Metaquotes Will No Longer Sell its MT4 Trading Platform

whatever dukas... when I will smoke marijuana and come to dukaspace I will understand u.

sorry, but the problem with you is: you have a basic understanding of some structures, but dont see the basic point of trading.
when you want place a limit order on a special point and by luck the spread is between ask and bid, then order is set between the spread, so what?? so anything you say is total useless for the topic of limitorder and you cant see it. you even asked why i set a limit order there?, its so normal to set a order when you want go in the market to this price, very simple point, nothing someone has to ask.

this easy basic understanding of trading is something you really have to learn, or all what i tell you , you cant understand and always respond with useless ecn parts.

by the way: i trade only with prime brokerage, so all what you say about ecn and so on is extrem basic parts, and nothing connected to set a limit order. you need to learn to split between 2 different things.

you speak now many posts about you are not able to set a limit order between spread, many told you its possible, and you are unable to see it, after you see it after many many posts you now ask why someone set a limitorder? really think about this style. its not easy to help you so.

oh man, one example then i finish, you are at this extrem low level, i cant teach you all the time. some basics you really need to read in other places or books.

ask 2.00
bid 1.00
i set a buy limit order at 1.6

you say it will be executed at ask 2.0 with my 1,6 limit order?
think again about or really read some basics about order styles, trading and so on....
a limit order buy at 1,6 will be filled at 1,6 or lower. the ask 2.0 at the moment will not fill this order. you need someone coming in with a market order or with sell limit 1,6 or lower to get you filled......because this will change your ask 2.00.

but you should really avoid trading, until you know what is what order type. very dangerous for you at this moment.

what level ?

if the ask is 2 and the bid is 0 you can't place it at 1 "by luck"... what does it mean ?


p.s. I'm really out of this discussion, if your mission is to drive everyone nuts.. good luck with that!

learn the basics, really, it will help you.
at the moment you are really out of the conversation since near 5-10 posts, because you always write wrong things and i correct you and you write wrong again and with content thats not connected to your understanding problem.

accept it, you can set limit order between the spread, finished, whatever you want say about it is not correct. you simple have basic understanding problems, but looks you are extrem new and so have to learn this first.

lets finish it, i dont want to correct you all the time, looks stupid with time, when you recall the mistake again and again.

so point is: of course you can set limit order between the spread (because you are extrem unexperienced or misleaded by what ever fact you dont know it, i accept this).

there is maybe only one additionall possibility: your broker is so extrem bad, that you really have this problem and you dont know it better. but then again, read the basics. putting a limit order buy to 1,00 is without any problem when the ask price is at 2,00. if the bid price is then 1,9,1,5 or by luck 1,0 (or whatever price) is totral unimportant for this limitorder. in reality its even possible to set limit orders higher then the ask price, some brokers /trading stations call it then a market order with slippage control. or you can use stoplimitorder, so after your stop price triggers the limit order is going into the market, no matter where the price is and triiggers immideatly or waits for the limit price at least.

maybe its most easy for you when you simple test it! use demo account and open in big spread currencies (or any other when you are fast) a limit order between the ask and bid price. use even your mentioned fxcm account. it will be easy after you test it for your own and you dont need to write post after post, that it dont work!

and the best hint for you: never open any live account and put in much money, when you have this problems with such very easy basics in trading. always learn the basics first, or at least after you was corrected very often test it for your own or read about it. be carefull with trading in your actual experience level is all i can say. in this case a demo account is good until you learn what orders are possible, what is ask and bid price and how they are correlated to the different order types, how ask and bid is calculated...... in all this point you had extrem problems in last postings and you had very wrong assumption about it.

u placed it away from the spread not inside. learn very basic English b4 posting on an English forum

IGNORED

when you can buy at 2 and sell at 1 and place your order at 1,5 you are away from the spread, not inside?

maybe your problem is, you are even more unexperienced then i thought. please can you tell me whats spread for you? maybe you think this is not the area between best buy and sell prices and this will be your problem?

at least you know, trading is at this moment nothing for you and you have big big learning walk to do, to have your first trading account in future. but better someone tells you the truth and you dont run in your complete destroying your capital with this low knowledge level.

you main priority is now:
- learn basics
- learn to remember always: know what you speak about
- learn how to learn from others, when all tell you , you are wrong, maybe you should start to think about it and start learning the basics , and not speak about topics you did not learned already. and spread is really a very basic thing.
