MT4 Waiting for update?

Hi all.

When I opened my MT4 today I saw that some currency pairs I watch are not displayed, MT4 is "waiting for update".

Also, closing i.e. EURUSD and reopen it doesn't work because there is no EURUSD currency pair I can chose! It's just not available anymore.
I only have 11 pairs left. These 11 pairs are displayed correctly. The other ones have the "waiting for update" issue and are not longer available in MT4.

I use fxpro's MT4-demo.


Any clues?

The markets are closed. Brokers aren't sending tick updates.

Hm ok, but normally I can watch my charts during the weekend, although they are not updated of course.

If you're at FxPro Demo, same problem here
What I can see is that 10+ pairs disappeared from the symbollist
Should be a problem with their server

Reporting same problem with FxPro Demo account... all the majors have disappeared.

Okay, then good I'm not alone with this problem. Re-install doesn't work, for anyone who wants to try this.

But after the re-install I now have Intel, Hewlett-Packard, IBM, Microsoft, ATT and Exxon Mobil...

The issue is often caused by the symbol of the chart being different from the symbol on the Market Watch.

First right-click on the currency pairs in the market Watch and then select "Show all" to make all the pairs visible.

After this drag and drop a pair from the Market Watch onto the chart. This should get it updating again.

Hi,

Still have this problem.

Anyone out there who can help/have suggestion?

Hello All,

I encountered the same problem after changing from my demo account to my live account by selecting File / Login to Trade Account.

I finally realised that my demo account added a suffix to the pair name in the chart tab, so to resolve the problem, I deleted the demo chart and reopened the pair in a new chart and all was OK.

Cheers
