Hi Guys.. I have just this week downloaded the AIMS indicators and using a demo account with GO Markets (Australia) ... seems to be a 30 pip restriction to place a pending open order if the market is less than 30 pips away. In the interests of close stops makes it a wee bit hard ... just wondering if this sort of restriction value is "normal"? How do I manage this?
BTW ... I've traded for years (stocks, writing options) and these AIMS indicators are outstanding! I can see a beautiful affair ahead ... a big thanks from here in the west. Cheers

Hi Dave
Welcome to AIMS! and thanks for the good words! AIMS truly is amazing! I love it!
I think you are counting the last digit too. A Pip in a 5 digit big/ask is the 2nd last value. In the following quote , EUR/USD 1.209(7)1, the number in the brackets is the pip, the one after is fraction of a pip. so GoMarkets may require a 3 pip cushion which is normal.
I hope this helps

Its does thanks mate ... seriously cool app this AIMS stuff is. The clarity produced by buy the AIMS boxes is outstanding. I've had to change my background screen colour from grey to white. My eyes had trouble with the font size on the horizontal line studies for setting pending entry and stop levels with the grey. As a consequence the AIMS boxes sit out beautifully too against the white background.
