xr86yp295m Forex Leader: 5-digit brokers

5-digit brokers

June 7, 2009

Well markets open in 5 hours, I hope everyone's ready.

A user brought up the fact that his broker (Alpari) uses 5 digits instead of 4 (I don't know why, but it's something we're seeing more of). So I have asked a programmer - one of the best - to make the necessary changes in the EA for those of you whose broker also has 5 digits.

In the meantime, simply make the changes in your EAs, that is, multiply by 10. For instance, if the SL for a pair is 150, this will come out to 15 on a five-digit broker. So set the SL to 1500 and you should be fine. Also adjust TPs in the same manner.

As far as I know, all the other settings should not be affected, but please fly me off an email if I'm wrong.
