Hello everyone,Our current set files loaded in our server only go to 100 lots (max-100). There are a lot of brokers that limit to 100 lots like Tradefort and Trading Point, which is why you should open up several small accounts if you have over $4,000 in a cent account.Right now I only see this being an issue with Instaforex (accounts based in 10,000 units) and for members trading with large amounts of capital (over a quarter million dollars).I think there may be issues if I increase the set files in the server to 1000 with members using cent accounts because the server will load set files for a larger max lot size than the broker will allow resulting in trades getting blocked when a large basket is formed.I think we will have to send members custom set files for capital levels over $300,000 and for Instaforex users. They would still be able to use the News filter and the NBP function. It is very difficult to code a solution for every situation because of all the different set-ups out there. -Robert from Team Envy

Now the same as required by 2.1 HV Set Files.$180 - Power Long/Short$105 - NV Long $75 - LV LongAlso mentioned was we should restrict our 3.0 testing to Accounts with realistic Balances.Say 1x to 5x the min start amounts.Until the Set File server software is modified to handle the very large accounts balances some of us are using in Beta test.Like ME... As I found out the BaseLotSize maxes out and will not go above 0.09 for Power Longs.Others have found as I did that the ROIs are not very good.This is what is causing it.So guys lets cut back the Chart/Mode Combos Working Balances (Risk * Balance) to no greater than 5x the min for your Broker type.Until FE create and upload the new Set File server software.Anyone trying to get 3.0 Manual Mode to work, like me, needs to wait for the next 3.0 Beta update.When I go live at TradeFort I will have a $500 Cent account. So my present 3.0 demo is a $50,000 account since they don't have cent account demos. Am I understanding that for the time being I can only have an account of 5 x 180 = $900 max with Power? Will the lot sizes on the TradeFort demo account be small enough to work properly?Thanks,Rod

About brokers,I hope FE team will find a solutions for real USD capital up to maybe 20 000USDI'd prefer TradeFort than Insta, but if I must go Insta, I willThanks
I just had an EURUSD short cycle trade close with a massive loss on both my Power Demo and my 3.0 HV demo. I haven't had the time to look into this, so I'm not yet sure if somethign went wrong, or if it was just a SL (but for a SL the loss seems to be waaay too small). The accounts can be seen here:http://www.myfxbook.com/members/MWCore/pols-tradefort-3k-l500-r1/336920http://www.myfxbook.com/members/MWCore/hvls-tradefort-l500-r1/336930
i didn't know Profiforex has a limit 0f 50 orders.i will check with team envy about the settings. i saw i can ask a request to have more open orders on the account based of their FAQs.then i will see if team envy want me to contact profiforex support to increase the amount of open orders.QuoteAre there any restrictions concerning the number of orders that can be opened at the same time? You can open not more than 50 orders simultaneously. We can raise this limit to 300 orders upon the request, but the minimum volume in this case will be 0.05 lot.
