Stanislaus: Do you use Trading Station or MT4 over BT bridge? I have not reached the point of cashing profits, hopefully it will happen soon. :)

Great idea! Thanks Huwee.

By timestamp I mean add your date and time GMT each time you provide update in the original signal message. Eg. -- update -- July 22, 10:00 GMT (or your time zone) I am afraid that this cannot be done automatically (though to some extent it is supplied by editing time -- yet it shows...

I think it would be quite helpful if you time stamped your updates.

Hi Jason, Indeed the initial problem with the "strange" position has been sorted out. The off quote problem happened mostly when I tried to open a postion, but I guess it might have occured when closing some of the EAs trades too. I had a one more incident: a trade was opened by EA...

MT4 and FXCM synchronization charlyher: I had quite similar situation on Thursday last week. In MT4 I noticed a negative account sync amount that was several times higher than usual. I checked the situation and it seemed that several of my positions were closed 40 pips or more away from the...

Stuck with off quotes I am waiting till my rogue position that shows in MT4 platform finally gets fixed. Jason contacted me and I hope everything is on a good way, though one can only imagine the post spike backlog size if it takes several days to sort this out. I just received an e-mail...

Ernst & Jason, Thank you for your concern. As a matter of fact the within a second trade was not example of how FXCM works, it was a part of log of the other broker. Although the trade seems unbelievably fast I do not really mind it because it meant profit. What bothers me more is the fact...

My FXCM office sat pic must have been done on Sunday, because there were hardly any cars on the lots :-) Anyway, it's a good idea to check the broker's office address this way. I will check one of my brokers in a moment. Thanks for the hint.

I guess I will need to apologize to FXDD for having wanted to abandon them ;) They move their European clients to FXDD Malta, so I guess I will follow. They are not so attractive spreadwise as FXCM, but just see this: 2010.03.02 00:25:00 '1xxxx': order #2087422088 sell 2.36 EURUSD at 1.3570...

I guess if I traded manually Trading Station would be the solution. However, I use EAs extensively (besides occasional manual trades) so I need MT4. But it seems that the Boston Technology bridge solution makes the system hardly acceptable for scalping and sometimes gives problems even with...

It's standard account with MT4 and BT...

Execution time I use FXDD, FXCM and Alpari UK and of these three FXCM shows slowest and most surprising execution time. Recently I really started to wonder if they really operate ECN way, look at this: 2010.03.01 14:12:12 '100xxxx': modification of order #3154984 buy 0.25 EURCHF at 1.46362...

Update on FXCM stability Here is FXCM message that I got recently. Well, years go by and FXCM stability is still not perfect. FXCM had to roll back a -67000 EUR withdrawal on my account that was caused by a major spike in several of the currency pairs that they offer. This meant stopping...
