Hi Raymond,
Good to hear from you.
I’m surprised to hear that you had issues with the password and syncing. I have set up about 100 FX Blue accounts and have never had that issue. I also teach this in all my courses, and have never had any student comment that they had difficulty. Thank you for bringing this to my attention. I will certainly mention it in my future courses.
And the point you make about turning off your PC is valid, and again, I will mention it in future courses. For your own info, the EAs that have opened trades, will remain open until the TP or SL is reached, even if your PC is off. However, if your PC is on, it can close trades when TP or SL is reached, but also if the exit conditions are met, as per the rules of the EA. But yes, it won’t open trades, because the EA resides on your PC, not on the broker’s server, so in a case like yours, where you turn your PC off, I agree a VPS would be best.
Thanks again for bringing this to my attention. I always appreciate intelligent, solid advice.
All the best,
Ilan
