejected; Reason: From Gateway: Stop price maxi-mini must be greater than or equal to trigger price Orders were short orders, with this auto exit strategy (s...

Hello Henry,

thanks for the tip. Works like a charm !

pmat

Hello TJ,

thank you for your answer.

With your settings, here is what I've got on my DOM :

I do not have more than 1 depth of market, which is not good enough.

Am I missing something ?

pmat

Hello, I've been trading with SC for some month now, and I'm considering rdverting back to MC. My problem is that, using the same TT feed, I'm not able to get the same price display is MC as in SC, whic is very annoying. Please see the following pictures : 3 - what I've got in SC and would like to a...

Thx sptrader !

Hello,

I installed MC 7.2 beta and have big troubles with orders, so I would like to revert back to beta 1 but I cannot as installer finds a newer version. Is there anyway to do ti without installing everything ?

Many thanks in advance,

Pascal

pmat

Dear all,

beware if you plan to trade live with a TT feed and this version of MC.

At several occasions today I had illegitimate trades initiated through DOM, whose position was erroneous.

Support is investigating, but I feel better to pass the word out there.

Take care.

Pascal

pmat

Any update on this topic ?

Many thanks in advance,

Pascal

pmat

Hello Henry,

many thanks for your answer.

Best regards.

One last question n this topic please :

is TT API provided by TT or developped by MC ?

If it is the latest, it would be great to improve it...

Is there the same problem with the Kinetic feed ?

Many thanks in advance,

Pascal

pmat

Hello Henry,

thanks for the answer.

So no bug here, but a very unconvenient limitation from TT API...

Have a nice evening,

Pascal

Hello, since yesterday I started trading through a broker using Trading Technology. Today I placed 2 orders. The problem is that the PnL and the entry price displayed in DOM and on chart are totally wrong (see attached sreenshot), whereas the chart trading arrow is correct. (in the real trade exempl...

pmat

I'm very fed-up, I cannot trade. As soon as I open the DOM (well, not sur 100% this is the reason), I get this message : <<EXCEPTION>> Address: 0x73EBCCD5 ( 1944833237 ) Code: 0xC000000D ( -1073741811 ) Continuable: 0x00000000 ( 0 ) Description: Un paramètre non valide a été passé à un service ou un...

Hello, I managed to get proper Continuous Future for the DAX symbol. I took note of the current limitation (no chart for resolution greater than daily). So my question to my fellow traders out there : how do you manage to do some chart analysis on a weekly or monthly resolution ? 1 - you don't 2 - y...

Hello Josh,

thanks for the input.

Best regards.

Hello Stan,

unfortunately I restarted MC since this pb occured. Will do so next time (any tip where I can find the log files ?).

Have a good WE

Dear all, yesterday I had the following issue : I was scalping YM through the DOM window, in addition with a 1 minute chart. I placed an order on the DOM but it did not show up neither in the DOM window nor on the chart. So I did it again, same issue, and again. In the end my three orders where exec...

Hello Stan,

many thanks for this answer.

I will try as you sayed.

Hello again, I followed the step by step procedure given in this forum in order to create the DAX Custom Futures, but I've got 3 problems : 1 - if I create a new symbol in the dictionnary under esignal (as it is specified in the procedure), I cannot chose it when I create the custom future (as my da...

Hello Stan,

thanks for the answer, even if it is not a good news...

Hello, I've been triyng to plot DAX and YM custom Futures charts. I has no problem up to resolution 1 day, but I have this error message when I try to plot a weekly chart : "Custom Futures do not support resolutions higher than 1 day" Such a limitation would be a non-sens for a great trading platefo...
