I don't think safearea is working properly. I have a version running with a tighter safearea set at 30. A short trade fired off on EURJPY when it was clearly out of bounds. Anybody else notice this on any instrument? And I do have my safearea parameter set to 30. The trade occured at 04:15 GMT+2.
Hi Ben,

Very weird. I saw the same happening only with EURJPY. I think I have resolved the problem now. This may sound very stupid but how can I edit my first post? I want to attach version 1.1 to that post but I cannot discover any option for that!!

Version 1.1 Is uploaded in the first post
- Use the setting RoundupLots=true if your broker don't accept Lots like 0.24.
- Is now working for MicroAccounts
- Corrected a problem with GambleNow and MM
- SafeArea was not working for EURJPY. Now it does.<!-- / message --><!-- attachments -->

Hendrick, Apparently the edit function only lasts for a short time and moves with the new posts you place. Maybe I can help. If you post it in your current post, because I am a moderator I can overide the restriction and put it in the first post... let me know, scott

Look at this, guys. It's a backtest on EURUSD; all the details are on the statement.
If this worked....WOW.
Too bad that BT is really not reliable...
In BT it works so much better without CloseSignal, anybody else experiencing problems with that?

There seems to be a lot of confusion about the time-filters used in Phoenix. So I made a manual with some explanation and how to convert the time-filters to your own time-zone.

Thanks Hendrick!
Phoenix is doing pretty well today (until now) 3-0 (3 floats, net +1.5pips).
Anybody running Firebird? How is that doing?
Hendrick, are you running Ph./FB. on a live account? Is anybody experiencing differences between running on demo and on live (except your emotion ) ?

I think the last time you have listed in the manual should be 16 instead of 15?

Hi everyone,

Did anybody leave Phoenix running during the BOJ rate hike to 0.25%? Particularly anybody have it running with UseSurf turned on? Mine was turned off, and it took a couple beatings with the usd/jpy and the eur/jpy.

Thanks!

I think Hendrick is right, Ben. His last pair was from 19 to 21, which would be 13 to 15 for U.S. Eastern time. (Subtracting 6 from Hendrick's time zone, not GMT)

Oh, you're right. I'm sorry. I was looking at my own chart when I wrote that. I thought I had seen in an earlier post that Hendrick's last pair was 19-22. I didn't notice the manual was different. My apologies.

Hendrick,

First, thanks for all your hard work on Phoenix.

Secondly, I'm trading with FXDD and their "chart time" is +3GMT. What is your "chart time" relative to GMT? Will others need to adjust their times due to their Broker's "chart times".

It just happened on USDCAD as well. A long triggered at 14:45 GMT+2 while safearea (set at 30) was out of bounds. Will the fix in the new version take care of all pairs for this error? Thx

Hi Ben,

Very interesting this. Did you see if it was far out of bounds or just a little bit? Keep me posted on this issue if you want. Thanks.

What does 'Accountismicro' do, when should you use it? I trade micro lots by entering .1 lots in the order entry window. When I answer true to 'Accountismicro' I get an 'invalid lots number for order send function' error. If I enter false to 'Accountismicro' it seems to work OK. It places the order for .1 or a 1K lots as I requested in the 'Lots' number.
