No. Find a broker able to accommodate the way HGB (and all my other bots since the dawn of time) closes trades. Everyone else from the States has either found one or stopped using HGB....
Anyone with suggestions for a US broker that fits with HGB, I'll certainly investigate making a change. Thanks.

ATC Brokers
I can also confirm that they close margin calls the same as GP, largest loss closes first. Your also going to have access to a free Beeks VPS hardwired to the broker's server. I have no affiliation with ATC or Beeks other than being a client.

quoting from their website,

Do you follow the FIFO rule?
In order to abide by the CFTC FIFO rule, the counter party offsets the positions on a First In First Out basis. On the Empty4 4 platform you have the ability to close the positions as you see fit. For example, if you buy a contract and buy another contract at a later time and you decide to close your most recent buy position, you can simply close this position on the Empty4 interface, however, the order that is sent to the counter party will be offset with the FIFO rule in place. Your net position remains the same on the Empty4 and the back office. For the Trading Station II platform, FIFO is applied only to US accounts.

so.
if you already have a 'default' template, load it and save it as 'default2' or something
setup HGB on one chart
change settings as needed
tick 'allow live trading' in the 'common' tab
activate 'AutoTrading' the Empty4 toolbar
Save template as 'default'
*wait for HGB to do the spread count (might not be needed)
Load the below indicator 'Open Charts in alphabetical order indicator' , hit OK
wait
Empty4 will p̶r̶o̶b̶a̶b̶l̶y̶ most definitely crash at this point, no worry, just reopen it
wait some more
close the first chart that still has the open charts indicator loaded.
rename default2 template back to default if needed

sit back and watch the pips roll in :yahoo:

Hmmmm. So encouraging to find yet another dimwit too thick to read the user guide.

READ THE FUCKING MANUAL YOU CRETIN. This information is already there for anybody with the brains to read it.

Annoy me one more time and I delete your registration.

Capiche, dimwit?

I would like to apologize to all for some statements I made in a previous post...

Sometimes I get frustrated after hearing some bad news, and tend to take it out on the first person I come across. :arrrg: (Apologies Tredinator) :oops:

I will do my best to contribute when I have something worthwhile to offer...
Sincere apologies

Tony

Thanks wolfeman and I am pleased to meet you too!

Not to distract from topic here, but my father is 91yrs and has dementia and he can be quite difficult at times to say the least, but I love him...

Anyway, that isn't anyone's problem here!
Once again I have learned from my failures and will try to improve.

Thanks again wolfeman

Cheers

What kind of News was this? i have never seen such an impact in the 1.5 years of forex.
Lucky i got only 3 open trades on CHFJPY, but with no stoploss (1250 pips drawdown).
Lets see what happens when price return (there will be a move back). :clap: :clap:
