I have no trades tonight at Forex.com, but all others have. Maybe because my GMT offset was +1, but Forex.com use GMT +0.
Start hour was set at 23. EA has smile face and NO errors reported.

Do you think could be the problem? I realy want to figure out why
there was no trades.
Yes, I think that was your problem.
I didn't have any at Alpari UK last night either. Did you have your platform ready in advance to trade?
I notice you are from Slovania. may I ask what part? I have a friend who lives outside the capital.

1. Find out from your broker what GMT shift it is using.
2. Tokyo always open at GMT +0. EA starts at 1 hour before Tokyo open. So 23 is correct.
3. If your broker's GMT offset is +1 (+2), then you enter 1 (2) in the GMT offset. Then choose 00:00 (01:00) as start time.

This is different from how I understood it. I thought you just enter your GMT offset (so for me at the moment with Alpari UK the broker time is GMT +1, so GMT offset is 1), and then leave the start time at 23:00. Seems to work ok for me at the mo, and my trades have been opening the same kind of time as other peoples.

Yes my platform was ready. I want to trade micro lots (0.02), this should not be a problem.

I am from Slovenia not Slovania, it is former republic of Yugoslavia.

Alpari UK is actually GMT +2 the defaults are set up for Alpari UK.

So your GMT offset should be set to 2 and start time is 23 as per defaults!

I know it's usually +2 but with our clocks going forward for DST, at the moment it is only +1 (or doesn't this affect it?).
Sorry Geoff - just need to get this nailed down once for all!

Thanks for the assurance Geoff, and for your patience. End of GMT offset questions (for me anyway!).

Why Oh Why

here is the reconnect ea, as requested. Sorry but I couldn't attach to your pm. Simply save in your experts folder and then attach to a seperate chart - you do not need to change any settings.

Probably but it could retrace a bit down at least 30 pips again,

cause its sitting right on top. Yes it is long and H1 and H4 by Stoch

looks overbought.. EU already settling down a bit...

On the other hand Dullah gets in the Chin as I expect it..

That could be end of USD uptrend right here, right now.

Time to go back below 80, Cable to 1.55 and EU to 1.30

however no trades here. Is anyone in?

in with Alpari live v7a and v8 1.47193
in with Alpari demo v9 1.47188 and no Tokyo version
MIG demo nothing

Sky I know you don't really appreciate the trade comparisons but I think that a short update is quite essential. For my part I do still not have an explanation why my live entered yesterday 23:00, demo entered 23:45 and now live and demo entered at 23:55 together...however I appreciate that finding better entry levels to reduce SL of 140 pips is probably more important......
