Don't worry, the plaforma upgrade is going on all the time.

There will be a beta version of MT5 as early as this Friday, with a host of new features.

The buy limit issue is clear, we will still discuss the expediency of such behaviour. From the chart we will allow to place orders inside of the spread, although it is very dangerous because of the low accuracy (M1 does not help much).

Then maybe add a tick chart as well... :)
 

The problem is that in a universal platform it is not always possible to know exactly which execution rules a particular gateway supports. Especially in liquidity provider aggregation mode.

For example, in forex ECN such a Buy Limit order above the ask may (depending on the matching engine) pour you not "at a price no worse", but "at exactly that price, because you yourself requested a worse ask". There are many execution systems, many traders and changing our current safe model will either lead to careless pouring at bad prices or constant failures due to a deliberately wrong price.

We decided to make a hybrid betting system with key modifiers:

  • By default, everything works as it is now - a safe model with Buy Stop and Sell Stop orders, including rollovers over the spread zone

  • If you press the Ctrl key, the Buy Stop and Sell Stop order rejection model will start working, including transfers.

    It means that if you press the Ctrl key, you can place Buy Limit above Ask and Sell Limit below Bid. Of course, with the risk of being rejected because of the wrong price.
 
Thank you very much for that.
 

Great news!

It would be good to have the tumbler settings in Settings, including this option "On/Off safe model". The default setting would be safe, and for those who know what they're doing, the option to change the behaviour of the tumbler would be provided.

Here's just including the delivery of real tick data in any depth from the trading servers.

In one build the tester will be able to fully use this tick data in testing trading strategies.

This is how we enable the delivery of real tick data at any depth from the trade servers.

In one build the tester will be able to fully use this tick data in testing trading strategies.

This is great news. It is very good for testing with short stops and trailing inside the candle. But I also want the indicators to work on the tick chart in trading. Right now the minimum timeframe is one minute. In today's day and age, this is already a lot, and in the future, most likely. Due to the metaquotes, algotrading is becoming more popular, but the demands are growing in algotrading, one wants more and more accuracy. One day you may present a tick chart for trading. We will wait...

Here's just turning on the delivery of real tick data in any depth from the trading servers.

Now that's very good news! Finally!

Will the tick data be taken from the broker's server or only from the MQ server?

I support you! The tick chart will be very useful for trading.

From the broker's server.
