Shelley Windows perhaps, let's see what tomorrow brings. 'Your' problem is interesting and I generally take a view that if it's somebody else problem today I'd prefer to find and fix it before it becomes my problem tomorrow on a live account ...

Hi Steve I'll leave the ECN stuff for now, because although I've never seen I can see that immediate trades are a (rare) possibility. Thanks for your words in post 1. Paul

Sounds great I'll look forward to watching it when I get home. I started a demo using profit/loss and was up about 3 % last night and I've been looking at the indicators to try and get better entries for the subsequent trades, which I'm sure will ...

So, technically speaking, if you've selected a unique magic number for the EA then the 'other' trades should have been ignored and 2 new pending trades should have been opened by Nico. However, can you post the log from just before 2 a.m. British ...

Hi Trade4fun I was considering this idea, keep the zero point indicator together with MT4 and produce alerts/emails. I'm here to lend a hand! We have Brian's excellent spreadsheet so testing of the indicator will be pretty easy. Give me a shout here ...

OK, another go — So, I'm lucky that the boss is away today Three things: - 1. I've added a check to make sure that EVERYTHING is synchronised! Code for synching the local and server time was already present, but this debug version now ...

Hi I won't have thought that would be a problem, but I've setup an 2k account to trade with 0.1 lot to see what happens, however I'm non-ECN and normally trade 0.05 lot on a 1k account. --Edit 0.1 lot on 2k account is all good, must be a problem ...
