Hi all.
I wonder if someone may give me some advice?
I have been trading FX for around 5 years with IG Markets. I have recently switched to Axi Trader because I decided to develop my own EA's and needed metatrader.
The development side was easy...the programming not so easy so had one professionally programmed.
It works of 4H and Daily time frame.
Here's the issue...the daily trades won't open and comes back with an error message because Axi Trader don't allow trading in the first 5 minutes of the day due to what can sometimes be massive spreads whilst the market settles. Don't have an issue with that and it makes sense however a) is that the same with all metatrader brokers? b) how can it be over come?
My programmer says that he has programmed the EA that if conditions are right the EA will trade after 5 minutes. This isn't happening.
So is it a programming issue or a Axi Trader issue?
The 4H works perfectly so it is just something about that first 5 minutes of the daily.
any help/advise is much appreciated
