| | When a C2 order to buy TFSZ8 (Russell Emini Dec 08) was sent this morning I got a "General Settings Problem" and "No Security Definition has been found" messages.
Double clicking on the symbol the problem is that under Futures Details no setting are established for Margin, nor tick size, nor Tick Size Dollar. Clicking "Get settings from Broker" returned a message saying that "could not get settings from broker"
Do I need to enter those settings manually, and if so where do I obtain them??
An auto-trade order for the ESZ8 (S&P500 emini) was auto-traded successfully, and I did not have to manually enter the Margin, tick size, etc specifications for that contract.
What do I need to do to allow Trader68 to successfully trade the securities indicated by C2 ??
Thanks
Stan |

(Note: Stan's question was answered directly through our support email at support@trader68.com)
The latest version 2.1.2 of Trader68 has been updated to include all of the symbols that require translation between Collective2 and Interactive Brokers. We will continue to update Trader68 when new symbol translations are required for trading.
Thanks,
Trader68 Support. |

What is the C2 Score?
Collective2 rates every trading advisor in its database and assigns a score between 100 and 1000.
In general, a rating above 500 is good. A rating above 700 is excellent.
Collective2 Ratings are recalculated daily based on the entire performance history in our database. The exact formula we use is proprietary, but there are several key variables that go into the Collective2 Rating. One of the most important factors is the length of time we have been able to observe the performance of the trader. Another key factor is the amount by which the trader over-performs or under-performs the S&P 500 index. Finally, the choppiness of the trader's results is taken into account. Certainly a more consistent trader will be rated more highly than a trader with erratic results.
