Handling of Controlled and Clearing acount types
Hi,

When a CollateralReport message arrives it contains the account type.
What is the exact meaning of these account types:

Code:
IFixDefs.FXCM_ACCT_TYPE_CONTROLLED, and 
IFixDefs.FXCM_ACCT_TYPE_CLEARING
How should such account types be handled provided that we're using LAMM account to control a set of 'ordinary' trading accounts?

We saw some sample code in the JavaTradingStation, but would like to get more information on this.

Best Regards,

Hi,

Those are 2 types of accounts which you are not allowed to send trades for, you should probably not see these in LAMM.
