DO you know how to deal with such an error? How to fix it?
Hi, your marketwatch data comes from your broker's feed. Look at File > Open an account and rescan your trading servers.

Never had this issue before with IC Markets or FBS which are the two brokers I use. Have you tried a different broker? I guarantee the problem will be fixed.

FxPro is garbage! Their spreads are whack and the execution speeds are the worst I've come across so far. Lag city :thumbdown:

First time this is happening in over 3 years with this account.

Looked at another PC at which the same MT4 account is used, does not have this problem - prices are OK. So, it must be a local problem in the assignment of prices vs symbols.

Anybody knows if there is some kind of cache in MT4 that i could clear?

Try this:

  1. Delete everything in C:\Program Files\Metatrader4\history
  2. If that doesn't help, completely uninstall MT4 and manually delete any leftover folders. Make sure you keep a copy of your Indicators and Templates. Then install MT4 from scratch.

Thanks for the interest Jimmy.

Tried to empty the history folder as Chu-Chu suggested. Didn't work. Same problem persisted.

I wouldn't like to uninstall and reinstall as I have some mql5 indicators and doing that would mean losing a licence. Thinking of copying over the subfolders from another working installation but I suppose it will not be that simple.
