hi, 1) i created a trial account yesterday and followed the steps...never got the sms...twice!. tried again this morning...got an error. I also filed a account support ticket ..didn't hear back. 2) regarding eurusd intraday data....i see it is coming from FXCM. how is it that the display format is correctly set to .00001 (fractional pip) but the ticksize is set to .00005? my understanding is that the ticksize is what gets used to caluclate P/L along with "currency value per tick"? shouldn't be set to same value as display format? you can profit and loose a fractional pip afterall ! 3) for non USD cross pairs (e.g EURJPY)....how does this ticksize/currency value per tick cater for the fact that the pip/fractional pip value will continuously change with the changes to pair's value? 4) regarding the chart caluclator tool: if you drag it across ...say 5pips on the chart ...it would display an unreadable value of .0005....which is a correct value...just not user friendly. How to change this readout to 5.0 ? 5) for studies to work properly across the differnt currency pairs( having different tick and price display formats)...what "value format" should we use for the studies? inherited? 6) regarding trading automation + ibkr/TWS : suppose i want to trade several instruments at the same time using ascil studies SIMULTANOUSLY...which will require having several charts and studies for each instrument......what is the recommended setup: one SC instance connecting to one ibkr/TWS instance or multiple SC instances connecting to single tws or multiple sc instances...EACH connecting to a UNIQUE TWS instance? 7)are ascil account querying functions ( e.g sc.GetTradePosition) aware of open positions on other instances of sc? |
