    I keep getting the same error. ATI is active, i tried without zeroes, without account name, tried to change instrument to MNQ MAR25. created text outside the folder and moved to incoming, tried from within incoming, always same error. never managed to open an order with oif.

    Hello avivgigi90,

    Thank you for your post.

    It looks like your oif file might be in the wrong format.

    Try renaming it to something like oif132.txt (instead of test132.oif.txt).

    Please let me know if this doesn't guide you in the right direction.

        Hello,

        May I confirm the AT Interface is enabled in the Control Center's Tools > Options > Automated Trading Interface menu?

        Has the OIF file been attached into the incoming folder?

        If yes, can you please provide the file here for review.

              oif files are supposed to be .txt, so that's correct. However, they're supposed be in the format oif*.txt where the asterisk can be any number.

              tst4.txt would not be a valid format. Try using something like oif1.txt or oif132.txt as previously mentioned.
