I found the mistakes... the EA should buy gbp/jpy firstly in GMT00 today, but it sell it!? and the EA should sell gbp/usd but it buy....they happened today
As you said my order on gbpjpy was handled correctly.
Just try to post your settings, journal and expert tab reports

Thx skyline, my settings are generally the same with you, i use GMT00, TP999, SL40, SUNDAY FALSE, MM FALSE exit 17 max2 risk2 slippage3

I think the problem with your EA is When it was been first attached to the chart, it will always enter with a buy or sell randomly, then after this day, it might be back to normal, i am not sure... i guess it is.

or as you said before, after the EA attaching to the chart, never touch anything ... i wonder if the lots or some settings can be adjusted during the trading process... otherwise.... everytime after the adjustment, the wrong entry comes again.....

No I don't think problem is when EA is executed for the first time, since the routine is executed in the same way based on previous candles trend.
You said are using Sunday candle = false , which one is your broker ? Are you sure that your broker don't get the sunday candle in the D1 chart ? (just open D1 chart and check if there is a tiny candle for yesterday 22 Apr)

Thank you skyline! my broker is Interbank FX, yes it has the sunday candle, but i don't want to rely on the sunday candle for deciding the Monday's trading, so i set it to False... Should I set it True? is that mean the EA will still doing the entry depends on last Friday candle If i set it to True?

No Feeder , you are misleading the way it's intended to be used the SundayCandle flag.
I will try to explain here :

* If your broker get the Sunday candle -> Then you set the SundayCandle flag to true
* If your broker don't get the Sunday candle -> Then you set the SundayCanlde to false

In this way you tell the EA to don't take care about the sunday candle in any case.
Infact I'm using Fastbrokers as broker that get the sunday candle too, so I tell 'Hey EA my broker get that fuc@#.. sunday candle, please don't use it', so I set SundayCandle to true and EA on Monday will check the trend based on previous friday

It's difficult to say Matrixebiz, I never experienced this kind of error. Try to analyze the journal and expert report to spot some kind of errors.

Yeah, it's more wierd, the EA apparently didn't even place the orders that are wrong.
In pic one it shows my expert tab with order number in question 139092 not even placed but in my history tab it shows 139092 w/81 SL. 139089 placed ok, 139098 (same currency) placed ok w/15 SL. I have other EA's running on the same platform and haven't noticed this. I'll have to look closer. I have 8 platforms running with different EA's

I'm running Fast FX Trader from fastbrokersfx.com
Can you try their platform to test and see if you get the same wierdness?

I'm using too Fastbrokers in my live account and never see this strange behaviour
Looking at your report, how could be that you get 2 orders (1 buy and 1 sell) opened at the same time for the GBPCHF ? It seems that order with 81 pips sl wasn't placed by Daily Scalping EA that should place only 1 order at opening day , try to check out

Check the order number and see if the expert actually made that trade. You might be having the same problem as what I did.

I'm running this program with 2 different broker, my demo account is interbankfx and my live account is fxdd. My setting :

for Interbankfx:
- GMT_shift : 0.0
- sundaycandle: true

for fxdd :
- GMT_shift : 3.0
- sundaycandle : false

But the entry point is not the same, my fxdd account is already open a trade GBPJPY at 2001.04.25 05.55 fxdd time price 237.10. In the other hand my interbank acc hasn't open a trade. What make those 2 different? Can anyone help me?

I've already checked it, in the comment coloum said sellorder[sl] so I guess the trade must be made by EA.

Hello skyline,

when I click on the "Live Result from 6 March 2007" link in your footer I see an actual Closed P/L: -542.66.

Was this correct?

No rschick, you have to check from 6 march 2007 , trades before that date aren't related to Daily Scalping EA
