ive had a couple of successfully closed baskets (starting at london open) but im basically using half the TP target as people seem to be doing here. I have a 100 TP but im going at 0.2 lots instead of 0.1 lots

{quote} You are not trading realistically. For 0.01 lot my margin requirements are $ 150 at the moment. So if you want to trade 0.2 lots it will be 3000 and that is not even the max. (worst case 28 * 4 * ~$ 40 (0.2 lot) = $ 2240 for every $50 profit ?). You need at least 4 times the margin to avoid margin calls so an account with $ 12000 to start with.

{quote} Thanks GVC will try it tomorrow's LO (that's the only time FXCM data feed will 'open' the auto V6 ) Looking at your qualifying parameters.... you're trying to establish more momentum before entries are made, yes? So trying for fewer and later entries, but better 'quality'... nice!

{quote} StrToTime() will just return seconds since 1.1.1970 has nothing to do with GMT. So the original routine worked perfect as long as you know what your local session times are. If you do not...... But i didn't work for passed midnight sessions.

  Print (" This Is my time and date now using TimeLocal() ",TimeLocal()," and here you can see the result of StrToTime('00:59')   ",StrToTime("00:59"));
