Thanks so much for your great explanation Geoff.
I see that my learning curve is still steep....
Yes of course you are correct!
And you would get exactly the same start for the EURO with GMT offset 2 and start time 22 whichever you prefer!
All I am trying to point out is that, if all brokers used GMT all year round we could specify all times in GMT and there would be far fewer problems setting a "standard" for time.
As it is, with all brokers using different times, it is a pain.
However, we can get round this using the GMT offset option to compensate for the brokers offset, once this is done...
Thanks so much for your great explanation Geoff.

If you are using it on Alpari it's GMT +2 on forex.com its GMT 0.
The default start times should then work out correctly!
Thank you. Please, what does Test02 need for GMT?

Should have mentioned it was version 6 I was using. I also have this on my Alpari Demo and it didn't trade. Thankfully it all ended in profit anyway.

It's funny how Paul had two buys and I had two sells on v7 last night.
Thanks for all the help today. In the beginning of this thread GMT was very clear to me. I need to go back to that time.
When GMT was first accepted it was fight between Paris and London for the zero line, London won the vote, maybe we are still fighting that battle?

P.S. EURUSD v7, that's a beast......
