my buying hour is 23 on the individual robot, so I hope the time bug doesn't affect it. We will see.

Hi Steve,

I was wondering if the demark trendlines indicator with take profit lines will do the job. Take a look at the screen shot. 1st thick line is the 1st tp and the 2nd line is the 2nd tp. Well, if tp doesn't get hit we could still use your mptm ea and do jumping stops eh?

Wilson.

What is your timezone? And what is your local time?

My times will be different than yours because I'm in a different timezone. All times are set by your local time compared to Tokyo open and close -2.

My head hurts too - I've set EA Sell to Tokyo open (0.00 GMT) - 2, and Buy to Tokyo close (8.00 GMT) - 2 hours to my local time. i.e Australia 8 + 16. Still says outside trading hours. But isn't Tokyo open now ?? ... or is it that the EA only looks for trades for 2 hours on these times set?

You should: Monitor for SELL XXXJPY pairs from 10.30pm GMT until 00.30am GMT. Monitor for BUY XXXJPY pairs from 06.30am GMT until 08.30am GMT.

Thanks FxShadow - between monitoring for buys and sells EA will say "Outside Trading Times" even though Tokyo market is open.
Sorry to be so basic ....

To Steve, ScoobyDoo, thanks for the EA. It looks like a good one. Can't wait to try it!

And to those of you struggling with the Time Zone thing, here is a widget from Oanda that you can put on your desktop. Google also has the same thing under Google Gadgets-Finance (which I use) It gives all the market times for your time zone. Just set your time zone and the widget does the rest. You can then easily figure out what your local time is when the market starts and then adjust to Broker time, etc. Takes alot of the pain away. Sites are here: http://fxlabs.oanda.com/cgi/fxlabs.p...kethourswidget, & here: Under Google Gadgets, "Add Gadgets" Finance, page 3 "FxMarket Hours"

Seems to be some confusion...the EA uses your broker's server time, not your computer's (local) time
I hope not. All of Steve's EA's use computer time. Maybe your computer time is the same as your broker.
