I have managed account under my login (accounts from other customers). I expect to take one position based on the TOTAL BALANCE and then the system split profit/loss based on each account sub-balance instead entering each trade for each account.
Right now i have three accounts but 8 in process of funding and it becomes in a huge posibility of error trying to put orders to each account.
Also (i saw in other thread) the option of setting stop/limits BEFORE entering the trade instead after open.

Hello,
Thank you for the suggestion. I'll pass it along. Currently, you can place the same order to mulitple accounts by ensuring that each account that you wish the order to be placed with has a checkmark next to it when you place your market and/or entry order; this allows you to simultaneously place the same order to many accounts under one login.
Regards,
Chris

Chris,
Thanks for your answer, but I want to be clear that the actual is not the BEST procedure.
1. - Stop/Limit Orders: Although you may put Entry orders for all checked accounts, you must fill stop orders one by one (order by order)
2. - Less business to CMS:. Calculating lots for each account (and rounding it) is less than giving ALL the balance and decide the size of the trade (only one round)
3.- ID of Accounts: The identification of accounts appear by letters (i.e. xxxxa; xxxxb; xxxxc) instead balance or clients name so there is a high possibility of making mistakes just by putting different lots to each account.
There are just of the highlights. Imagine you have 50 accounts/clients…. It will be impossible to manage in this way.
Two questions… does anyone reading this forum manage accounts? In this case, are you agreed or no problem for you?. Do you have this requirement before?

Hello,
Again, thank you for your comments and suggestions. Being able to place attached stop/limit orders along with entry orders and market orders are 2 features that are currently under development.
The idea to integrate a full money manager module/section has been discussed in the past and has been put into the development database. There has been no additional discussion regarding specific feature sets and/or a development timeline; basically, the idea has only been documented for possible future development at this point in time.
Regards,
Chris

Hi Chris,
ref your statement copied below: can you please give us an update on the status of the possibility of setting stop / limit prices from auto trading scripts.
the ability to set / modify Stop and Limit prices to trades (by ticket number) would be a great addition to VT Trader and make this system very robust and bring out its potential greatly.
thanks,
regards,
Serge

Hello,
Those statements were in regards to placing stoploss and limit orders with manually submitted entry orders (already possible) and manually submitted market orders.
In regards to including the ability to submit stoploss and limit orders using an automated trading system, that feature will very likely be included as well, but it is not currently under development.
Regards,
Chris
