Hi 158197794,

Use spot price/100000.

Best Regards,

Panagiotis

Can all currency pairs and indices use this method?

Hi 158197794,

This is not what Symbol digits means. Symbol digits indicates the digit where the minimum change in price can be expected. So for GBPJPY, the minimum change occurs at the third digit e.g. the price will be 171.215 or 171.216. It will never be 171.2154 or 171.2157. Values returned in the spot events are always specified in 1/100000 of unit of a price. Read more here.

so，if it is like this，What is the general way to convert a spot value to a double value?

how  can I   convert    GBPJPY    spot: 17121500     to  double :171.215?

Hi 158197794,

Why do you think that symbol digits is wrong?

Best Regards,

Panagiotis

because         double price = spot price  *10^(-Symbol Digits).

so   :   EURUSD    spot: 135381   double: 1.35381   Symbol Digits : 5          =>    135381 * 10 ^ (-5)  =  1.35381.

but ,   GBPJPY    spot: 17121500    double :171.215   Symbol Digits : 3      =>   17121500   * 10 ^ (-3)  = 17121.5    ???????????       Is this not wrong?

Hi 158197794,

Sorry I didn't notice the price well. I made a typo in my first answer, should have been baseSlippagePrice = 1.11335. In that case the slippage price should be baseSlippagePrice = 135.079

HI ,Panagiotis  

       I have found  another problem, in here,   

If  I buy  100k,   it show one pip value is  $9.38, so , This means when the price changes, 1 pips means 0.01. 

so, when I set market range to 5.0 pips,  This means that the specified range of prices is   129.697- 0.05    to  129.697+0.05.

but ，Follow the advice you gave above，If I use API, I must set baseSlippagePrice  = 129.697,and  slippageInPoints = 50.

so, in this parameter： slippageInPoints  ,  one point  = 10*  one pips ?

Hi 158197794,

The order is cancelled because you ser as baseSlippagePrice = 135.014 and slippageInPoints  = 40 which makes the limit 135.054 while the market price is 135.092 therefore the order is cancelled.

Best Regards,

Panagiotis

But I just asked you above：

for  GBPJPY   ,  if  I can accept any price opening between 135.029 and 135.129 ,  I can use baseSlippagePrice = 135.029 and slippageInPoints  = 50   ?

You said it is correct。

so , if  I can accept any price opening buy，between 135.014 and 135.094.

set baseSlippagePrice = 135.014 and     set  slippageInPoints  = 80?

Yes this is correct.

There seems to be some problems 。

just now ， GBPJPY  market price  ，ask = 135.092.   

and   I can accept any price opening buy，between 135.014 and 135.094. so I send a

 MarketRangeOrder,  and set  baseSlippagePrice = 135.014 and slippageInPoints  = 40 ,

but, I  receive  PROTO_OA_EXECUTION_EVENT， and  executiontype = ORDER_CANCELLED。

Hi 158197794,

Thanks for posting in our forum. You can use baseSlippagePrice = 1.11305 and slippageInPoints  = 30.

thank you .

so,  for EURUSD,  a  points = 0.00001?

for  GBPJPY   ,  if  I can accept any price opening between 135.029 and 135.129 ,  I can use baseSlippagePrice = 135.029 and slippageInPoints  = 50   ?
