I am struggling with something that supposed to be simple, the creation of my asset list.

I took advantage of
Quote
#define EXAMINE


inside the MT4/5 plugin to generate and check the list. Well even using the exact same values, zorro complains about MarginCost. In the asset list MarginCost is set to 0(zero)

Quote

2020.01.28 19:00:03.468 Zorro (EURUSD,H1) Examine XTIUSD Price 54.03000 Spread 0.11000
2020.01.28 19:00:03.468 Zorro (EURUSD,H1) XTIUSD Point 0.01000 Digits 2 PIP 0.01000
2020.01.28 19:00:03.468 Zorro (EURUSD,H1) XTIUSD LotMin 0.01 LotSize 100.00 LotAmount 1.00
2020.01.28 19:00:03.468 Zorro (EURUSD,H1) XTIUSD PipCost 0.01000 MarginCost 5.00


So my AssetList for pepperstone should be something like this:

Code

Yet, when I start zorro connecting to MT4 the asset.csv created on log folder comes with a complete nonsense Leverage Values and still zero for MarginCost

This is what I got.

Code

How should I trade with a 0,676 leverage? Can you please guys, give me some clarification on this?

Best Regards.

I did a fix

Code
brokerCommand(SET_PATCH, 16 + 32);
Leverage = 500;

That's not a real fix. Better fix either the leverage, or the margin cost in your asset list. If your broker API does not provide these parameters, or returns nonsense, you must get them from the broker's website.

jcl, tks for your reply!

That's exactly what I did. I used Spotware API and created a small python program to create the asset list.

For those search the list for pepperstone here it is.

Now in order to completely ignore data from broker should I use

Code
brokerCommand(SET_PATCH, 16 + 32 + 64);


Tks again

Even using this

Code
			brokerCommand(SET_PATCH, 16 + 32 + 64);
			printf("%f\n",MarginCost);


I still get a warning

Warning 054: EURUSD MarginCost 22-> 1000!

and the printed value for MarginCost is the one loaded for the server.

So what's the trick to make this brokerCommand(SET_PATCH, 16 + 32 + 64); works?

The broker command must be issued before you load the assets so that it does not override your asset list settings.

Tks Andrew!

Code
function run()
{
	brokerCommand(SET_PATCH, 16 + 32 + 64);
	assetList("History\\AssetListSimpleFx.csv");
	
	LookBack = 1;
	BarPeriod = 1440;
   
       StartDate = NOW;
	asset("EURUSD");	
	
	Margin = 4;
	enterLong();		
		
	
}


Can you please point where is the error in the code?

tks

This

brokerCommand(SET_PATCH, 16 + 32 + 64);

can be marked as a bug(MT5), or you must provide a functional example on the manual.

Using the command or not, seems to have the same effect.

I followed the instructions in the manual( that, in this case, is absent) and also sent an email to support using a paid ticket, but this does not work.

Super frustrating.

The major problem is not the broker supplying wrong values, but the EA making some crazy calculations. I did a small modification on the EA(MT5 bridge) and now I can get the correct values.

Code
            double dLotFactor = MarketInfo(Asset,MODE_MINLOT); // correction for different lot scale
            double dFactor = pointFactor(Asset); // correction for brokers with 5 digits
            double pipPosition = MarketInfo(Asset,MODE_DIGITS) - 1;
            string quotecur = StringSubstr(Asset,3);
            double price = MarketInfo(Asset,MODE_ASK);
            double pip =  pow(10,-pipPosition);
            double lotamount =  MarketInfo(Asset,MODE_LOTSIZE) * dLotFactor;
            double pipcost = lotamount * pip;
            double leverage = AccountInfoInteger(ACCOUNT_LEVERAGE);
            double margincost = (lotamount * price);
            if(StringLen(Asset) == 6)
              {

               if(StringCompare(quotecur,"USD") != 0)
                 {
                  string symboconvert = "USD" + quotecur;
                  double price2;
                  bool is_custom=false;

                  if(SymbolExist(symboconvert,is_custom))
                    {
                     price2 = MarketInfo("USD" + quotecur,MODE_ASK);
                     is_custom = true;
                    }
                  else
                     if(SymbolExist(quotecur + "USD",is_custom))
                       {
                        price2 = MarketInfo(quotecur + "USD",MODE_ASK);
                        is_custom = true;
                       }
                  if(is_custom)
                    {
                     pipcost = pipcost / price2;
                     margincost = margincost / price2;
                    }

                 }
              }
            margincost = margincost / leverage;
            double rollLong  = MarketInfo(Asset,MODE_SWAPLONG) * pipcost ;
            double rollShort = MarketInfo(Asset,MODE_SWAPSHORT)* pipcost  ;

            /////////

            double LotFactor = MarketInfo(Asset,MODE_MINLOT); // correction for different lot scale

            Factor = pointFactor(Asset); // correction for brokers with 5 digits
            arr[3] = PIP = pip;
            arr[4] = PIPCost = pipcost;
            arr[5] = LotAmount = lotamount;
            if(LotAmount == 0. && arr[0] > 0.)
               Print("Asset ",Asset," Lot ",MarketInfo(Asset,MODE_LOTSIZE)," Min ",LotFactor);
            arr[6] = margincost;
            arr[7] = rollLong;
