Some things that grab me on this first review of this service
1. A page selection bar "Previous, 1, 2, 3... Next" bar at the top of the page as well as at the bottom of the page so you don't have to scroll to the bottom if you know you want to read, say page 10 through the thread and don't want to scroll down nine times to get to page 10.
2. An email notification when the topic is updated, perhaps daily, with the comments that are updated included in the email so that we can decide whether to visit and submit a reply, rather than having to visit to see what was said.
3. The choice to subscribe to certain threads to get these email updates.
4. When I have submitted a comment, I search the page for a link that will return me to the page I was at--there is none. At present I have to click the tag up the top which says "Navigator" etc. and that puts me at page one again, so I have to scroll through all pages to get where I was up to.

would like to see a real time news source added to the navigator and/or MT 4 platforms. Need fast access to important people's speeches(Bernanke, Trichet, key Fed personnel, government figures, etc.) and real time access to data (GDP, interest rate decisions, etc) as they happen. read more...

I know this has been posted before but it is very important. MB Trading should keep track of the opening price for all positions. When a position is closed - during the same day - or another day - show the real p&l based on the opening price. I dislike that all P&L's for non-day trades are based off of yesterday's closing price. This makes no sense.

I used to trade with CyberTrader (now part of Charles Schwab). They were very good and always showed the read p&l. CyberTrader also used Penson as a back-end like MB Trading. But CyberTrader kept track of the open prices for all positions so they could show the read p&l. read more...

In general if we do not live in united states, we have to pay much money to realize a bank wire and also to receive one withdrawal.

We need simpler and economic methods to realize the deposit of the funds and the withdrawal of the same.

Nowadays exist many systems of payments, sure and rapid please evaluate some and put it to our disposition. For example: Paypal, Credit Card.....

Thank you, It is an idea in order that we all are benefited... read more...

it would be great if we can do this:
1. view market depth at nav
2. view chart at mt4
3. buy order using mt4
4. view my orders at nav
at the same time simultaneously.

NOTE:
i think this wouldn't be necessary (this idea would be waste of time implemented) if mt5 is released and mbtrading using it. read more...

It would be very helpful to be able to download historical Forex data for backtesting, specifically at least a year of 1 minute data for each currency pair. read more...

I would like to see that on your original position, gain or loss be shown from the time you enter the position and any averaging up or down be calculated be shown from the time you enter until you close the position rather then just for that trading day. read more...

Please add a column to the watchlist that shows % change between open price and close 1 day ago. This would remain a fixed value throughout the day. This would be useful for fading the gap.
I do not wish to use the existing dynamic %Change that shows last vs. previous close.

Thank you

I have read about the NavPro and have heard people comment about it and have seen screenshots of it, but have never tried it before.

I saw that its limited to 300 users, hope you open it to more people. read more...

Roll out your web-based trading platform. Many users are behind firewalls at work and cannot access the navigator client. The fact that this feature is advertised on your homepage (even with the "beta" logo in small print)is misleading to those interested in using MB as their broker and frustrating for the rest of us.

It can't be that hard to have basic order-entry features and account data availabe - it doesn't have to be pretty, merely functional. read more...

As of the Navigator 11.3.0.4, I can only enter sell orders for positions I am holding long. In futures trading, short orders are entered into as often as long orders. read more...

You should be able to have the option of having your order details showing on your charts. ie. order entry line with a bubble showing your order info, also showing the stop loss line and limit on an order, also showing a trailing stop and how it moves as the price goes up or down, etc. It's much easier to follow what's going on with the movement of an order compared to the action of the chart than continually checking the "positions" window for PnL on the order. read more...

I often know by 9 PM the previous day what I want to order the following AM. I'd like to be able to do it then instead of between 8:30 and 9:30 the following AM, assuming I have the cash for it. read more...

Currently the only way to fund accounts or make withdrawals is via wire transfer or check. Other brokers are now offering the ability to "debit" funds or transer electronically. This is a very widely used feature in other areas, why do I need to drive to the bank and sit in the bankers office for 15 - 25 minutes to carry out a wire transer when I can do so from my trade desk electronically? read more...

Facilitate free generation of Schedule-D reports (that take care of wash-sales as well) for tax filing purpose. This is what TD Ameritrade provides. For detailed requirements, have a look at TDA's implementation. Currently Penson has a Profit/Loss link but this is clunky and could be improved upon. read more...

Allow Navigator and SDK programs to run at the same time. In fact require that Navigator be running and
have SDK program(s) connect to running navigator to communicate with MB Trading.

Currently I have to kill my trading program to see if
anything went wrong, or to see my current P/L, or pending orders.

Or from another point of view, If I write a program to
run all day, I need to rewrite those portions of the Navigator which provide useful information, like P/L, errors, alerts etc.

Also allow multiple trading programs to run at the same time on the same machine. read more...
