Rithmic 01 Broker Plug-in

no edit summary
Rithmic 01 Broker Plug-in should be selected and set '''only''' if you have '''Rithmic Live account'''. In case you have Rithmic Paper Trading account, it is necessary to set up '''[[Rithmic 01 Broker Plug-in|Rithmic 01 Broker Plug-in]]'''.
 
If MultiCharts sends a stop order with the price equal to current market price or better (guaranteed to be executed) it will be rejected by the broker. Therefore, MultiCharts converts such stop orders into market orders.
Rithmic does not support Native One-Cancels-Others group. In this case MultiCharts emulates OCO group on its end. Simulated OCO-group means that all OCO orders are sent to the broker, price is monitored by MultiCharts and once one of the orders is filled, other orders from this OCO group are cancelled by MultiCharts. When one of the OCO orders is filled, MultiCharts sends a command to cancel the second OCO order to broker. Note that the second order may also be filled if price reaches its level before the cancellation is processed by the broker (see [[Trading Risks#OCO-Orders Risk|OCO-Orders Risk]]).
