There is a manual included with the download of the mt4i copier. I suggest you either first or at the same time play with a separate master and slave terminal (diff channel!!) with the copier and open trades on your own master and client. That way you'll see what the various settings do. Basically all you need to do is:antcj wrote:Ok re the trade copy, how do i get it to open trades on my live account? or is that not possible.?
1. install FMFX's broker terminal client, connect to his account with investor password
2. install your broker terminal (if not already done)
3. install the "MT4iPersonalTradeCopierSetup.exe" to the master and slave Empty4 terminal directories
4. restart both terminals
5. add the "Sender" EA to FMFX's terminal (only 1 chart), the defaults pretty much work for the Sender
6. add the "Receiver" EA to your (DEMO!) terminal (only 1 chart), set the settings your want - primarily MM type
7. make sure the "Channel" matches. it does by default
8. i usually use on the Receiver "TradeAllOrdersAtMarket" = true personally but, you may not want to.
9. i prefer IncludePendingOrders = false on Sender so i don't fill a pending that the Master has not
10. for safety on the Receiver if you don't use Fixed lotsize be absolutely sure you set "MaxLots" because a mistake size entered on the master using a setting like LotsizeMultiplier could cause a margin call or larger than intended loss. just my opinion.
11. RTFM (Read the Fraking Manual)
Play with it on your own master and slave terminal opening and closing your own trades to learn it best.
