1.8Trading account capabilities

The features which the framework can provide depend on the capabilities of the trading back-end/account which MyTrader is logged into. For example, some accounts support trailing stops whereas others do not. Some accounts can only provide the historic trades on the account, not the historic credit movements.

Perhaps most importantly, some accounts support "hedging" - a buy order and then a sell order for the same market create two separate open trades in that market rather than cancelling each other out - whereas other accounts are "netting" and only ever report a single net position (or no position) in a market.

You can inspect what the back-end system supports using the features information in the Framework.Account.
