I got a FIFO error on my close error after 7 hour safety kicked in
Those FIFO sh*theads, complete Morons.. It's my f* money

And I should be able to close any position any time. Who cares, when

it was opened? Those asSh*les probably getting $200k+ salary and full

benefits, to comeup with something like that.. Bunch of bums..

Is there a big difference of the data feed between Alpari UK and Alpari US?

I don't think Alpari UK accepts US customers

I am very sorry preset, I am probably the least technical person on this thread. I did read your post, but I have no idea what the problem is. I do not use that version of the EA. I am sticking with one of the original versions precisely because I am not technical and cannot "tweak" very easily (and have little interest in the technical side) and because I have had great success with camV3 EA. Sky is our "to go" guy for tech.

I'm not Lawgirl but this thought occurs to me. On the settings of your EA do you by chance have both the MM and the Manual lot size set to both true or both to false? The EA will not work unless one is set to true and one to false. Just a thought.

Does the ea close in order of how opened? for the FIFO rule
Took about 30 sec to close out

Something to look into
has any other US trader have this happen It is the second time for me but I had a London trade open the first time and thought that was it. This was no the case last night

02:57:37 Tokyo_GBPUSD_v17a GBPUSD,H1: Tokyo_GBPUSD_H1_v17 Closing short position Tokyo_GBPUSD_H1_v17_S1 as it has been open for more than 7 hours.
02:57:37 Tokyo_GBPUSD_v17a GBPUSD,H1: close #1731242...
Thanks for posting all the gory details - much easier to debug

From this I see your broker is complaining that position 3 is trying to be closed before position 2. I can fix this based on the fact that Tokyo currently enters all 3 positions in order at the same time. Might be trickier in Tokyo18 where the orders can be a mixture of market, limit and/or stop ...

Have a great weekend everybody

The US Govt is protecting me, don't you know I'm too stupid to manage my own money so that must prevent me from F-ing up.
This is the same Govt that is almost 14trilllion in the hole and don't know that hole from the other hole they have.

You're right, Alpari US is sucks (type this in in google and look

for the forexarmy.com link to read ppl reviews.)

and have little to do with Alpari UK except the name.

Yeah, those poor peoples 401k and pension plans investments been

cut in half at least for the last 5 years. Cannot place money anywhere.

Fixed income is Joke due to "Extended 0 rates policy" Stocks are

even worth and real consumer inflation (especially food, health/

other insurance costs/ property taxes? you bet!!!) running up

at full speed.

Basically I only see Middle class Income Deflation and everything else is

inflating alright..

My first post wasnt allowed by mod for some reason.

Sorry to post abit off topic.

Im trying to modify an EA im using, all I want it to do is close all open postions at a certain time.

Update: Just found a few EA's that do what I want and a script aswell. Not at my desk right now but will try the script and hopefully it will run along with my scalper. If not ill need to some help to add the close on time EA to the scalper.

I've tried the EA on my strategy tester, but from the journal it seems to be trading off m5 fractals....I though from post one the m15 fractal is the trade trigger. Am I doing something wrong? With the default settings, the EA eats the account pretty fast!

With default settings it has 0 losses more than year to date.

What Pair you testing on? It should only be placed on Cable

TF don't matter. We only use 5 min to see details on the fractals..
