At the live account I close manually whenever my psychological target (SL or profit) of 500 pips is hit.

{quote} I don't close the demo accounts, I let them run until 20:00 GMT, or when the 200 pips SL hits. I take a look occasionally to see how they go. At the live account I close manually whenever my psychological target (SL or profit) of 500 pips is hit. Regards.
(now i have to change all my templates 
)Thought so because you run in daily mode.
Do you run every day including monday and friday ?
I am thinking about starting next week tuesday.
Just out of curiosity i set up a 12 chart dashboard like yours on a myfxbook account to see where those enormous amount of pips are coming from and what happens when the week reverses.

{quote} So you do close them, on time.
The demo accounts run every day (even Monday and Friday) on daily mode. My real account runs only Tuesday to Thursday, whenever I tried trading Mondays or Fridays it was very unpredictable, and mostly disasterous.
The thing is that it is not a "set and forget" system (even with the SL and the TP), right now this W1 demo account is at -1946 pips (it reached +3400 pips this morning around 9 GMT), so you can't leave it running for ever.
Also, yesterday it reached +6000 pips at 10:00 GMT and by the afternoon it was +2000 pips.
I believe that the SL at 200 is not working (some baskets closed at -350) but I didn't find the time to investigate, I am a little behind on this forum (page 308), maybe it has been discussed recently. I am planning on reading the rest of the pages in the weekend.
Regards,
Prokopis.

{quote} The closetrade routines are coded such that all OPEN TRADES must be 0 before the routine stops trying to close a trade. It will continuously loop thru all open trades and close them until there are 0 left. The issue is more with the close hour condition. If the EA doesn't get a signal from the close hour condition it won't get to the close trade functions. Like I said I will add a trigger that eliminates the need for a time interval.
and thx for your great work

{quote} reinhr are u using 37.7.6? Or is it really 3.6? Now that is strange. That is a first. Like I said when a close function is called, it will loop thru all open trades... until there are 0 trades left. Hmmm.... Could u do this please. Go to the history tab and show the comments. Once you have the comments showing up on the right side. See if u can find the 4 trades and orphaned that were closed. I want to see what the comments were, that may tell me WHY there was an orphan. Man, I tell you guys keep finding the craziest bugs LOL
i am running v 37.6,
2017.06.14 10:21:12.584 xm7_Ccfp_Wkly_TradeMonitor_v37.6 EURUSD,M1: close #2105673502 sell 0.01 EURCAD at 1.48057 at price 1.48108
on one account i run there is still 2 orphans running from 2 days ago, i did not close them yet manually. whats really odd as heck is that this has never happened till a few days ago. and then it happened on like 3 of my demos different brokers same day. thats just odd as heck.
so far it worked flawlessly.
this weekend i will upgrade to your latest build.
