<![CDATA[Forex Software — FST Problem with orders]]> 2013-12-17T22:30:03Z PunBB https://forexsb.com/forum/topic/4549/fst-problem-with-orders/ <![CDATA[Re: FST Problem with orders]]> I think it's the martingale, it has limitations due to MT4, and few errors can come up because of it. Do you consider martingale as a very important building block in your strategy development? I think while you are testing, you should drop martingale and see whether the same fault still manifests itself.

There are a lot of usefull infos about FSB in your post, and thanks for them.
But I still do not know how can I prevent FST to issue orders with 0.01 lots when he wants. I will do some tests with FSB-Pro because I do not trust FST to trade live. Although I had put great hopes in him ...

I`m using 6 FST instances simultaneously . The error occurs randomly, regardless of the EA used or FST instance used

Blaiserboy
How much slippage have you allowed for each of those pairs...?

Not sure if I correctly understood your question .
I`m using an ECN broker .I do not know how could I choose or limit the slippage .
Are you so kind to develop this idea?
How can influence the slippage volume of orders issued by the FST?

Do you use martingale function in your strategy or not?

Yes Sir ! As you can see in picture no 3 ,
"No averaging is alloved "
" No modifications of the present position is alloved" ,
"Always trade a constant number of lots" ,
"Opening of a new position=0.1 lots"
"Apply Martingale ...of 2.00"

But , in my oppinion , there are no reasons that FST to open a new position with 0.01 lots instead of 0.1 lot. I do not discuss here about Martingale progression ( 0.1 / 0.2/ 0.4 /0.8 /1.6 etc ) .
My question was " Why FST randomly order opening 0.01 volume orders, as long as no EA does not use this setting? (minimum lot is 0.1)

In this case I do not see any connexion with martingale...

@togr : Yes . My impression is that it's something about martingale, too.
I will be attentive to this issue  when such unpleasant problems will occur .
PS: However, not  all strategies that use martingale this error occurs...And errors do not occur every time .

Hi,
I have another kind of problem with FST.
Occasionally (3 times so far in 2 weeks) , FST launches 0.01 lot orders instead of the correct volume ones.
When this error occurs, the time of launch order is correct, but the volume is wrong (the correct value is always replaced with 0.01 lot).
My EA's are not using functions like "adding" , "reduce" or trailing stops .
In these circumstances, I did not dare to use FST for live transactions. Unfortunately ...
PS : (The incidents occurred on a demo account opened at Alpari RU)

is it martingale strategy?

Do you have journal screenshots for those? I think it would be good to have them from both FST and MT.
