Dear readers,
It would be a huge feature to add a custom magic number mapping so only specified magic numbers will be copied to the slave or send from the master.
I've been working with the FXblue copier so far. But because of the migration of TFF to Ctrader I started using cMAM as copy trading software. I've been very happy with the product but this is one of the best features of fxblue that I've been missing in cMAM and here's why.
I only optimize EA's in which every setting is customizable. I run 108 optimalizations every 2 months and out of this I take about 150 set files which I run live on demo accounts. I've this running on 2 accounts because of the max of 99 charts on 1 metatrader 5 account. Out of these set files I take between 10 and 12 sets I run live on my funded and challenge accounts. But you can understand how dramatic it would be if I would use this account as master account to copy to an ctrader slave account without the filter of magic numbers.
The only fix for now is using the fxblue copier to copy to a new mt5 demo account using only the magic numbers I want for this specific portfolio and account. This would mean a drastic increase in mt5 terminals on my server because every slight difference in a portfolio would need a new mt5 account. This would also mean an increase in execution time and in most cases a worse entry because it now has to be copied between 2 accounts before it reaches the challenge or funded.
For every user like me which is running a large amount of set files on 1 account this feature is very important. I would love it if you could implement this! Please let me know if this is doable or if you've any other suggestion. My suggestion would be to implement a custom magic number file just like the custom symbol mapping file.
I read the complete guide and I looked through the complete cMAM application but I've not been able to find any solution for now. Please let me know if I looked over anything and a solution already excist.
Kind regards,
