{quote} It has been up until now, I did what you said created the folders, sent the install to Blackbull 1 folder, all went to plan, which isnt in the program folder. Ive never had this problem before, when I created the short cut the icon was on the toolbar already after the install, so I went to properties lime you said and added the /portable, that worked out fine.
Are you using Blackbull ? That's a surprise since you are in the UK are you not ? Chat anytime at EAG by the way.

Are you all up and running now ? I'm in Australia so am off to bed. Cheers.

Strat 01 picking up this week. I suspect all the fuss in USA is not helping. Strat 05 and Marty doing very well tho'. Read the numbers.

Hi Guys

Managed to get my Mt4s back up and running, thanks to Alto Traders help, loading the history was the key.

Started on Monday

Please add day-of-week filters (Monday to Sunday) in the panel settings to restrict initial order opening per trading pair. This won't affect additional trades. Please make sure to implement this in the next version.

My research shows profitability varies by weekday for initial orders. This filter can prevent large DD.

Please add it as soon as possible.

Would this work?

Hi just a quick question, how do I set on the manager a session time and then implement it, do I still have to have the trading 24 hour button on.

Thanks

Hi Steve - I would think if you don't enable Trade 24 Hours then it will trade the times you set in the EA. I expect.

Click the "Session 1" or Session 2" label just above the time you set in the settings on the Manager.

Don't turn on 24 hours unless you want to trade 24 hours.

Yes. Great. Looking forward to the next version.
Please ensure that only the initial order is restricted. Additional orders are not subject to this limitation.

First post: Running on a demo standard account since July 21, 2025, using Strategy 4. Lot size 0.01, maximum spread 3.0. Includes the XAUUSD pair. Looks promising.

Hi Gene

I have set the session 1 to start trading at 8.00am GMT and it still says trading closed, even though it is now 8.30am here.

I have tried changing the session time 1 hour either way and it still doesnt show trading as active, what am I doing wrong?

Thanks

This will be in the settings for the Strategy Trader on the chart it is placed so will only affect that chart.

These times are your computer time not GMT or Broker time.

The "Local" time as shown at the top right of the Manager.

Also 24 hour time "Local".
