Over the weekend there was an incident which taught a lesson.
It is necessary that all platforms are to be shut down for sometime over the weekend when the market is at rest. This is to zerorised the "buffer"? thats accumulated over the days on all platforms. When this occur it tends to make the account too slow to bear.
But here is the big No No... DO NOT CHANGE THE NAME OF THE PLATFORM FOLDER !
This was done purposely to identify which folder sequence and where it they are linked to.Big problem is when this is done all the platforms IDs are wiped off ! including the account number, chart set ups, inserted robots and indicators etc all the lots. The easiest way to restore them back is to log in the account details for each and every one. Then insert back all the robots and indicators.
Existing unsolved issues will be :-
1.The existing trades and pending orders are linked to previous trade setups which relate to the id nos.
2. Which charts that are active and what time frame there are in are pertinent as it would effect the works of the robots if they are not the same before the changes.
So in future, just bear the above in mind. You can change changes you want to make. But at least keep it to the minimum and be prepared to what it will come to.
