Last updated 2 months ago

Trading not possible

Issue:

The trading function in the chart context menu and/or QuickSetup buttons are disabled.

Possible Causes & Solutions:

✅ Incorrect Multi-Brokerage Settings

  • Go to Tools → Settings → Account Connections and check if your broker, asset classes, and markets are correctly activated.

✅ Not Connected to Your Broker Account

  • Go to Main → Connections → Connect and establish the broker connection.

✅ Incorrect Trading Hours or Pauses

  • Check your trading hours and breaks in the Instrument Editor and General Settings.

✅ Pre- & Post-Market Trading Activated

  • If enabled, adjust off-market price movements in Marketplace Escort and disable them via the chart toolbar button.


Error When Submitting an Order

Issue:

Your order is not being sent to the broker.

Possible Causes & Solutions:

✅ Missing or Incorrect Mappings

  • If you get a mapping error, re-import mappings.

  • If the instrument mapping is missing or incorrect, request it via the Instrument Editor → Feedback button.

✅ Incorrect Tick Size

  • If you get a tick size error, adjust the tick size to match your broker's settings.

  • Check your broker's website or reference platform for correct tick size details.

✅ Insufficient Account Balance

✅ Unmet Margin Requirements

  • If margin requirements aren’t met, deposit funds or close open positions.
