Hi Maximiliano and Osama,If you're getting an "off quotes" message, it's possible your Max Deviation setting is too low. Since FXCM uses 5-digit pricing (fractional pips), every 10 points for the Maximum Deviation is equivalent to one pip. If you adjust your Max Dev in the Order window, that should solve the problem. Try setting the max deviation to 20 or 30 as shown below.http://imageshack.us/a/img801/4695/maximumdeviation2012nov.pngJason

Hi Ayyashi,If you're getting "off quotes" messages, try changing your Maximum Deviation settings as I mentioned in my previous post. That has worked for others.Jason

Hello miszczumario,If you look at the journal entries, it indicates the order rejection occurred due to "Off-Quote". This indicates that by the time the order reached the system for execution, the current market price was outside the maximum deviation you specified for the order. The order will be rejected in this case. This can be caused if there is any latency in the internet connecting causing the order to arrive after the market price has changed or if you are sending orders during volatile market conditions when prices are changing rapidly. Not allowing any flexibility would...

Contest - egyptnile dans Systèmes de Trading Nov 19, 2012 at 16:51

Hello egyptnile and Marian,As bebasasia mentioned, please increase the maximum deviation and it should reduce the occurrence of the off-quote message. I would suggest increasing it to 10 or 20 which would indicate a maximum deviation of 1-2 pips. The off-quote message will appear if the market price has moved outside of the maximum deviation range by the time the order is received. So if your order has a max deviation of 0, the order will be rejected if the market price has moved at all. The odds of the market price moving will increase if your internet connection is slow or you're try...

Hello Dhymas,FXCM has both No Dealing Desk and Dealing Desk forex execution. So our traders can choose which they prefer. We recommend No Dealing Desk forex execution to our clients because it provides our best all around trading experience. For traders whose main concern are spreads, we offer dealing desk execution where the spread is about 1 pip tighter than the NDD execution. There are certain limitations to the dealing desk offering which you can view in the comparison chart here http://www.fxcm.com/advantages/forex-execution/compare-execution-types/Let me know if you have any question...

Off Quotes on MT4 Contest November 15th? dans Général Nov 16, 2012 at 20:43

Hi Everyone,If you are getting Off-Quote you can increase the max deviation to reduce the likelihood of it appearing. If you receive the Off-Quote message, it means the market price is different from the price you requested in your order. You can enable max deviation and set it to 10 or 20, which indicates 1.0 or 2.0 pips. This gives you flexibility in case the price has moved when the order is submitted for execution. See xgavinc's post 2 up for instructions on how to set a default max deviation for every order.And finally, just a reminder that trading closes today at 21:55GMT and wil...

Hi Airborn_trading,Off-quotes can appear on MT4 if the market price moves negatively beyond the price you specified in the max deviation setting and your order cancels. What I would suggest is increasing the maximum deviation to either 10 or 20. This would allow you 1.0 or 2.0 pips of flexibility in case the market price has changed by the time your order has been received for execution. If the market price has moved beyond that amount, the order will be rejected with the Off-Quote message.Let me know if you have any questions and good luck in the contest.Jason
