MT5 A/B Book Configuration

To configure your A/B-book settings, go to Your Bourse Cloud Portal. On the MT4 bridges and MT5 Gateways section next to your MT5 gateway, click Manage → Configure A/B book. 

In this section, you will be able to configure A/B book rules by symbol/group and by account.

 A/B Book settings by symbol/group

 

On the MT4 bridges and MT5 Gateways section next to your MT5 gateway, click Manage → Configure A/B book. 

 

The hedging multiplier is the parameter that determines the assignment of an order between the books. The values must be in per cent in the range of 0 to 100. Thus, an order with a 100% hedging multiplier will be executed on A-book. An order with a 0% hedging multiplier will be executed on B-book.

* Note when configuring hedging multiplier other than 0 or 100, be sure that A-Book Volume Increment is configured properly. Otherwise, the unsupported volume can be sent to Liquidity Provider.

Symbol - symbol(-)s for which this parameter would be enabled. You can choose 1 symbol or All of them.

Min Volume and Max Volume - Volume values (in lots). All volumes above are out of condition. So they will be A/B booked according to the other rule.

Included groups are the list of groups for which this setting will be applied. You can add a group’s name using masks, e.g. real*. The parameter is case-sensitive. 

Excluded groups are the list of groups for which this setting will be applied. You can add a group’s name using masks, e.g. real*. The parameter is case-sensitive. 

A/B Book settings by account

You can also assign specific hedging multipliers to individual accounts.

The account is a trading account number in MetaTrader5.

 

The hedging Multiplier set up for an individual account will overwrite the group hedging multiplier, e.g. if you set a 50% hedging multiplier for account 1001 from group "realUSD" (group hedging multiplier is 100%), then orders from this account will have 50% hedging multiplier, the group setting will be ignored.
