    TS to NT can't convert FX order quantity

    Apologies if this has already been answered in another thread, but I couldn't find anything similar on Forex trades.
    I'm testing the e-mail interface between TS and NT, and my automated TS strategy mails are being received OK but always generate the same two types of message. Example:

    Tradestation - Strategy Filled Order for GBPUSD: Sell 30'000 GBPUSD @ Market on account(s) 'sim101'
    Tradestation - Strategy Filled Order for GBPUSD: unable to convert order quantity '30'000'

    Is NT expecting a number of lots e.g. 0.3 as these are mini-lots?
    I've tried both Submit market order on TS fill and Submit "as is".

    Thanks for any help.

    Right, the problem is the ' sign in the qty. NT expects a plain number like 30000. However, we'll see what could be done to address this issue for next regular update. Until then you could try changing your window setting so 30000 would be formatted without the ' sign.

      Thanks for the reply, Dierk. I changed the Windows setting to remove the digit grouping symbol, but TS still sends the amount with the ' character to delimit thousands. Does TS have to be re-installed for the Windows setting to take effect?

      Thanks in advance for your help.

        Dave,

        We are not sure since we are not TS experts. You could try a reinstall. Thank you for your patience for the next update.

          Thanks for your reply, Josh. I was hoping to avoid a re-install of TS, but it looks like the only option until the next NT update. Any news on when thê next update will be released?

          Thanks
          Dave
