Hello, i am a manager of an friends & family account on interactive brokers. Actually i am using multicharts + IB Gateway.
I have a serious problem whit multicharts. When i tell this to multicharts support they tell me: the problem is interactive brokers. When i tell this to interactive brokers they tell me: the problem is multicharts.
The best way to understand is seeing a personal video on youtube. Please look for:

on youtube ( i can't submit links still on this forum)
When i buy 2 contracts the 5 for initial 5 minutes all is ok. After 5 minutes i can't see the real position. Multicharts does not show me the position of the friends & family account, but tws show me the position correctly.
Please can someone help me?
Can you help answer these questions from other members on NexusFi?
my advise? Leave Multicharts and transfer your operativity with tradestation...You will have all in one platform, data and broker so you don't have a problem
@nivi, why not run MC+Rithmic . I will work out any kinks you have and at the same time, show you how to use the free R-Trader software by Rithmic that would double confirm your positions in the market place or lack of positions.
Lastly, you can also set one account with fixed allocation so you do not have to trade into the account directly.
Thank you,
Matt Zimberg

I respect your decision, but there are a few of us around that do know Multicharts well. In lieu of the fact that you trade OPM, I suggest to think twice because API and software get updates, and you need to make sure that everything syncs.
In any case, I wish you well whatever you decide.

Thank you all for your answers. But I have a question, does anyone in this room manage a friends and family account of interactive brokers?
I need some account manager friends and family to see the personal video I recorded a few days ago.

Without seeing this video you can not understand what the problem is.
