By far the most common technical issue encountered by new webIRESS traders is commonly known as the “ticking clock error” this is simply and endlessly ticking clock that appears in your browser along with the words “installing software please wait”, however, sadly for many the wait is endless. The “ticking clock error” is a common problem and with an easy resolution, this error takes place because Sun Java 1.4 or better has not been installed. The problem can often be resolved through a quick Java update, or new installation from the Sun Java internet site. In some circumstances a new version of Java may have been installed yet this error still occurs, often this is as a result of a pop up blocker or anti virus software preventing your PC from accessing “webdf.iress.com.au“ and Port 6080 or 80, this can easily be corrected by allowing your firewall or anti virus program to access “*.iress.com.au” and port 6080 or 80. As a preventive measure you should always clear your browsers cookies and temporary internet files prior to making any changes to ensure that your old settings are completely deleted.

Most webIRESS problems are associated with Java or the security settings on your computer, however on occasions problems might develop because of your internet connection or LAN firewall settings. Testing connectivity to the webIRESS server is easy and should be done if you are unable to resolve you connection troubles through the installation of Java or firewall and anti virus permission changes. A simple telnet connectivity test can be run by following the instructions below:

1. Go to “Start” > Run or open a DOS command window.
2. In the Run dialog box or at the DOS prompt, type: telnet web.iress.com.au 6080
3. Press Enter.

A Telnet window opens with the message “Connecting to web.iress.com.au…”

If the connection is successful, the Telnet message will disappear leaving a blinking block or cursor in the top left corner of the Telnet window.

If a connection cannot be established you ought to contact your ISP or system administrator as it’s likely that ports 6080 or 80 are being blocked by your firewall.

These are some of the most widespread webIRESS problems, if after trying the above solutions you’re still unable to solve your webIRESS connection problem you ought to get in touch with your CFD broker who will be able to conduct more complex webIRESS troubleshooting.

IC Markets DMA CFDs On WebIRESS

October 8, 2010 — 11:48 pm

I’ve traded with every single one of the main DMA CFD providers in Australia and even now have trading accounts with a good number of them however all of my accounts are now dormant as I’ve moved the majority of my funds over to IC Markets. I heard about IC Markets approximately eight months ago, initially I was reluctant to shift from my current broker as I was being charged quite competitive commission rates. After speaking to an IC Markets sales rep who I found enormously helpful I was only 50% converted. It wasn’t until he rang me back and offered me a commission rate that I couldn’t refuse that I finally switched and to date it has been the best move that I have ever made.

I have been dealing with IC Markets for about six months now, as I am mostly a day-trader and scalper they got me onto their webIRESS Plus trading platform which appears to be a great deal faster than the standard webIRESS trading platform that I was use to with my other provider. One thing that I’ve observed about the webIRESS Plus trading platform is that it offers several more order varieties than my old webIRESS. The layout of the platform also feels a lot better that webIRESS, trade windows do not have that old boxy look but are well rounded and smooth, it is like comparing my old Nokia to my Iphone.

Aside from the visual and speed aspects, the platform appears to have a few more order types than my old webIRESS, though I’m never going to use most of them, however it is good to know that they are available.

However the trading platform is not everything, what really made me move across to IC Markets was their service and their DMA CFD commission charges which totally blew me away when I heard about them. As I am a professional day-trader I do allot of scalping, and unlike a number of the market makers out there IC Markets like my business, I guess it is because they’re a DMA CFD broker and hedge all my trades. Over the past six months I have saved over $100,000 in commission alone, rather than going to my CFD broker it has gone into my trading account which is where it belongs.

One thing about these guys that I didn’t get from my other DMA CFD providers was that that they allow me to trade DMA CFDs on every single ASX listed stock and they all can easily be traded on leverage, not 100% margin that my other provider offers me. They have also given me access to a larger short sell list than what they offer the majority of people, my account manager informed me that this was because I was a high volume trader and it was just part of the service. The good thing about having a bigger variety of short sellable DMA CFDs means that I can short sell a few of the more speculative mining stocks the majority of people can not short, meaning more trading opportunities.

All in all I’m glad that I made the move to IC Markets and over the past six months not only have I saved a heap of cash I’ve traded more than ever because my commission rates are really low. As always before you make the change you should do your research and download a few demo platforms to find which DMA CFD broker fits you best, though I can certainly vouch for IC Markets.

DMA CFD Trading Platforms – Which One Is Best?

