PRT Auto-System - Only pushing through 1st Trade ( & not subsequent)


Ugoagoago

Question

Hi -

The issue.

 

I'm running this on a demo a/c.

 

Auto Trade sends the first order to IG Demo a/c but not subsequent orders although they are listed on the PRT order list ?

 

Not sure if it's a setting on PRT or IG

 

All suggestions greatly appreciated,

 

Many Thanks

 

Hugh

Hi Dan,

Just noticed your reply on this. I tried to post some screen shots but kept getting error messages.

 

The solution is that when you go to launching an Auto Trade - there is a small box at the bottom that asks

for maximum trade size.

This could be interpreted as maximum stake per trade (as I thought it was) but it isn't actually this.

It refers to the number of actual trades.

So if you were launching an Auto Trade that traded 2PP and the code added to this position subsequently ,

you need to ensure that the number in the small box is >2.

So for example if you added 5 trades all at 2 PP  = the number in the small box needs to be 10.

 

Hope you followed this !

    • US Dollar (DXY) Daily Price and Analysis US Q1 GDP may stall the greenback’s advance. A 20-year high nears for the US dollar. The multi-month US dollar rally continues with the greenback printing a fresh high today ahead of the first look at US Q1 GDP at 12.30 GMT. The US dollar basket (DXY) has been boosted by renewed weakness in the Euro and the Japanese Yen, as investors move from lower-yielding to higher-yielding currencies, while safe-haven flows continue to benefit the greenback. The US growth release later in the session is expected to show a sharp slowdown from the robust Q4 figure of 6.9%. The markets are currently pricing in growth of just 1% for the first three months of this year, with the slowdown mainly due to a reduction in inventory accrual over the quarter. This release is unlikely to move the greenback, unless there is a large miss or beat, as the Fed believe that 2022 US growth will be robust enough to let them tighten monetary policy sharply without damaging the economy. The latest US Core PCE data – the Fed’s preferred inflation reading – is released on Friday and this may have more effect on the US dollar than today’s GDP data. For all market moving economic data and events, see the DailyFX Calendar. The ongoing US dollar rally has been aided by weakness across a range of G7 currencies including the Euro, the Japanese Yen, and the British Pound. The Euro continues to battle with lowly growth expectations, exacerbated by energy concerns, the British Pound is mired by weak economic data, while the Japanese Yen is in freefall as the BoJ continues with its ultra-loose monetary policy.   The US dollar continues to press higher and looks set to break above 103.96, the March 2020 high. Above here the US dollar would be back at levels last seen nearly two decades ago. The March resistance will likely hold in the short-term, especially with month-end portfolio rebalancing at the end of the week, but US dollar strength is set to continue in the months ahead.
