My current broker is not happy with my scalping technique. My EA sending too many requests to broker server (about 4 request per seconds).
Any idea which broker can handle this stuff?
thanks,
Aladar

Funny, there's a GO Markets add on my screen right now, says 'all Ea's accepted'.

What broker do you use?
4 requests is quite high - even if your broker accepts it, you would probably experience some slippage.

Q Do you have any restrictions on scalping?
A No, we do not have any special policies or restrictions on scalping.
I use them and have had no issues.

I'm wondering how the heck you make money of that. I love the idea of high frequency trading, that's what computers are for, but 4 a second...dang...
Slavo, look me in the eye mate and tell the truth - did you crash the euro?

these brokers have no problem with scalping
FXCBS
the collective
ATC brokers
MB trading
i listed them according to my preference. FXCBS might suite real scalping because they offer no commission accounts..the commission is added to the spread and STILL thier spreads are TIGHT...bad thing NO MICRO LOTS, LARGE SWAP RATES
the collective accepts micro lots and pure ECN feeds and best of all NO COMMISSION..but thier demo platform tends to close large negative floating trades too early...there is nothing so cool about thier spreads..just normal
ATC brokerS and MB trading allow scalping of all sorts..but dont offer no-commission accounts..commissions affect scalper's profits..
i hope this helps!😎

FXCBS really?
Forex peace army have some bad reviews on them and I used to have an account with them and closed it as I felt that they were cheating me on several trades. I'd be wary about putting large sums with them.

Would you mind to post about this issue there?

This way a bigger audience would be aware of it and GoMarkets would be forced to put the cards on the table😇
Thank you!

Hey pc8multifx!
At my issue, my EA was placing too many orders in high frequency ( at least 1 trade on every new tick or more )
I've done some research, any MQL server is designed way that can execute only 1 request at the time. All others reuests are basicly queued up for execution and caused to slow others from trading.
I didn't know about the limitation of MQL server and EA performed excellent on Demo accounts, so I've put my system 'Slavo Fast' on real account and got awesome returns in 2 days, but unfortunately got contacted by broker to stop and 'fix' my EA 😀
In my case broker is right, I'm bad... I was 'clogging' their system.
If you look my system, Total trades are almost 30k in few days :) I know this is not 'standard' trading, but it turned out it's profitable. This system works way..... the more trades allows me to calculate probability more precisely and set up TP/SL for hundreds open trades. Unfortunately this system is not usable on any MQL broker.

Thx Slavo. Did u 'fix' the EA?😉
you could open an account with dukascopy since they now allow as little as 1K USD accounts and use the mt4->jforex bridge which is free ... that way you trade your EA on demo and the trades get copied to dukascopy ... I saw your biggest trade is 100 pips so that might work for you if you don't close trades with ~1 pip ...

I'm always a little cynical about people who register and then straight away their first post is a recommendation for a broker.

ROFL. It's too many years in this game that makes one cynical. Anyway, I haven't had a problem with Oanda but I'm talking manual scalping not that EA stuff.