August 31, 2010 — 1:00 pm

Direct Market Access CFDs or DMA CFDs are one of the most transparent varieties of CFDs available. DMA CFDs have the advantage of enabling participation in the underlying market of the share over which the Contract for difference is based. DMA CFDs are reasonably new and have only become popular in Australia during the last few years however, they continue to become prevalent as traders realize the transparency offered by this sort of Contract for difference.

DMA CFDs have considerable advantages over the more traditional over-the-counter (OTC) kind in that they allow the trader to take part in the opening and closing phases of the market. Having the ability to trade in these phases of the market offer major advantages to traders as they can obtain the opening or closing price of the day. Traditional over-the-counter CFDs don’t permit the trader to take part in these phases of the market thus preventing the trader from being able to obtain some of the best prices of the trading day. In spite of the disadvantage of not having the ability to take part in the opening and closing phase of the market, over-the-counter CFDs do have the benefit of allowing the trader to buy or sell volumes that may not be obtainable in the underlying market during standard trading hours.

DMA CFDs have become accepted amongst day traders and scalpers. The key reason for their attractiveness is because DMA CFD providers allow CFD trades to flow onto the underlying market in the stock on which the CFD is based allowing active traders to take advantage of fairly small price movements. Using DMA CFDs also allows day traders to get set at the opening price at the beginning of the day and clear their positions during the closing price during the closing match phase.

One of the drawbacks of DMA CFDs is that in general DMA CFD companies do not offer guaranteed stop loss orders. Guaranteed stop loss orders have the benefit of permitting the trader to manage their downside risk. Slippage often takes place when using stop-loss orders, guaranteed stop-loss orders eliminate this risk completely.

It’s important to be conscious that prior to opening a CFD account you must remember that when trading DMA CFDs you will required to deposit a larger initial margin amount than the over-the-counter (OTC) variety. In addition to higher margins many DMA CFD providers will be unable to offer you CFDs over indices and foreign exchange contracts due to these contracts being over-the-counter in their very nature.

There are actually relatively few platforms available that offer DMA CFDs, the most popular platforms in the Australian market is webiress. WebIRESS offers the speed and reliability day traders and scalpers need along with a range of different order types including trailing stop-loss orders. Another popular platform is ProDeal, ProDeal offers all the advantages webIRESS offers with the additional benefit of being able to trade over-the-counter CFDs from the same platform enabling traders to trade CFDs on indices and forex from their DMA CFD account.

It is important that before making the commitment to begin trading DMA CFDs you recognize the risks connected with the product. Like all geared products trading CFDs offers substantial rewards on the other hand there can be risks involved that if not managed properly can lead to losses larger than the investors initial deposit.

Before picking a DMA CFD provider you should make certain that you trial their demonstration platform and study their Product Disclosure Statement which outlines in detail the fees and charges, provides trading illustrations, and outlines the sorts of CFDs offered along with the risks and benefits of buying and selling CFDs. You should make sure that the Contract for difference provider you go for can offer you the platform and products that fit your trading strategy.

WebIRESS DMA CFDs

July 23, 2010 — 5:18 pm

Direct Market Access or DMA is the term often used to explain a type of CFD which has become prevalent within the Australian market, these are often called DMA CFDs. With DMA CFDs your deal is passed directly through to the underlying stock market without dealer or market maker involvement, this means that orders are executed at the real market price in a timely manner without re-quotes. Trading DMA CFDs is much like buying and selling shares over the internet.

DMA CFDs offer absolute order transparency. Traders are able to participate in the market depth of the underlying security over which the CFD is quoted by joining a bid or offer queue and also the open and closing auction phases of the market. DMA CFDs offer all the benefits of buying and selling shares with the added leverage that CFDs offer.

Buying and selling DMA CFDs is very similar to buying and selling shares, traders are able to hit the bid or offer or join the buy or sell queue. DMA CFD traders have major advantages over traders using market made CFDs in that they have got the potential to enter and exit trades at superior prices.

When trading DMA CFDs you’ll be required to subscribe to exchange data, the cost of data varies from exchange to exchange. Once subscribed you’ll have access to real time prices and market depth allowing you to see the number of buyers and sellers at each different price level and take part in order queues enabling partial fills and superior execution.

One drawback of DMA CFDs is that guaranteed stop loss orders are not offered, however these are not always necessary as generally DMA CFDs traders use options to manage their downside risk however these are often overly complicated for the newbie trader.

