even if I write it down there is no server in the server window. In other

my log on information I can't get it to run anyway because server is blanked
out. I've tried this on many forex brokers and the result is always the
same.

I feel like a fool for asking now. I think my mistake can be attributed to
using a shortcut to run it. I haven't had a problem with it if I open the
application through the wine directory. Even though I was giving the option to
open with wine with the shot-cut it apparently doesn't work properly. So
the simple fix was to find the exe in wine and run with wine.
There are some other issues that I have encountered so your link might help.
Currently some of the graphics in the custom indicators I use don't display
as they were intended. For instance some dot's in indicator windows show up
as a different graphic. Thanks again I will check out that link next.
