Oanda is disappointing. I already had doubts about staying with them because of a small choice of products and incredibly sluggish web platform. As the connection issue hasn't been solved I am going to move to another broker. Probably Saxo.

I haven't used MultiCharts for couple of months. Previously I had Oanda set up for both data feed and automated trading. Today when I try to connect to Oanda the login window pops up, and the Oanda symbol keeps rotating on the screen, but it doesn't go any further. Have I missed something in two mon...

I am automatically trading Forex CFDs with Oanda. Lately I had several unfilled orders, which turned a potentially profitable trade into a loss. I am running a mirror workspace to monitor the strategy (not actively trading), and the strategy there registered the signal, so the issue is most likely d...

Thanks very much for the reply and the code. This is perfect. Thanks again.

Thanks for the reply.

My coding skills are not amazing, and I am stuck at what should probably be a simple task. I am designing an intraday strategy (15 minute bars) and am trying to code the exit on the first profitably open of the week. In other words, on the first bar on Monday at 8:00 if profit position is > 0 then e...

Oanda used to have a mini bitcoin CFD, but they cancelled it, and not the only option to trade a small size is to trade a normal contract in fractions - o.1 or 0.01 of a normal CFD. MultiCharts doesn't seem to be able to do this in automated trading. Is there a way to work around it?

It's actually a good point, I missed it in the earlier posts. The thing is, the system in question does work on couple instruments on broker's data and falls apart in others. So I have to compare the feeds anyway, to see exactly how different they are, in good and bad instances. Thanks for the comme...

Is it possible to chart instruments from different brokers on the same chart? I want to compare how different the feed for the same symbol is from different brokers. I want to chart the same instrument from TS (main data) and Oanda (data2). Is this possible? This way would make the data comparison e...

Not exactly the same issue, but I had quite a rude awakening myself. Tested the forex strategy in TS on TS data, and it was producing good results. Transferred it to the MC with the data from Oanda and it fell apart. I have to compare Oanda and TS data, both live and historical, and see if this is b...

Thanks for the replies. It looks like the best option for me is to set up a separate account for each strategy and keep track of the positions on the broker's website.

I have several automated strategies running with Oanda. For some reason my position data on the MultiCharts platform is different from real life. Not sure how it got there, but it is different from what I have on Oanda website. Is there any way to reconcile the positions between the software and the...

Ok. Figured it out. Microsoft.NET framework had to be installed separately, through the server manager. MC installer ran without problems after that.

I am trying to install MC on the dedicated server. OS is Windows Server 2012 R2. WHen I run the installer I get the message "Error downloading..." - the screenshot is attached. I am guessing it is related to the Mircosoft.NET Framework 3.5. I tried to find the answer on the net, but to no avail. Wha...

Any VPS provider recommendations?

Tammy, your link is not working. Can you check and resend?

Hi, everyone. I am looking for VPS recommendations. The plan is to install MC and run automated trading. The speed is not essential, as I will be mostly trading 15 minute bars or higher, and reliability is the main factor. Available services vary greatly in price and specs. I understand for MC I nee...