When trading DMA CFDs traders have the ability to be price makers meaning that as soon as an order is placed it will be transmitted to the real market and can affect the value of the stock on which the Contract for difference is based.

Trading Contracts for difference using a Direct Market Access (DMA) model is best suited to frequent traders that trade on an intra day basis. Frequent traders will find that Direct market access CFDs will enable them to buy and sell freely without dealer intervention and obtain better prices when buying and selling. DMA CFDs are also suited to active day traders and scalpers who are looking to benefit from small price changes quickly.

There are a number of CFD platforms that you can trade DMA share CFDs on, the two most common platforms in Australia are webIRESS and ProDeal. Both platforms allow traders to participate in the market depth of the DMA CFD on which they are trading. The webIRESS platform is also very popular within the share trading community, largely due to diversity of order types on offer, while ProDeal is extremely popular amongst CFD traders, this is because of the broad range of CFDs on offer and its advanced charting functionality.

It’s important to note that before commencing to trade DMA CFDs you consider whether this type of CFD fits your trading style, choosing the incorrect CFD type will affect the success of your trading system.

Understanding Contract For Difference Order Varieties

July 12, 2010 — 3:03 am

There’s a lot of different Contract for difference order types, the majority of which are hybrid varieties of the two main order types market and limit. A market order is simply an order designed to trigger the buying or selling of a Contract for difference at the current market price. A limit order is an order which enables you to specify the buy price or sell price of a Contract for difference. In the case of a buy limit order the purchase price would be below the present market price and in the case of a sell limit order the price would be higher than the current market price.

Limit Orders
Limit orders are used to enter or exit positions. As an example, as a way to enter a long CFD position, you can use a limit order to buy the CFD if the price trades at an exact price or lower. In general limit orders can only be placed during the times specified by the exchange on which the instrument the CFD is based on is listed. There are however some CFD providers which will permit you to place limit buy orders outside the hours specified by the exchanges, these CFD providers will hold your order off-market and place the order automatically when allowed to do so by the exchange. Which means you will be able to enter the market the next day if the CFD trades at or below the price of your order.

In some other cases, you can exit a long CFD position with a limit order to sell. Assume that the price of the CFD is $1.25 and you are in the market to buy. You set a limit sell order at your profit target which is $1.75. If the price rises to or exceeds the $1.75 mark, your CFD position is going to be closed at your profit target.

Stop Orders
Orders which are used to buy CFDs when the price trades at or above a limit price are know as CFD stop orders, orders which you use to sell the CFDs during a time when the price trades at or below the limit price are also known stop orders. The same as limit orders, stop orders can be utilized to enter or exit a position. If a trade goes against you, stop orders are usually used called “stop loss” orders and are used to exit a position. To illustrate, assume you have bought CFDs at a price of $1.50 and the stop loss order is set at $1.25. If the price of the CFDs falls to or below $1.25, you will sell the CFDs and will exit the position. You can use stop orders for taking profits on trades also, lets assume that in the example above you set your stop order at $1.75. If the price of the CFDs rise to $1.75, you’ll sell the CFDs and exit the position, stop orders utilised in this way are often called “take profit” orders.

Stop orders can be utilized not just for exiting positions but also for getting into new positions. To illustrate, let’s say the current price of a CFD is $1.50 and you placed a stop buy order at $1.80. Your position will be opened if the price rises up to and above $1.80. Similar logic applies should you wish to short sell the CFD at a price below the price at which it’s currently trading. Using the example above if you wished to open a short position when the price falls to $1.30 you would place your stop sell order at $1.30. Should the price fall to $1.30 your short position will be opened.

If Done Orders
“If done” orders are a specific form of order that allow traders to activate an order only after another order is filled. To illustrate, if you place a limit order to enter a CFD position but do not want the stop loss order to be activated until the position is opened you would use an “if done” order. Using “if done” orders allows you to set a limit order to enter a CFD at a target price and set your stop loss or take profit order to be placed before your limit order is even filled. Using “if-done” orders means that you will not have to continually monitor your portfolio to check whether your limit order is filled.

Order Execution
Not all CFD providers execute orders in the same way. Some providers may require that before your stop loss is filled a sufficient amount of underlying stock is traded at the price of your stop loss order. On the other hand, some providers might require only that the underlying stock was traded at the price to in order for your order to be filled.

You’re able to learn more about CFDs, and the way they work by downloading our free CFD education. Bear in mind, before you start using some of the more complicated order types mentioned above you should understand how they work and whether or not they fit your online trading trading strategy.
