Using Multiple Logins
submitted by alice_in_lexington 4 months, 11 days ago

—  For folks using the SDK, you need to 2 logins:  one for use with Desktop Pro and the other for use with your program.  The problem is if you ever try to use the same login for Desktop Pro and your program, the last one in will die silently.  So if you are running your program and have logged in, then you try to fire up Desktop Pro and login with the same login, Desktop Pro will just go away.  No error message.  No warning.  It just disappears.  Similarly, if you have Desktop Pro loaded and you try to run your program and login, your program will just end without warning.

If you cannot let users login to Desktop Pro and their programs with the same login, could you please pop up an error message indicating this if and when they try (because they will).  So if you are logged into your program and you try to load Desktop Pro and login with the same login, please show an error message indicating "Login ID already in use.  Please use a different login" or something similar.

Add Security Token to the Log In Credentials
submitted by Crassius 4 months, 12 days ago

—  Increasingly, my financial account log in credentials are being enhanced by the use of a security token that generates a one time password to log into my account.  I believe this scheme is becoming the industry norm as online fraud continues to be a huge problem.

One way to add this protection would be for MB Trading to join VeriSign's VIP access network.  A customer would buy the token from VeriSign if they wanted this protection... they are $30 and can be used at other sites that also belong to the network... that's what makes this one solution appealing, some customers already own the token, and in any case, could use the same token, and the investment in one across multiple participating sites.

Of course there are many other ways to add this level of security.  VeriSign's seems to be a good program from a trusted company.  You can check their program out here:

Make order history of past days available through SDK
submitted by Zsolt 4 months, 18 days ago

—

Currently, there is no way to know what exactly happened to each of my positions that I left yesterday (or even days ago), that got filled and/or even closed. The only way to get some information is to log into the website and look at the trade history, but that list also misses commissions. 

If I had 5 different open positions yesterday (probably on different forex pairs), it is not enough to know that all of them were either stopped out or reached profit.
It is necessary to know exactly when and at which price each individual position got filled, as well as when and at what price it got closed. There is no statistics without that.
 
Right now this information is available for today’s events, so MBTrading is suitable for daytraders who open and close all their positions the same day.
 
But it is impossible to maintain accurate records of positions that span multiple days. It cannot be done using MBT Desktop either. 
 
So, position traders who trade stocks and/or forex and are using hourly/daily charts, and usually leave positions pending/open for several days (with at least a protective stop order) cannot use MBTrading effectively because they don’t know what happened to their positions. 

I suggest to improve the SDK to be able to access the order history for past days (past 30 days is more than enough - the website offers trade history for 30 days). Maybe we could set a parameter before calling DoLogin that specifies how many days' order history to download to the OrderHistories collection of the OrderClient, after a successful login. That way, the information would be automatically available to MBT Desktop users, as well as to 3rd party developers. (I'm a 3rd party charting software developer)

An alternative (and less favorable) solution would be to create a web service like the MBT Historical API, that can be used to query a user’s execution history, and would return the same data that is currently accessible for any user when he logs into mbtrading.com client area, and go to trade history. But please include commissions to this list as well.

Thanks

64 Bit Navigator/MBT Desktop
submitted by Mark5100 4 months, 23 days ago

—

Most computers being used for trading are running 64 Bit Operating systems which allow them to take advantage of a lot more memory but the current versions of Navigator/MBDesktop are 32 bit applications. This makes a huge performance difference if you want to open a lot of charts and analysis. 

At a minimum a 64 bit version of the MB Navigator should be released so that programs like Ninja Trader 64 bit version can be used with MB trading. The current 32 bit MB Navigator will not work with 64 Bit versions of 3rd party apps which foreces you to use the 32 Bit apps only

Introduce Trade Through Stop Method facility in the MT4
submitted by x-trader 5 months, 2 days ago

— Pending orders in MT4 are implicitly executed on the "touch" method (short pending orders are executed when BID touches its price and long pending orders are executed when ASK touches its price). It would be nice to have an option here, as in the Desktop Pro, to choose whether the pending orders are to be executed on default or trade through method (http://www.mbtrading.com/forexTutorials.aspx).

Chart Tick Counter
published 5 months, 5 days ago, submitted by inthezone 5 months, 9 days ago

—  A nice feature would be a tick counter on the charts for the current bar, similar to the minute countdown.  For example, if a 500 tick chart is being viewed, a counter in the bottom right corner would count from 500 to 0 (or 0 to 500) for each bar, and then start back over when the next bar is printed.  This seems like a quick add-in, since the ticks are already being counted.....although I guess there could be a lag between the printed tick count and the actual tick count with high volume securities.

I found no results when searching for this idea, so I am interested to hear if this has ever been brought up.

Thanks,
Brandon

Allow coloring of candles with formula/color study
submitted by AndrewsFX 5 months, 13 days ago

—  Formula Study window, Chart Type section:

I suggest adding "color candle" option.

This way if formula condition is met, candle is colored in some color. There should be option to choose candle color and outline/wick color.

The same applies to color studies, this way we could customize how we want to highlight candle by defining different formulas on Color Study window :

below "Line color" dropdown there could be checkbox "color candle" and "Candle Color" dropdown next to it.

Simple and elegant.

Don't expand width of the wick
submitted by AndrewsFX 5 months, 13 days ago

— If we use Increase/Decrease width of the candle PLEASE do not expand wick width too. It should remain the same as candle body outline what is 1 pixel.  Because now if we want to magnify chart and have bigger candles chart becomes very ugly with fat wicks...
