It's frustrating for me to work this out too. Is there anything in the logs at all?

Ok lets all stay calm, does "error 126" mean anything to you?

Yes it does. It means "xxx" can't be loaded. In this case it's the One Click DLL. Is it in the experts/libraries folder?
If not, maybe try reinstalling the plugin to see if that puts it in the right place.

Good news! As with all things PC, one little thing, one button, one setting can throw everything else into chaos

Also, thank you for pointing it out. We can use this as another thing to ask if another client has the same problem.

Avira anti virus blocked some parts of the program.

Congratulations on the release of this tool. I am very happy with it and ready to fund my live account with you.

Improvements in the future could include

1. drag and drop order lines to trade directly off the charts

2. automatic %risk based position sizing.

3. pip value and margin requirement display prior to ordering

The only remaining issue I have with mt4 is that the historical charts only display the bid price. With a variable spread , there is no way of determining what the ask price was at any given time in the past. The ability to swap between bid and ask price charts or to overlay the ask price on the bid price chart would be great to accurately determine ask highs and lows.

You are a very fair broker and unique in many aspects. Consider offering other platforms such as IT finance or Ninja Trader along side MT4. How about developing your own? MT4 just isnt as great as it is cracked up to be

Any chance you may be adding Oil and /or USDX to your list? Could be worth having USDX charts even if it's not available to trade!
Good Trading

Thank you for your suggestions. They will be passed to our developers.

We have that.

If you right click the Market Watch and "Show All", you will see additional charts you can open with ASK prices and also Average charts.

We do offer the ability to connect to other software via an API however you would need to develop the bridge yourself. The connection is there though and with it, you can trade on our ECN without MT4.

As for our own platform, just watch this space. When it's ready, I will announce it with due fanfare

We have no immediate plans to add futures (or CFDs). We want to concentrate on our FX ECN for now.

Let's forgot about the case when you are deleting the profitable trades and blaming your secret LP instead.

How is about this statement which is yours: http://www.forexpeacearmy.com/forex-...html#post90915

You are just saying all LP are MM and if your business is based on that, than is somebody who still believe you aren't MM even on the ECN accounts?!

With respect, it's not my place to discuss cases involving another company. Please limit your discussion in this thread to FXOpen AU Pty Ltd.

All LPs by nature are MM. Is there any way they could be something else?

How would open au proceed if his LP would feed with miss price?
Would delete the trader trades for that period ?

We have controls in place to filter out false prices or prices injected with zero liquidity so it is rare for it to happen.

If it did happen, we would naturally act in the best interests of our client.

Wow! well done offering ask and average price charts. That is very good for me.

I am having a bit of trouble with freezing of the platform. I have found that multiple charts and indicators freeze or slow mt4. I work around this using separate pc's for dealing and charting. Any other suggestions?

Also I cant seem to access the account statement reports, it just comes up as "page not found" Its just the demo version but Im keen to iron out all bugs before going live

Do you offer a mac mt4 by any chance?

Do you offer commission discounts based on volume traded?

Great work on your services thus far.

- Reduce the Max Bars in Chart (Options > Charts) to under 5000. Really under 2000 if possible.
- on the market watch, right-click and select "hide all" to hide all pairs you are not currently charting.

What other programs are running?

Hi, I read that you copy from fxopen nz, which is odd but ok (different regulation). Your website though has some mistakes (double writing of some lines etc) which I can not find with fxopen, this doesn't look professional. Is there going to be an fxopenaus website with own terms and conditions and is this site just temporarily?

Do you offer vps?

Thanks ybfjax I will reduce max bars.

I only trade eur/usd and only have the chart windows and the terminal open. None of the tool bars or windows are open and I have no other programs running.

I have two custom indicators which are macd colored and a bollinger bandwidth that Hanover made colored also. Then just bollinger bands and adx.

I have 2.8ghz and 4 gig of ram running windows 7. It runs ok with a single chart if I delete the macd but anything more than that and it pauses or freezes completely

Hi pbb

I am unaware of any major errors in our website. We are spending more time on a complete rewrite and new website code at the moment to be released soon. I'm sure everyone will like the new, easier to use design when it is live. I would appreciate though if you could point out where you saw the errors on our existing site so I can have them fixed for the time being.

We don't offer a VPS but our support staff can suggest VPS services that will give you the lowest ping to our servers if it suits your needs.

Your PC should be able to run multiple MT4 instances let alone multiple charts on them.

My suggestion is to start with clean charts, then add your custom indicators one by one to see which one is using too many resources. Some custom code or EAs can make the platform unstable. If that doesn't help, make a complete reinstall of MT4 including deleting the program folder after running uninstall to start with a nice, clean platform.

A malware and virus scan of your whole PC wouldn't hurt either.
