I couldn't find any indicator functions listed within the Order2Go Help, so I ended up coding my own e.g. Moving Average function; but I would now like to use other indicators. Prior to trying to code for them, have I missed anything in the help files? Do any indicator functions exist?

If someone could confirm this it would be appreciated, thanks.

I've been coding with the FXCM API now for several years without any major issues, but only just tried and noticed that it would appear that multiple/ simultaneous logins to the same username/account is not supported! Is that the case?

NB: I've even tried the connection via two independent inet providers/routers to verify it's not a setting on my modem/router prevent this!

i.e. I'm trying to run two instances of my program with different parameters/currency pairs, but the same login details. The programs logon onto my account at predetermined times; e.g. every 5mins (synchronised to align with a 5min chart). The call to e.g. 'oTradeDesk.Login' works in both instances, but then one fails to Verify may accountname as if the first instances has a lock on the 'Accounts' table (i.e. oTradeDesk.TablesManager.FindTable("Accounts")) and therefore when I loop through trying to find my AccountName and then obtain the AccountID & account balances on the 2nd instance, it fails and never finds my AccountName!

Any input would be appreciated, even to confirm this is not supported to verify I'm not doing anything wrong; But, a fix/solution would be preferred, thanks.

Here is the code:

Function VerifyAccountNoExists(oTradeDesk, iAccNum) As Boolean
'Get accounts table
Dim oAccTable
Dim boolMatch As Boolean
Dim oRow

On Error Resume Next

VerifyAccountNoExists = False

If (Me.dfConnection.Value = "DEMO") Then
iAccNum = Format(Me.dfAccount.Value, "00000000")
End If

Set oAccTable = oTradeDesk.TablesManager.FindTable("Accounts")
If Err.Number Then
Call fnLogErr("VerifyAccountNoExists", Err.Number & ": " & Err.Description & " " & "Cannot obtain access to '" + tblAccounts + "' table", 10)
Exit Function
End If

'Check column AccountName exists
If dbgCheckColumn(oAccTable, colAcctName) = False Then
Call fnLogErr("VerifyAccountNoExists", Err.Number & ": " & Err.Description & " " & "Column '" + colAcctName + "' not found in '" + tblAccounts + "' table", 10)
Exit Function
End If

'Check if the specified account number is in the accounts table
boolMatch = False
For Each oRow In oAccTable.Rows
If oRow.AccountName = iAccNum Then
gsAccountID = oRow.AccountID
gdBalance = oRow.Balance
gdEquity = oRow.Equity
boolMatch = True
Me.dfCurrentAccountBal.Value = gdBalance
Me.dfCurrentEquity.Value = gdEquity
Exit For
End If
Next

VerifyAccountNoExists = boolMatch

End Function


Private Function Login(sUserName, sPassword, sHostsPath, sTrading, ByRef oTradeDesk) As Boolean

Login = False

fnDisplayText ("Calling login function...")
On Error Resume Next
Call oTradeDesk.Login(sUserName, sPassword, sHostsPath, sTrading)
fnDisplayText ("Checking login status...")

If Err.Number Then
If (gbAutoTimerRunning = False) Then MsgBox Err.Number & ": " & Err.Description
fnDisplayText ("Login failed" & " - " & Err.Number & ": " & Err.Description)
Exit Function
Else
fnDisplayText ("Login succeeded")
Login = True
End If

End Function


'Call to login, then verify account function...:

If Login(Me.dfUsername.Value, gsPassword, Me.dfURL.Value, Me.dfConnection.Value, oTradeDesk1) = True Then
If VerifyAccountNoExists(oTradeDesk1, Format(Me.dfUsername.Value, "0000000000")) = False Then
MsgBox "Account number not found under this login."
Exit Sub

Is it possible to create DLLs with Visual C++ 2008 Express Edition?
Does somebody have experiences in that matters?
