I have tried entering trades through exchange.marketcetera.com but they do not get filled. On Photon, the order status is PEND NEW.
my broker settings are posted below
I do realize that on the marketcetera webpage, it states that port should be 7001 and FIX should be at 4.2, but when i set the metc broker settings to this, the broker is not available
Trades stay in Pending New if your ORS is not connected successfully to the simulated exchange (or other exchange). Based on your conf above, you're connecting to the quote feed. Change the port to 7001 and the begin string to FIX.4.2.
Thanks for the quick reply. I have made the changes you listed above and the problem is that there are no choices now on the Broker drop down box. So when I enter an order now, I get a broker unavailable error.
