Hold connection over weekend - FXCM

[MichaelAlexander]

Hello, I am having the same problem. I have a couple of strategies which hold longer then a couple of days. I am using FXCM and during weekend maintenance I can not hold the connection.
Does anyone has a work around on the problem?
When I re submit the open order with immediately submit then the Stop loss and take profit are rejected during the weekend.
I have send a feature request to solve this rejection. (tracking ID# SFT-4389 for this request for synchronization orders to only be submitted after hours have begun.)
When you have the same problem please vote for the request

Hello MichaelAlexander,

Thank you for your post.

When weekend maintenance occurs, there would not be a way to maintain the connection as it is shut down on the FXCM side and there is nothing available for NinjaTrader to connect to. You could consider tracking when the maintenance occurs and programming your strategy to exit prior to the maintenance period - however, the strategy will still be stopped if there is no connection available. We have recorded your vote previously for SFT-4389 and are continuing to track interest.

Please let us know if we may be of further assistance to you.
