Not compatible with Oanda?

[ttorus1]

I am using Oanda as my broker and they only use MT4. Unfortunately it appears that the MT4 files I have been provided is not compatible as represented, while MT5 does work but not with Oanda. I need the setup files for MT4. A little help here please!

I had kind of the same issue. But it was with forex.com broker and couldn't get my forex.com accounts to work on the mt5 program I already had installed. I kept thinking it was setting and all kind of things. I originally started a demo with Oanda broke and not positive exactly where I originally downloaded mt5 from. (Guessing Oanda's website) So when I opened a live and demo accounts with forex.com I tried using it with the mt5 program that was already installed on my computer. It wouldn't let me do trades or sign into any new forex.com accounts. I had to go to forex. Com and download their mt5 programs from the website. Now I'm able run Galileo fx on my forex.com accounts. What I'm saying is make sure you downloaded mt4 or 5 from the brokers website you intend to use.

I have same issue with Oanda and Galileo FX- contacted support from both sides and they point to each other, nobody's fault. How I can fix this issue? I purchase this on December 31 2024. Thanks

Hey, guys you must be provided with Galileo FX_Pro_MT4.ex4, if you have any other version your name might differ. And if this file is not working with your existing installation, please install mt4 from their official website then, login with your broker credentials via add account option in mt4. Once you are sure that your MT4 is working with your broker (verify it with an order on a demo account), then you can install galileo ea via placing that file in the appropriate directory please refer to installation instructions.
If this doesn't solve it you have to reach out to our support at the provided email.
Thanks.

I did download again this file and made a fresh installation, sign in correctly and is still stop working. I reach out to support many times, send them screenshots about all my settings, they do not know what is going on. Oanda, the broker I use are saying I'm not first one with this issue for Galileo FX, being incompatible. Thnaks

Hello T, M and A
What do you (try to) trade? Currencies or stocks?
I trade stocks/shares and found out, that it's not possible with OANDA.

Thank for this. Actually is makes sense what are you trying to trade exactly?
Please describe and give some more details like the platform you are using how you installed mt4/mt5? if you are having mt4 did you try mt5 or vice versa?

Thanks

Hey guys,

The MT4 file inside the Galileo FX folder might not be working properly due to Admirals not using MT anymore, we are working on updating that.
You can download MT4 directly from OANDAs website, from your account page.

As for OANDA saying it's not compatible, are we sure we have a MetaTrader account opened with OANDA?

 

[Fritzvanderlaar]

Yes Chris,
OANDA- loaded MT5 proofed not to be suited for Galileo FX automatic stock/share trading.
One can trade stocks/shares with OANDA, but one has to input the purchase-orders manually.
The flaw is in the ONADA-stock-data (see enclosure). Tick-boxes for information Galileo FX uses are open.

I download the MT4 from Oanda website. I download the latest file for Galileo FX, install both correctly. After I set up the bot for EURUSD with the inputs form Galileo website, the bot starts trading and stop. I see under Journal FIFO violation. I'm not using more than one currency to trade in the same time, I have enough funds (is losing couple cents each time I try). I did test different recommendations, and ALL are losing money besides EURUSD. It must be Galileo FX inputs that doesn't work with Oanda restrictions. I think this is the reason Oanda is saying is not compatible. The inputs you recommend on your website, need to be modified or specify what broker is compatible when you sell the product. Can you send me some Inputs I can use with MT4 and Oanda? (Support scheduled a 15 session on February 10, after exchange countless emails with screenshots of my settings). I like to do some real troubleshooting. Thanks

No need, Chris.
As I have Just2Trade as my stock-broker now, which works very well.
Don't use OANDA anymore.
