Hi,

The coming new FxTrek IntelliChart include an auto trading feature using FXCM Java Trading API to send orders to FXCM. You can use Intelliscript to trigger the auto trading. You can also manually update your positions and stop/limit orders. You can also place market orders manually from chart. The positions will be marked on the chart. You can print out that chart with additional comments to keep good trading journals.

This feature is finished and under an intensive final testing phase. If you'd like to test it, please email me or support@fxtrek.com for a demo package.

By using the FXCM Java Trading API, IntelliChart will have a deep integration with the FXCM account. I'll email you the demo testing package link in 1 or 2 week. We need some setups in the adminstration to form an advanced users testing group.

For your case, if you want to use Order2GO COM API, there are good alternatives. IntelliChart also writes your Intelliscript alerts into a local text file. You go to IntelliChart working directory, then AlertLog directory. You'll find those files. The currency pair, buy/sell action, date and time are all written in the files. You can write simple VB codes to parse those files to get all of the infos you want.

Intelliscript also sends the alerts through email. You may also parse the email and send your order through Order2GO COM API.

I hope those suggestions can help you.
