Generate a Problem Report from GTS Pro

In some cases we might ask you to provide a Problem Report. This report gives us the necessary information to investigate the problem you are having on the GTS Pro platform, and it includes:

  • The Log Files
  • Your Workspace

In order to generate a problem report, go to the login window > click on Change Connection Settings > General > Create problem report.

Press Save > Save it on your Desktop. Then, send an email to [email protected] and submit your query including the files.

Before generating the report, please make sure that there is a tick in Enable detailed system logging. It will always be ticked on unless you have ticked it off yourself. If it’s not there, please re-tick the box, then click Apply, log out from the platform, log in again and work with it for some time, until the problem occurs again. And only then generate the problem report.

GTS Firewall and Proxy Communications

GTS communicates with a set of remote servers in order to function properly.

Please find below the list of addresses and ports which may need to be added to your firewall/proxy setup to allow for outgoing communications on ports 1001, 443 and 80.

46.19.248.152:443 Authentication Server (SIM) (sim.logonvalidation.net)
46.19.248.153:443 Authentication Server (LIVE) (live.logonvalidation.net)
mitssimul.iitech.dk:1001/443 Trade Server (SIM)
mitslive.iitech.dk:1001/443 Trade Server (LIVE)
mitsweb.iitech.dk:443 Updates/Web reports

As a minimum requirement, in order to fully utilize the trading application, port 443 and port 80 need to be open for HTTPS and HTTP traffic respectively, to the servers listed above.

We also recommend that you clear the cache of your proxy to ensure that it is using the latest details.

Most users will not need to make any changes to their Network Environment for GTS to run optimally – typically, users behind a corporate firewall could be required to make changes in their network environment.

GTS – Error: “Failed to load the login page”

The Failed to load the login page error message indicates that you are unable to reach the login page of GTS.

Try the following troubleshooting steps:

  1. Make sure you don’t have a firewall or other security software on your PC or network which blocks access to the GTS login pages:
  2. Live: live.logonvalidation.net

    Simulation: sim.logonvalidation.net

  3. If you are using a proxy server, make sure it is properly set up – refer to this article and list of addresses which need to be added to your proxy setup to allow for both incoming and outgoing communications.
  4. Make sure you have Internet Explorer 8 or later installed – an error message will say “Internet Explorer is older than the minimum required version (IE8). Please upgrade to the latest available version.”
  5. Try Windows network troubleshooting.
  6. Right-click on the network icon in the Windows task bar, and choose “Troubleshoot problems” and follow the steps.

May 2018 New Products & Platform Updates

Real-time netting available from May

We are pleased to announce the release of real-time netting of positions in the positions list from May.

Real-time netting simplifies position management by dedicating your Positions list to open positions, moving closed and partially closed positions to a new Closed positions module until they are processed at the end of the day.

Real-time netting uses first in, first out (FIFO) netting where trades are closed in the order they were opened.

With real-time netting, you manage your net positions instead of individual trades. Individual trades can be seen in the new trades dialog.

Open and closed margin P/L

With real-time netting enabled, margin P/L is split into its open and closed components.

Take profit and stop loss

Take profit and stop loss orders cannot be attached to individual trades. Independent take profit and stop loss orders can be placed instead and managed separately — if you close a position, you must also manually cancel any orders relating to the position.

Enable real-time netting

Enable real-time netting on your account in the settings in all platforms. The feature can be enabled/disabled at any time.

Works with all instruments

Real-time netting is supported by all instruments – margin and cash-traded.

Works in all platforms

Real-time netting works in all platforms – GTS and GTS Pro.

Update to GTS Mobile Platform

During the month of May, a number of updates will be coming to the GTS mobile platform. The updates will include:

  • Redesigned watchlist, orders and position pages

    These pages have been redesigned in order to provide a simpler, cleaner layout, highlighting key data while providing quick access to more detailed information through the use of card navigation

  • Card navigation

    The introduction of cards that display contextually relevant data and actions, will make navigation even easier for the user

  • Updated trade and order tickets

    This design upgrade introduces a new, condensed ticket layout with more touch friendly navigation elements. This ticket upgrade will also be introduced on GTS for desktop and tablet in the near future

Discontinuation of stocks and options

Due to the heightened risk associated with options on rated 5 stocks and ETP (ETF, ETC and ETN) options that may themselves be leveraged, we have decided to discontinue support for selling rated 5 options on stocks and ETPs. The change will take effect on Tuesday, 15 May 2018. Clients with existing short positions will not be affected but will be unable to open new short positions.
