Execution FXCM <> MC.NET <> MT4

Postby fx1 » 07 Jul 2013

Hi MC community

i have prepared a small demonstration video to explain the problem i currently have. I have opened a FXCM account and intend to work with MC.NEt to write my automated strategies.

Please check this video. Is this a bug or do i oversee something?

regards

Hello fx1,

You need to disable hedging for your FXCM account in order to use it with MultiCharts.

Henry,

this was manual execution from chart. I have tested automatic EA execution in the meantime and it has worked well. Do i still need to switch off hedging if i want to trade automatically? Is that a known issue? Can this issue cause some trouble while trading automatically from EA?

Hello Fx1,

MC trading does not support hedging. So if your FXCM account has hedging enabled you have to turn it off.
