Hello everybody!

We are a group of traders and coders who decided to create a platform to meet our own trading needs. Therefore, we are working on a trading platform for traders done and designed by traders.

Moreover, we would appreciate if you tell us which of existent features you like most of all. Below you can find list of features and video overview of the most important ones.

Hi,

I have some questions.

1) Where can I test your platform and is it free, and if not how much does it cost?
2) Is possible to trade any broker account on your platform?
3) If it is MQL4 compatible, can I use any compiled scripts and EAs for MT4?
4) Can I use templates from MT4?
5) Do you have one click trader EA for your platform that has option to place SL, TP and to use constant value of lot or percentage value based on account balance calculated on value of SL. For example $1000 account, EURUSD SL 10 pips, percentage risk 1%, so EA opens 0,1 lot.
6) Can you add option to copy trade from account to account based on percentage value of balance based on SL as in example above? For example no matter what size of position opens master account, slave account opens position calculated on percentage of balance and SL.
7) Is it possible to copy orders between different brokers?

Best regards!

The reason why MT4 is so popular is because it is so simple and intuitive to use. Please make MT4 'skin' so that traders would have an option to trade with their new 'MT4'

If it has an option to make it looks like how the archaic MT4 look this thing could be a hit.

Also the ability to manipulate spreads so that those that needs consistency in pricing in their trading system can choose to trade on a chart with 0 pips eventhough actual price is higher. All of mt4 traders rely on bid price.

Currently we have an opportunity to make charts of any periodicity. What concerns start time, we will check it with our coders, and even if the platform doesnt have such functionality we can implement that feature.

Hello Is it an open source project ?
It’s not open source project, actually it’s even better. We will implement any new feature by request. So you don’t even need to code anything, you are just to show the need and it will be implemented.

1) According to our plan if all the things evolve like it should be, you will be able to try demo by the end of October. As a client you won’t need to pay any monthly payments, we will make IB agreements with brokers to get lower commissions. You will pay the same standard commissions to your broker, and the difference between standard commission and our discounted commission will be your payment for the platform, so in other words broker will pay us for your using of the platform.
2) Our plan is to sign agreements with the most solid venues, but right now we have signed agreement with FXCM, so we will start with them.
3) You are able to use only mql4 files, not compiled ex4.
4) no, you are not able to do that, but you can easily customize your workplace to desirable view
5) yes, we support One Click Panel, but the final redesigned version will be available a little bit later. Our One Click Panel has almost all the described features, besides calculation of the lot size. If there is a big need in such functionality, and there are other traders who need it - we will implement that feature. You can also watch this video
6) We have trade copier integrated into the system. We don’t have a feature which works exactly as you’ve described, but we can easily implement it if there is a need.
7) Today you can copy trades from MT4 to our platform, and the other way.

We hope that free customization will show you all the power of our platform. Yes, you can manipulate spreads,as we have a tick chart with bid/ask prices and you can place a limit orders inside the spreads. Please reffer to this video

What if we are already client of a specific broker ? Who will pay for the platform as there won't be IB commission here ?

hi mozyrdew

for some, there can be customized codes used. I just wanted to state the ones in my mind

1-I want to open long order with eu when 05:00 gmt+3 1hour bar closes. time base pending order.
2-historical news on chart will give different view to the traders.
3-4-6-8-9-10
5-renko option will make your platform 1 step ahead of mt4 while there are many traders using that or willing to use if there is an option
7-such as Forex Factory explorer analyses tool. we can see Equity curve balance curve drawdown% as a graph from the predefined date. it even could be daily base for scalpers. this will give stong information about what is going on.
11-spread is one of the most important thing for the scalpers intraday and news traders. when I trade that way I want to see spread where I am going to click the mouse, buy/sell buttons there are some platforms where spread is a small box in between bid and ask.

good luck with your project

PS : 11-mfe mae data for each trade. traders are lazy people

Hello

first i whish you the best with the new platform and i hope we see a Mt4 Killer. Most of the new (retail) platforms not bad but i know from the Brokerside they are to expensive. It is nice to hear you have a contract with FXCM i can give you contacts to Brokerages if you want.

What i see from the videos it looks very good.

so my Input for your Platform:
1. Backtesting
1.1 Multicurrency (Basket EA´s)
1.2 real Spread
1.3 Slippage (control by milliseconds: example you get the signal at 1.3000 for BUY, then the platform calculate 50ms (can be more or less) the price you get is then the price after your signal + the timeperiod from 50 ms (same as in the real world)
1.4 calculate Commission
1.5 include news (maybe download from FF)
1.6 for asset managers will be fine if the system can calulate a real high watermark performance fee (equity) per month/Quater/year.

for me the backtesting in mt4 is crap and a great problem for most of the trader and coder.

The rest i see will be fine:
Times and Sales, Market Depth, Charting, Speed looks realy nice, i think we will see more in the first demo from you.
