Oanda New Security Layer causes continuous MC Disconnects

Postby rsaraga » 01 Feb 2020

On Sunday, January 26, 2020, Oanda added a new security layer to their connection phase.
It appears that about every 10 to 20 minutes it has a process that effectively disconnects Multicharts from Oanda.
I use 10 Xeon Servers (10 Lifetime MC Licenses), trading pure automation for years.
Multicharts is truly a Ferrari for automation trading and Oanda is the best USA Forex broker available.
Oanda, a worldwide broker, offers micro orders and API Level Access.

I spoke to Oanda and they basically pushed the problem onto Multicharts.
I am eager to come back online, but wanted to share that it isn't demo feeds vs Live feeds.
It appears to me that it is an additional security checkup that we, Multicharts' users, fail.

I appreciate and love both companies and look forward to automation trading again.

Hello, rsaraga!

Since last week we are in contact with OANDA on this matter. Should there be any updates, we’ll let you know.

Please know that I am available for any testing or assistance.
I love both the automation platform of MultiCharts and having Oanda as a broker.
My day job is a Programmer and would honored to help.
