[IB] FX algo trading setting

Postby Kennethgor » 23 Feb 2020

I am using Interactive Brokers and I would like to try FX algo trading with Multicharts.

I have the following questions:

1. What type of product should I choose in QuoteManager? Should I choose CFD if I want a leverage?
2. How the commission rule should be set? Both CFD and Cash.

Thank you in advance!

Hello Kennethgor,

1. For IB FX symbols can be found in the Cash category.
2. We cannot tell you how to set your commission rules (you should ask you broker about the commissions on your account), but you can configure them for autotrading in Format -> Strategy Properties -> Properties tab -> Commission Rule.
