Is there a way I can view past webinars? Do you have any instructional and tutorial videos on the MBT Navigator?

Thanks in advance

Same deal here now Steve. Completely frozen.

I had a few problems with Nav last week too with TTO's not triggering and had to call up the deal desk to close out a trade manually. I'm sure it's just a few kinks that need ironing out, but it's a bitch when it happens in early Euro before customer service is open.

I just got off the phone with them. They said they are having feed problems from one provider and are working on it. No time frame for having it fixed.

My MT4 demo charts are down and have been down for a couple of days. Anyone else on the charts? I know they work on them, but wondering if it's my connection.

Anyone still having price feed issues?? My Navigator freezes for several seconds no prices update then it jumps like 10-15 pips. All of my other Broker data feeds on my trade station are working okay.

I check in with the Demo every few days. always something wrong. Yesterday and today I noticed it calculates profit/loss incorrectly for GBP/Yen trades.

They sure are having a lot of issues

Does anyone here trade forex on Ninja Trader through MB Trading. I have been using the DEMO but the charts have no historical data and the P&Ls are not calculated right.

Goldsurfer-

Can you be a little more specific? I just ran a test trade in Demo on the GBPJPY and it all calculates correctly. Can you clarify if you mean Navigator or MetaTrader Demo and also exactly what you think is off?

Same here. Was connected, quotes stopped cold. Closed and reopened platform. 'No connection.'
Are they experimenting with bucket-shop behavior that works around requotes etc.? Certainly is discouraging. I used this platform less than four hours and already get a fatal flaw.

I've had very few problems and I've been with MB for over almost 2 years. I think this is the second time there was an issue and both times it was fixed pretty quickly, at least in my opinion. I was back up in about 30 minutes, but not sure how long it was down before I logged on.

Hello,

Yes i use Ninja Trader with MB, and you are correct they do not have historical data. First you need to connect to GAIN via Ninja Trader and let it update your historical Data, then you disconnect GAIN and connect to MB.

I don't use NT for trading so i don't know about the P&L. However I had MB setup an additional username for me (same account). One i use for Ninja Trader and one i use for Navigator.

Hope that helps,
Brent

Thanks Brent,

I love the Ninja Trader DOM and the way u can enter trades on the chart. I'm still waiting for my check to clear for the live account to go active. So I will keep playing around.

I loaded Gain and MB and the charts did update with historical data but once you disconnect from gain in order to have MB as the order executor u lose some valuable tick data in the time it takes to disconnect from gain and update the charts.

TP.

I'm sure you're right. It may be more a MetaTrader issue or somehow on my side. I glanced at another MT4 platform's data, and the MBT MT4 platform failed to record ticks for about how long you said at 5:30 and 11:30 of the downloaded time zone. It's just difficult to do the method I employ with this happening.

Do you know of a way to correct this issue, such as redownload historical data to fill in the blanks? I'll have to check around to continue using the platform.

I know they are still testing MT4 and they said they take it down from time to time. It was up pretty consistently until recently when mine went down for days. But again, they said they're still testing. I suppose that when they go live, the demo will be totally stable and accurate, but you have to ask Justin. Until then I doubt you can redownload the data.

But hey, I've been wrong before.
