Look into my thread here in SHFX.com (link in the bottom of all my posts).
I attached recently my settings in a post there.

when you make a new chart it inherits the global setting. close all your charts then open a bunch of new ones, But probably easier to go thru each and fix.xfactornos » Sat Oct 04, 2014 6:43 pm wrote:The copy template script is amazing but I notice it doesn't enable the DLL import. I have to go back through and enable that box on all of them even if the master chart has it enabled. is that a bug? Has anyone else tried the script and noticed that problem?
This occurs on a new chart, meaning nothing has ever been loaded on it.
anyone use the chat feature here, it's not too busy, but this thread is!!. I keep the chat open sometimes.

Just mirroring a few items that others have observed here. If you are in the US and use 50:1 it will be very difficult to get FB to work at default settings without getting a margin call eventually. One can try to play with the number of pairs and positions to try to make FB work on M15 or just switch to H1/H4 (the higher TF are obviously safer). I am still going to test M15 a little, as it seems there is a delicate balance here between correlated pairs, number of open positions, and available margin. Anyway, just my two cents for now on this excellent bot.

This thread would be polluted to buggery by posts from people too thick and lazy to even read the Welcome message I send to new member properly, were I to allow it. I do not, and so delete them instead. Maybe I need to adopt a harsher approach; not sure yet.
So, this message is for the morons too lazy and stupid to do even a modicum of thinking for yourselves. FB trades an ootb default of the M15 time frame. It matters not a jot what your chart time frame is.
Capiche, dimwits?

And for the rest of us with the occasional firing synapse, I will provide a version tomorrow that displays our trading time frame on the chart.
Guess how I just worked out that this might be helpful?

This fucking platform will defeat you guys at every end and turn.
On restarting my live/demo platforms this week I find every possible obstacle thrown in my way.
My live GP platform loaded with live trading disallowed. My demos are loading with umpteen charts missing the ea's I had loaded onto them.
Trust nothing those crapwits at crapperquotes throw at us guys. Mistrust everything.
Jeremy, can you really do nothing about all this? Do you brokers really have as much control over all this as in infant school child?

I had the same issue with a load of a new build -- opened up my VPS to a new build running with a bunch of open orders running and no EA. I am just developing a habit of assuming that something will go wrong with Empty4 every market open.
