Re: What is going on with the license server?
Same thing happened to me. Had to scramble to get out of all my positions manually and update to the newest version in the middle of a trading day. Now some of my signals that had 1000+ trades previously can't generate a single trade. Not impressed with MC. Is there any way to roll back to the previ...

Re: Market if Touched order
You could do so with market orders coupled with Intra-bar order generation, like this untested snippet: [IntraBarOrderGeneration = true]; Variables: mitTriggerPrice(100); if (Close >= mitTriggerPrice) then Buy 1 contract next bar at market; This does have a few disadvantages though, including: * Th...

Market if Touched order
I'm currently using Limit Orders as entry for my strategy. I've found out that backtesting tends to be a bit inaccurate (limit orders can still be partially filled at highs/lows in real time trading whereas backtested results shows no trades). It would be best if there's a Market if Touched Order (M...

Re: Getting filled higher than the high of bar - LMAX [SOLVED]
Hi Henry,
I did what you wrote and it works after I clear the cache and deleted the data in the quote manager. I'll monitor for a while and see if I still get weird fills. Thanks a lot for the help!

Getting filled higher than the high of bar - LMAX [SOLVED]
I have this issue of getting stopped out higher than the high of the bar. I've contacted LMAX side and they told me that the fill did happen, just that the chart didn't capture it. It would appear that the charts were plotted using the BID prices, instead of the traded price I would expect. From LMA...

Re: Working Orders margins for LMAX [SOLVED]
I did a quick check with no positions on. Working order buy 1 @ 1.62 Working order sell 1 @1.63 Margin was only 320~. Apparently the sell order was the greater value of the 2. Next I tried Working order sell 1 @ 1.64 Working order sell 1 @ 1.63 Margin was 2x. I haven't tried with position on and the...

Re: Problem with IB fx execution [SOLVED]
Hi Henry,
It's working fine now. Thanks so much.
Just a quick question. Will this affect the TS inputs for strategy calculation or just the output only?

Problem with IB fx execution [SOLVED]
Hi all, I'm currently using TS data for fx strategy calculation and trying to get IB for trade execution. However, I keep getting "The price does not conform to the minimum variation for this contract" even though I'm pretty sure I edit all the necessary input for the quote manager. I suspect since ...

Re: Working Orders margins for LMAX [SOLVED]
Thanks for the reply. So this particular situation only affects LMAX? Or all other fx brokers are affected as well? The part where I have to have 3* margin for 1 open position. I'm trying to select some fx brokers. Heard LMAX was good so decided to demo with them. First day and I'm having this issue.

Working Orders margins for LMAX [SOLVED]
Need some help here thanks guys. I have a trade placed. MC then sends contingency orders (stop loss and profit target) after the position is opened. However LMAX system seems to treat the 2 working orders (SL PT) as individual open orders and hence utilizes 2 sets of margins. So for 1 open position ...

System trades when there is no signal from indicator
Hi all, I've been having this issue whereby the system trades when there are no signals from the indicator. I've read that most of the issue is not trading when there's a signal, but my situation is the complete opposite. At first I thought it was the Max Bar settings since I've left it default at 5...
