I just opened a demo account with MB (in preparation of opening a live account) and can't get a chart to load in Desktop Pro. Any ideas why this would be? It shouldn't be a difficult thing to do, so its really starting to frustrate me. I tried the online chat customer service but never received a reply. Any knowledge anyone has is greatly appreciated.

BTW, I am with you kokopelli, I was getting pissed because I couldn't find this thread under Broker Discussion.

Attn: Justin

I opened a demo account a couple of weeks ago and have yet to be able to load a chart in Desktop Pro. I tried to utilize the live chat support, but never received an answer. Can you help me out? I was planning on opening a live account soon, but this isn't very encouraging.

Why is this forum no longer under Broker Discussion? Forex Factory is doing a great disservice to its readers by moving this thread.

Have you tried file/new/chart yet? This platform is very impractical, clumsy and not necessary for trading compared to other platforms. If you want to learn it it does have options other platforms don't. The MT4 runs very well as they have stripped lots of annoying stuff from it.

Has to do with $$. Notice under Brokers, not even listed. Others pay, MBT doesn't.

Hi Guys -

Even though we have been moved to the commercial forum, because we no longer are paying advertisers, ForexFactory still allows me to support you here. Please let me know if you have any questions that need a response.

Only part of Oanda I miss is the quick usually within hours posting of withdrawals/deposits. Where MBT can take up to 3 days unless it's a wire, and the forms needed for some withdrawals make these actions crawl. I understand the Credit Card deal but still it's like a slug moving uphill.....

Understood. To clarify, paying advertisers get to be directly in the brokers forum. But non-paying brokers are placed in the commercial forum. Is this correct? It would be nice if you could respond to these allegations recently reported in ForexMagnates.

Looks like a reporting error, although in light of recent PFG scandals and such, be careful with maintaining proper regulatory standards.

1. That's correct.

2. I hope I can quote Justin on this one as I asked the very same question, response:

It was a technicality really. Basically, we had enough funds to qualify under the regulations, but they weren't necessarily held in the appropriate type of account that qualifies under the CFTC language. We worked with the CFTC to correct the deficiency and they clearly state that in their release.
I checked their capital via CFTC and they have close to $3 million in excess, up from $1.8 since Feb

Fuck.


Why was there a downtime? MT4, MBT Pro and your sites, everything was down.


Don't you have backups? Cloudflare is a piece of shit

I don't see any downtime, my connection to the quote server had no interruptions.

I'm not insane; my mother had me tested.

Justin,


Would adding spot Gold and Silver into the FX platform be an option? I don't know if you've gotten similar requests before but I would certainly trade them!
