Hi,
I purchased an Expert Advisor tool in MT4 and it isn't working, I have check everything and the only thing left I haven't checked is whether it actually works with my Spread Betting account.
Have you encountered this problem before?
Thanks,
Richard Holden
Excellent question . Excellent response !!!!
took the words out of my mouth !!!
Will an MT4 script recognise the difference between buying fx lots and spread betting bet sizes ?
in Foreign Exchange (FX)
Posted
I am just wondering if i use a purchased MT4 script or EA to trade FX on my MT4 "spreadbetting" account which bets @ 1 pound or 2 pounds a point rather than the usual 0.1 or 0.2 "FX lots" , will the script recognize this and successfully place a trade ?
asking because FX lots are usually USD and we can bet in pounds in the UK, if we choose .
1 = buying 100,000 of the currency in FX lots ( 10 dollars for every pip movement )
where 1 = only 10,000 notional value in spreadbetting ( 1 gbp / dollar for every pip movement )
also asking because there I noticed a stark difference in the numerical format of gbp/usd on FX versus spreadbetting . the decimal point is in a completely different place spread bet amount is 13849 for GBPUSD
where as FX is 1.3849 for GBPUSD
and theres obviously betting in GBP rather than USD ( or jpy etc etc ) , which surely must get mentioned somewhere in the script
