You want to say that there are no news shown? On Forex pairs? On VPS or local machine?
Happy pippin, Thomas :-BD

Correct,
There is no news on Tdesk on any machine I have hosted Tdesk on, however I can open the Forex Factory link "Open FF Calendar".
This never happened to me until 2 months ago!
I honestly don't know what I might be doing wrong!
Are the news dependent on any particular file?

This seems an issue affecting only you. Try a TDesk with default settings.

Hi Thomas,
I put the standard tdesk on the platform but the news still doesn’t appear, I even set up a new Empty4 with all the default settings and downloaded all the files but the problem persists, I honestly don’t know what I’m doing wrong or what is creating this problem, this never happened to me.
Is there any other way to find out about my problem?
Cheers,
RMSSC

A question about the incremental lot sizing option - I see multiple trades of the same pair with the same lot size, about 10 min apart. Thinking this through I'm guessing that it is because i have grid trading enabled? and that is overriding the lot sizing? Can you confirm that is the issue or is there another setting I should be checking? Thanks

I have looked at the code in the grid sending functions. The lot size of the first trade in the grid is incremented but I forgot to keep a record of the new lot size, so all subsequent grid orders go in at the same size.

I will fix this.

Read the effing manual, ok?

I still suffer from OCCD. Good thing, really.
