hI my broker amp futures allows for rth day margins during overnight session. however even though i receave email from my broker that regular trading margings are restored after news events i still cannot trade my live account since sierra chart notes that the required margin is still set at 25%

could you please fix this bug and allow me to trade live during london session on normal trading days?

Sierra Chart is not able to control broker margins. We see you are using Teton order routing, and the 25%, does seem to us to be what AMP uses overnight for that.

AMP requires 100% exchange margin from 1555-1600, and, as SC has stated, for Teton, a minimum of 25% margin from 1700 => 0830, those times are based on Central Time here in the United States. So wherever you're located, check the current time in Chicago to see if you are attempting to trade during those "Chicago" hours.

AMP Futures have promised that they are working on bringing their overnight margins when using Teton routing in to line with CQG and Rithmic routing margins ie Day session margins would apply for most of the trading day.
