Hey Goeff...

Just wondering how you found trading on SUNDAYs... I am asking since sometimes there is a gap shown, does this affect how it determines the trend? Turning on V5a now, so lets see how it does tonight.

Hi Geoff,
Thanks for the current version and i implemented the suggestions by WWILD. Now the back testing is working very fast and looks very good.
My broker time is set to London time. That means i need to set my offset to 1 hour.

sorry for asking the same question again as it doesn't open any trade on the demo account for the last 4 days

Regards
Velli

I just got entered LONG at 5389 on my live account. Broker is TDFX. Breaking 5400 would be a nice way to start off the week!
If you're scared get a dog.

Robots tend to use broker time hence the confusion in determining the start times!

The trouble is, every broker has their own time zone so we have broker time, local time and GMT to take into consideration, at least if we use GMT it is a standard.

Currently we do not take news events into consideration, we aim for a compromise solution and consequently take the occasional hit!

If you have any info regarding data feeds from the options market it would be useful.

Look forward to hearing more from you!
Now, you get me really confused!! I use Alpari Uk demo. The broker watch shows GMT + 2, my computer watch GMT +1, your 5a version offsets GMT = 0. So basically the robot is switched on at 1 hour before Tokyo starts at 0 GMT. Am I correct on this one?

Out on position 2... got to a few pips shy of TP2, so I tightened up TSL.

TP1 --> +22
TP2 --> +40

62 pips today!

But you are using a broker ahead of EST. I am using Interbank FX and it activated my trade at 8 PM CST. Interband FX is on GMT time. if I had traded at start time 23 instead of start time of 1 I would have gotten the results you did.

I am not sure.. I know this GMT thing is always an issue. Try maybe switching the settings, but I would ask Geoff, the creator, he may be able to help you more

Hope your trade works out!
