Looks like TC are supporting MT4/5 again... I reckon it's not too cheeky to ask for a discount if they want us to switch back... Lol 😀

Hello Everyone. I have been doing some research on IP addresses and how it can affect your prop firm challenge or funded account. When you use a trade copier, your trades are being executed from the IP address that your trade copier is working on. If you are or have been using Traders Connect, you will be using their IP address. On their site, they say that the IP addresses are dedicated. Now you would be led to believe that the IP address your copier was on was dedicated to you, but that is not the case. I messaged them on Saturday and asked them if the IP address was dedicated, or if it was shared or if it was dynamic (changed at all). This is an important considerations for some prop firms and you should really check their IP address policy. This is what they said: - "The IP will not randomly change, but it will be shared with other users" So, this means that if you have been using Traders Connect and you have not been flagged for using a shared IP address, then this logically means you can also use the Duplikium service that also uses a static shared IP address. The cost for the static shared IP is €2 per account. However, by default, when you order your copiers from Duplikium, you get the STD free IP attribution which is a shared dynamic IP address which does change. You will need to check if your prop firm is OK with this. It probably will be, but I know of some that won't be. Looking at FTMO's IP policy, they say that shared dynamic or shared static IP addresses are acceptable. However, looking in to the IP address issue is going down a rabbit hole with ambiguous detail. For example, FTMO don't allow IP addresses that mask your location, but if the trade copier IP address location is in Germany and you are in the US, then the trade copier address will be masking your location, which is against their rules. Whether or not FTMO or any other prop firm actually monitors at this level, I am not sure. I did message Duplikium and went in to detail about IP addresses and asked them if they were aware of any users having IP issues with their prop firms as a result of using Duplikium. This is what they said: -

You've probably seen the email from Traders Connect about halting replication on the MetaTrader platforms. 🙁 I know it's out of our control and there's other solutions available but does anyone know why this has happened? No point jumping to another copier if the same will happen there...

Hi everyone, The updated automation systems are now live inside the course. You’ll see two new pages: one for Commodities and one for Forex. This video covers exactly what to do with the new information and what the updates are. HERE: https://www.loom.com/share/92f1ed17396b4c53983dc1bef4041f0c?sid=be964a3d-ce8d-4206-bdb6-6fe6b4e189b2 Each system has: - Login & password info - Symbol mappings - Risk settings - Full performance breakdowns for the last few months - Details on each strategy and the updates we’ve made The setup process is exactly the same as before — just use the new credentials. If you’re on Duplikium, remember you might need to map the symbols manually (GC/MGC etc). If you're on a prop firm or just starting out, I recommend running at 50–75% risk for the first week. Any questions, just drop them below or message me directly on WhatsApp. – Euan P.S. The Automation backtester will have some lag time with updates. Please allow a further 1 week - 10 days for the backtester to show.

Hi all, if you're using Audacity you should have received an email about them changing hosting providers and that we need to close all open trades by 20:00 UTC tomorrow, Friday 30th. I haven't got anything open at the moment so I've just switched off copy trading to that account inside Traders Connect. I'll lose a trading day tomorrow but I don't want to risk having an open trade in drawdown force-closed tomorrow night. Of course, Sod's Law states that I'll miss out on a winner so the rest of you guys who don't use Audacity should be happy! 😂
