What every good ticket should include
- What you expected. Say what should have happened.
- What actually happened. Say what the receiver did or did not do.
- The affected connection. Include the source and receiver platforms.
- The symbol or symbols. Keep it specific.
- The exact time and timezone. This helps support line up the incident window.
- What you already tried. Avoid back-and-forth on obvious first steps.
A practical format
Subject: Keep it specific, for example: Trades not copying on MT5 to TradeLocker.
Body: Include expected result, actual result, platforms, symbol, time, timezone, and attachments.
What to attach
Simple example
Receiver should open the same trade as the source, but did nothing. Affected path: MT5 to MatchTrader. Symbol: GOLD. Time: 09:14 EST. Already checked enabled connection and symbol mapping. Attached support bundle and incident log export.
