Something I have experienced for a long time but never asked as to why - I am unable to connect to my MB Trading account on the weekends or sometimes late at night during the week. (They do have periodic days when running tests or end of day analysis b/w 458pm and 502pm)

My exchange information in OT is correct, altho I don't think that is the issue. FX trading hours start on Sunday, approx. 5pm (EST) and I can not connect till Monday morning, somewhere around 8am - Sunday night is actually a favorite session of mine to trade.

Is this an issue or do other MBT users experience this as well?

Thanks,
Marc

Found out some info -

In case anyone was wondering -

MB Trading only allows access to your account through OmniTrader or VisualTrader during market hours. Just something I wasn't sure about but is confirmed. So, if trading FX - access to your account in OT or VT is available from Sunday 5pm to Friday 5pm. A bit of a nuisance but nothing that can't be overcome..
