COINEXX USD MT5 ACCOUNT PERFORMANCE ISSUES
I have issues with the slow and variable performance of
Coinexx USD MT5 accounts, and will need to check why
they seem so variable and slow…
[EDIT] anything under 100 or so is an artifact, and should
be disregarded. Most times are in the 500 msecs or higher
range.
[EDIT2] most are Coinexx accounts, but there is an Evolve.Markets
and a FinProTrading account mixed in there…
[EDIT3] Yeah, some pretty serious delays/hangs on executions
in testing here. I hope it’s just “teething problems”… In a multi-account
system, the weakest/slowest account can affect overall reliability
and performance, so I guess I’ll need to code around this slow/hang
issue, which is a good idea anyway… I’ll report if I can get more
insight into Coinexx Live execution issues… Hope it’s just a
“speed bump” and they can get past it…
[EDIT4] Just thinking aloud here, maybe if my accounts can move
back to MT4 then that will largely resolve the execution issues…
Have generally found the MT5 integration to have issues… I’ll
see whether that’s an option for my accounts. Mixing in Forex
trading with all of the other trading instruments is likely the
complexity which is affecting performance; especially as the
equities markets are crashing/correcting yesterday and today…
[EDIT5] OK, abandoning MT5 and opening Coinexx MT4 USD
denominated accounts… Hope this process resolves many/all
of my issues. I’m glad they are offering MT4 as I hope it will
bypass all of the “explosion of instruments” which MT5 represents,
plus the MT5 terminal is a “memory hog” in NJ4X terminal pools…
[EDIT6] Their support is good, and I’m moving the MT5 balances
to MT4 accounts through “internal transfer”. Once that process
is finished, I’m expecting to get reliable performance… 
[EDIT7] OMG !!! The internal transfer is instant ! So the MT4
accounts are instantly ready to go… Starting to love Coinexx again !
[EDIT8] WOW !! Order placement times in the 70-80 msecs range,
so Coinexx MT4 a HUGE advantage in Forex, versus really terrible latencies
in the 500 msecs or much higher ranges, for MT5 terminals… So…
IF YOU TRADE FOREX, with Coinexx, do NOT use their MT5
terminal; rather, open the MT4 account type instead… Lesson Learned? LOL
[EDIT-final]
Some sample timings in milliseconds with MT4 connections Coinexx USD Forex:

I have a few friends who use them too. All pretty happy.
Where is this babypips list please? I have not seen it I don’t think.
Is this execution latency or strictly ticket confirmation latency?
Coinexx MT4 is now being promoted on their website and officially live… I made the switch over and I’m currently up and running MT4 live…

My recent experience with FinPro has not been acceptable. The MT4 loses connection many times an hour and the screen freezes frequently. This morning on EURUSD I placed a Sell Stop at 1.15605 for 33 std lots and got filled at 1.15555 for a 5.0-pip slippage on a Sell Stop! This is unacceptable. Yesterday my MT4 Terminal Profit showed a >$2k usd profit and when I closed the order it was closed for a $271.84 LOSS! In checking this company out it appears that a Mr. Gurbir Singh owns; FinPro FX Limited, FinPro (UK) Ltd, TurnkeyFX (UK) Ltd. and FinPro Trading UK Ltd was dissolved 9/25/2018. Their initial customer service response is outstanding but I have (3) open Support Tickets that remain unresolved. Their website is out of date and has many errors. I was told that they have a server in the US but they do not. I’m still looking for a good offshore broker. I’ll edit this post with how my withdrawal goes.
use the sliding green bar on the left side of your screen, slide all the way up and you will see a list of brokers that accept u.s. traders
I use the NJ4X API runtime platform, driven by custom Java
code. NJ4X Terminal Manager creates “pools” of separate
processes running MT4 and MT5 terminal.exe copies. This
allows for parallel processing, due to multiple MT instances logged
into the same trading account, as well as accessing multiple
trading account sessions…
MetaTrader is a “synchronous platform” so an order operation has to
complete before it can execute the next order operation…
So, using NJ4X and multi-threading, we allocate serial requests
to the “next available” synchronous MT process while other
MT terminal processes are busy executing their operations.
This means that with 4 terminals in the pool, then we can close
4 positions in the same time it would take to close just 1 position,
since the 4 terminals all work concurrently, in parallel, but each
is synchronous, so you must wait, for the operation to complete.
I just measure the time from starting an order operation, until
I get the synchronous confirmation that it’s completed… elapsed time.
So, in answer to your question, if it’s a Market Order, then there
isn’t confirmation until the order execution is fully completed, which
includes message transit time, queue time, aggregation time,
execution time, and confirmation, etc…
[EDIT] I just realized that if you use MetaTrader, and maybe you
write EA’s ( “Expert Advisors” ) then you are accustomed to the
idea that the EA’s order operations are synchronous. The NJ4X
platform “maps” ALL of MQL operations into Java and C# operations
which the high level control code uses. So the MetaTrader terminals
do have EA’s inside of them, but they are not written by me; rather,
these EA’s are part of NJ4X runtime platform, which perform the
API mapping from the high level operations into the MQL
operations inside the terminal platform (running as a server process).
So my “EA” trading logic is written entirely in Java, using NJ4X API mappings.

Hugosway has really peaked my interest lately. Anyone here using them and have anything to say?
This is really bad news… I have not been focussing intensively on
FinProTrading, but have had no issues with the trading. I’ve just
had more focus on Coinexx right now and MT5 terminal mess, which
just got cleared up today.
I’d suggest you move to TurnkeyForex.com which will perhaps
give you the support you want, and will give you great technical
performance, at least in Forex which is my only interest…

Was this around 11:55 am today? If so, it was a fast market around that time and you tried to trade 3.3M in single ticket.
My order was entered exactly at 10:01:48.295 EDST and the EURUSD was not moving fast at that time. Do you think 33 std lots is too big for them? If they are truly an ECN then that should not be a problem.

Ok… that is very strange then, I’ve had zero problems with Finpro in the past. I swing some pretty big ticket sizes but they are always spit to 5 different brokers simultaneously. 3.3M would definitely cause slippage but not 5 pips @ 10am unless there was a market moving 10am US news report released causing liquidity to temporarily disappear.
Platform freezes with most brokers also usually happen exclusively around major news release times.
