We released server-side trailing stop loss support and improved a feature to specify SL, TP and pending order open price in relative units. ๐ŸŽ‰ Hope you'll like the update.
Our monitoring suggests that capacity of our current vint-hill region will end soon. Thus we will be launching a new region in New York shortly. The new region will have less than 1ms ping time to brokers located in NY.
We will be upgrading regions support in python and javascript SDKs to make transition transparent for your apps. For these SDKs you will be able to connect to all regions at the same time via a single MetaApi class instance.
We will also release regions support for Java SDK shortly. In Java SDK you will need to create separate MetaApi class instance per region.
We will announce upcoming SDK releases in our telegram channel.
Please start updating your apps now to make sure the transition will not break your apps. It makes sense to migrate the apps to the current latest SDK version at this point and then upgrade SDK one more time once we will release the pending update for the SDKs.
If you'll have any questions, please contact us via online chat.
We just released an improved API for creating MT accounts ๐ŸŽ‰. Now you can create both live and demo MT accounts via convenient REST API and select account currency via accountType field.
We just released support for MT manager API to beta ๐ŸŽ‰.
MT manager API can be used to access and manage MT servers and intended for use by brokers and broker partners with manager access to an MT server.
The new API is a cloud REST API at this point. User (MT account) and balance management features are included into this release. Docs are published at http://metaapi.cloud/docs/manager/
The expected cost of the new API is $250/month and a trial period of 1 week is available.
Please contact us via online chat if you want to test or use the new API.
As we informed you in one of the previous messages we are reaching capacity limit in our current vint-hill region.
Thus we've launched a new region in New York and will deploy new workloads in the new region by default soon.
Please make sure that your applications work correctly in situation when accounts are distributed across several regions.
- if you use javascript SDK, please upgrade to the latest SDK 18.0.0 and test your app with the new region as appropriate
- if you use python SDK it makes sense for you to wait until next major SDK release
- if you use REST API, please make sure your app can handle new region-specific API URLs and test your app with the new region as appropriate
- if you use Java SDK please upgrade to the latest SDK and test your app with the new region as appropriate
Feel free to contact us via online chat if you have any questions.
