Hi Rainer,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. For help in German, you can email [email protected]://imageshack.us/a/img801/4695/maximumdeviation2012nov.pngJason

Hi Osama,I apologize for the confusion. The "off quotes" message you got can occur if the prices change between the time you send your order and it's received on our demo servers in the US.There are a few reasons why you might get that "off quotes" message on our MT4 demo and not others. It could be the location of our servers in the US relative to where you are, or the high speed at which prices update on our No Dealing Desk feed as banks quote us new prices, or our 5th digit pricing, or a combination of these factors. In my experience this "off quotes" messa...

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 in Trading Systems 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...
