I'm running v2z with 16.04 and it's taking trades out of hours. I've restricted trading to just the morning using the entry: "+07.00,-12.00,". It's not responding to this on local or even broker time - checked broker time just in case.

I've had it working before on other versions and I don't think I'm doing anything differently but I just wanted to check if anyone else has the same issue?

Any pointers in the direction of the obvious gratefully received!

Thanks.

Not sure is your typo, if there is no typo, there shouldn't be a "' , " after -12.00

Thanks Kwchau, but I tried it with and without to no effect.

Hi TonyHarmony

Are you using the EA with OOTB Settings?

I've tweeked a few settings e.g. lowered the number of multitrades. My results are nowhere near as good as yours. In fact making a loss.

All on demo though

Priyesh

G'day Priyesh, how are you mate?

The only changes to the OOTB settings are 1440 (Daily TF) and I use Trend Lot=0.03.
I don't use any CHF pairs, but have added XAUUSD (Gold)...
I have 3 brokers Global Prime, Think Forex, and AxiTrader.
All my accounts are demo of a deposit of $1,100 (I like to keep my demos as real as posible)

The snapshot was taken from Think Forex, but the brokers are all the same,with the exception of Global Prime which charges a small commission.

Here are my set files
Good luck and happy trading

Cheers

Take a screenshot of your settings, specifically the trading hours section.

Your welcome Priyesh...

I did forget to mention that I also close out trades manually that I think are reasonably in profit throughout the week.

Also, as it has been pointed out to me, that the set file I have used is an old one that I copied the settings directly to from my chart to the old set file I downloaded some time ago.

As I am a bit of a dinosaur and don't know how to get a recent set file

. so as I change setting, copy them, then change the date to keep track.

Sorry this has confused anyone, but the settings are exactly the same as on my computer.

I am no professional, just playing around to see how the system works.
Playing with the settings yourself (on demo only) and testing is the best way to learn.

Cheers
Tony

Thanks to AGT, he has pointed out to me the bloody obvious

I now know how to save a set file....

Guess who feels like an idiot? It wouldn't be the first time...

Thanks again AGT, it's definitely not the first time I have missed what is right under my nose!!!
You have saved me so much tedious work in copying every detail from file to file...

Anyone would think I was under the afluence of incohol, and I don't even drink...hehe

Here is my updated set file
Happy trading

Cheers
Tony
