Risk and Oanda Forex Settings

[Newtrader101]

Can you help me to understand how to enable the risk settings so I can sim trade under my Oanda account?

Hello,

Thank you for your post.

Glad to assist. To resolve this, either the Risk template must be removed, or you may add a definition in the risk template for the instrument being traded.

To remove, go to the Control Center > Accounts tab. Right click the sim account > select Edit account > set Risk to None.

To add to the risk template, go to Tools > Risk. Select the template then select the lower right Add button to add an instrument.
See the below section of our help guide for more on setting risk settings.

Thank you. What should my risk be if I wanted to use a template?

Thank you for your reply.

We unfortunately do not have details on Forex risk settings available. I suggest mirroring setting of one available or removing the template.

Let us know if we may assist further.
