11.0 trading sessions

Post by **SteveHopwood** » Wed Sep 24, 2014 7:01 am

The London market is now open. The time at the point of writing this is 07.00 GMT.

BBT and B2BT should have sent their session open pendings.

Tokyo: 00.00 GMT
London: 07.GMT
New York: 12.00 GMT

Hi Bob,
Can you describe how you determine session especially Australia session with Asian session.
Your 11.01 indicator set Asian session start at 23 GMT but Tokyo open start at 00 GMT.
Or I didn't set the indi correctly. Thx.

Bob, Steve, thanks for the B2BT. I set it up ootb earlier today after adjusting the session open times according to the notes on page 1. When I got back in just now I had this notice on my screen and I am not sure what to do to fix it.

Hi Aussiedoc

Are you using a 4 digit broker?

I'm testing on a 5 digit broker and no problems, it set all orders at the start of London session perfectly.

Cheers...Ted

// Beta indicator below //

I'm trying to automate sessions display based on their GMT default times.
The attached indi is the results so far and I need some people to try it on their broker and confirm that it is working as intended. I've tried it on Oanda and GP, and it seems to be working fine.

Session times are fixed in the code and the broker server offset is calculated.

Please, do not post here your issues with the indi, send me a private msg with your results.
If you want to attach a screenshot, please make it so I can see the datetime ruler, the sessions drawn and the broker time (the one on top of the symbol list)

Also, do not delete the previous indicator with user inputs for timezones as long as it is not confirmed that this one is working.

Edit : removed beta indicator.
