This means that the orders and market-related values shown on the BROKER platform are valid. The broker's platform should always be active as a backup to AgenaTrader. This gives you an essential overview of the interaction between AgenaTrader and your broker. Furthermore, you will always know exactly how your orders/positions and ultimately your account balance are displayed.

Warning! This does not work with the desktop MB trading platform.

ClientID

In some cases user can get notification:

It means ClientID in AT and TWS differs. ClientID must be synchronous between AT and TWS, as otherwise information is not transmitted correctly to the AT. To avoid this User should synchronize the ClientIDs because of the two attachments, or set them to 0 in AT and delete them in the TWS.

AgenaTrader++ (plusplus) Resolve Setup

This is one of the essential tools in AT++.

AgenaTrader++ (plusplus) resolve setup works in the following manner:

If you have submitted and confirmed orders, AgenaTrader++ strategies will continue to run even when the trading platform is closed.
These strategies will be saved within the system.
When you start AgenaTrader up again, the strategies will be adjusted to the current market conditions.

If you plan to keep an intraday trade with the AT++ setup overnight, we recommend that you do not turn off AgenaTrader since this can lead to unexpected order behavior. For example, order groups managed by AgenaTrader, such as IfDone and OCO, are often not linked to your broker due to the fact that the majority of brokers do not support these special types of orders. Only having AT opened ensures that all setups and functionalities will remain unchangeable.

If something happens during the time in which AgenaTrader is closed (e.g. filled or cancelled orders, closed trades etc.), stops will be recalculated and positions/setups will be adjusted etc. Obviously, this can be dangerous.

Should this occur, you will receive a recovery popup (see image below) displaying the trades which require your intervention and supervision:

Functions of the buttons in the recovery popup:

The Entry Escort button allows you to enter the strategy. NOTE: the Trades tab will display the entry reason.
The button Session allows user to select analyzer session
The Confirm button applies the suggested actions.
Chart area provides you access to all chart function. Details on section Chart Toolbar

If you close the popup without confirmation, you will have to clear the trades manually.

Dukascopy

Brief overview of Dukascopy

Dukascopy is counted among the ECN (electronic communication network) brokers. These brokers provide the opportunity to move orders to the international trading floor, where traders can consequently receive the best offers from other brokers in real time. One of the important advantages of ECN brokers is that they are not market-makers, and therefore do not trade against their own clients.

Supported asset classes: CFD's, Currency

Supported orders: OCO order connections are locally simulated ORO order connections are locally simulated IFDone order connections are locally simulated

You can open a real or demo account at Dukascopy via our website.

Connecting

Please follow the instructions in the following video to establish the connection correctly:

How to establish a connection to Dukascopy:

Step 1. The first authentication popup will appear during the Dukascopy connection process. AgenaTrader uses this to connect to jForex API. Here, you need to enter your credentials and activate the PIN Code checkbox.

Step 2. After entering your PIN Code the second authentication popup will appear. This popup provides a connection to the Dukascopy website, from which AgenaTrader gets historical executions. Please activate the PIN Code checkbox and enter your PIN as you did before, then click the Submit button.

Essential information

In Account tab there are two additional columns: Available Margin (display Free Margin in Dukascopy client) and Used Margin.

Important!

If you have a DukasCopy account or request a new one, please make sure that the account type is "NonHedged". It is only with these settings that AgenaTrader can function flawlessly with DukasCopy.

Any client using Agena Trader is set to global mode. Global mode is net position mode, where any new trade is automatically merged into the existing position of the same instrument. CFD's must be added manually for clients that are in this mode and using Agena.

If your DukasCopy account has not yet been activated for CFDs, AgenaTrader can only load historical data, not real-time or delayed data.

In some cases, there might be problems with DukasCopy autostart.

There are three ways to solve it: 1. Check in Account Settings that checkbox Auto Start is active. 2. Deactivate Pin (Available only for live accounts) 3. If you have static IP please contact DukasCopy support team and they should not request pin when you connect with this IP.

Please note that all MT5 charts will be running in the timezone of the MT5 server, which is not always the same as the timezone of your AgenaTrader or your PC. This behavior is expected and results from the fact that AgenaTrader has to exactly mirror the charting behavior in MetaTrader 5

The maximum number of real time charts in MT5 is 100.

However, please keep in mind that this number does not exactly mean that you are allowed to load 100 MT5 instruments in your AgenaTrader. The number can be lower in the following cases:

Multiple charts running in different time frames for the same instrument
Some charts have been opened manually in MetaTrader 5 and are running without the MtApi5 expert indication
Running MtApi5 expert charts for which AgenaTrader has not been subscribed to (leftovers from other connections)

Connection and loading issues with XTB (XOpenHub)

Description of the problem

What has happened?

It takes a very long time for the connection to XTB (XOpenHub) to be established as a data feed. Despite a successful connection, it takes 10 minutes or more to load the charts.
Halfway through the progress bar, the connection is lost, AgenaTrader reconnects and the loading process restarts from the beginning.
AgenaTrader issues warnings in the protocol tab. Histories, instruments, symbols cannot be requested or loaded. Double-clicking on the warning opens the protocol tab.

What does this mean?

The mapping of XTB instruments was not imported.
The XTB (XOpenHub) server interrupts every connection that requests too many foreign (false) symbols (instruments). XTB only supports Forex and CFDs.

Possible solutions

Re-import the XTB mappings and, if need be, the corresponding instrument lists as well. You can find further information on this in this Wiki article.
Delete all instruments/symbols that are shown as a warning in the protocol tab. As an extra aid, you should check the Last Prices column. If no prices are being displayed there, the instrument can be deleted from the list, since no data is being received here.
Use an alternative data feed such as TaiPan, IQFeed, Barchart and co. for the data that is not made available by XTB. Here you can find a data feed overview for AgenaTrader.
