I only got the loss on GJ because I didn't want to buy one and sell the other.

You can't set it to your time, you have to set it to the broker start time. My broker is GMT+0 so they start at 21(00), so try 21. I had it freak out like you on GJ, not sure if it's because the market is closed but I opened Indicators (Ctrl+I) and ...

Sorry to all, I should not have posted that with a Commission value. I have set it to 0 here and you can change it if you want to. 1.3.2e adds MagicNumber option, nothing else. file file

Here, try this. Set the StartingHour to what yours is; mine is 21. If you leave it to 0 it is just the same as the original. file

Good that you made 7! Mine was BE for the week but I can see where I need to improve. For me LO is at midnight and if I don't plan the day accordingly, I can be too tired to trade much and I only traded some days 1st hour at LO and missed nice ...

Sorry, when I posted that I left the commission at 7 which is mine. Set this to 0 and it will close right at 5 pips.

Yes I looked at that too and it shifts by DAYS not hours. I was going to try to fix it but only if I find time and desire. You should get a demo account with GMT+3 just to see the indicators and trade off your own account.

Clearly, my friend, you do not live in the US and have to deal with this B.S.! Maybe I will renounce my citizenship and move to Europe!

Yeah, as soon as I have 10,000 I can open an account with really low spreads. In the meantime I have to deal with this. (damn, the Yen is running away!)

Yes it does, like MrTD said, just change the MN in my EA to 789 and it will manage only those trades. If you only trade this system, don't worry about MNs.

Yes I have been thinking about this and plan to release another EA with that as an option, that is, if it detects a Buy pending order, it will save the info and delete the order and place a market order when Bid reaches that price. As soon as I can ...

Actually that doesn't work, I tried it, BUT with the latest MT4 they added the option to choose your spread for backtesting! Great stuff.

Thanks, very cool. Anyone who wants to use my 1.3.3e EA can add MN 789 to manage only Udine-style trades.

So, curious why you picked GA and not EA? They both look similar but EA is loss for those who took it.

I was also thinking that if the commission is eating into your profits, you might try adding 1/2 of the commission to your TP rather than full. just a thought.

Yes I have been thinking the same thing, especially where spread is > 1 pip. I don't like getting stuck in early and then price reverses.
