Be sure to enter Tokyo Start as 00:00 and not 0:00 or you will get an error message on your screen.

Am I right in thinking that you do not have to set the GBP/USD to false on the new Tokyo EA in order for it to trade?

That is correct for v11.

Is that a M as in M&M's? or another M?

I hate to act "newbish" here and post a potentially ridiculous question, but when attempting to download v11, it appears as a .php file not a .ex4. Suggestions for me? Thanks.
Heya Purdue,

I've seen this a couple of times - IE will offer to save the file "attachment.php" instead of the file you're trying to download - try right-clicking on the file & selecting "save target as..."

If you're trying to download Geoff's EA, you can always go back to Post #1, where he stores a) the current versions and b) his collected pertinent info & tech-notes.

He's very thorough that way

Hi,

this is my first post. i downloaded the EA today and tried to run a back test, but it seems that since May 19 2010 - June 10 2010, there wasn't any trades executed, can i confirm this?

on top of that, i understand from this thread and other (Simple 3 Order GBPUSD EA) different broker will have different outcome from the EA, i am currently with FXCM UK, anyone has experience with them when using this EA?

Thank you.

Jay

I think piptician has set it to work on broker time so you can just put the
lines wherever you want them, I knew putting time lines on the chart
would cause problems!
So, for istance Alpari Tokyo open time should be set to 00:00 (GMT +2) and FXpro to 1:00 (GTM +3) ?

As I understand it the lines are just for show and do not affect the operation of the EA. Is that correct??

Referring to page 1 which describes the the fixes/new features in Tokyo v11, you'll see there are 4 new time parameters for specifying the market open times:

TokyoOpenTime, FrankfurtOpenTime, LondonOpenTime and NewYorkOpenTime (these default to Alpari UK time which is CET i.e. London + 1 hour). The times must be specified in 24 hour format.

In a future version of Tokyo it could potentially figure out these times for you based on your broker's server time and daylight savings, but for now I'm afraid you'll need to figure this out for yourselves ...

I think everyone seems to know where these lines should be for them (judging by the number of posts complaining that they are in the wrong place)

No harm done though, as they are just vertical lines and do not effect the operation of the EA.

I checked it now, you're right. FXpro is 3.00 by the way.
That 1:00 which was preset fooled me a bit.

Tokyo V11 1 order uses 16 SMA and 197 SMA which were in the same direction
so it traded today.

Tokyo V11 2 and 3 order use 10 SMA and 197 SMA which were in opposite directions
so they did not trade today.
Maybe there is a case for a new option to trade the 1 order settings if the 1 order SMAs are aligned but the 2 or 3 order SMAs are not aligned. This may help fill in some of the blanks when the 2 and 3 order settings do not yield a trade ???

Geoff, any idea how often days like this happen ?

Yes, I think that is a good idea as a selectable option!
