Could someone check a set file for me please to see why offsetting is not working.
I am using TJF's 'CP directional.set' on a GBPCAD 5m chart. As far as I remember I have not made any changes to the set file and I have definitely not changed time frames.
There are 9 open Buy trades for a loss of about 450 pips. There are no Sell trades open.
I have 2 other GBPCAD charts open on the same account but they are using a different MagicNumber and TradeComment.

G'day all,
Well at the risk of getting a severe head lopping, I thought it better to post my question here!
Having read the HGB CP thread, and seeing others getting the JumplingStopLoss modification error 130: invalid stops, I thought the issue was due to the Broker?
In my case I have been with GP since 2015 (and of course are very happy), I did get this 130 error, and also a ModifyOrderTpSl stop loss modification failed error 133: trade disabled...
Being out of the SJF rhythm for about a year, is there something I am just not seeing in my set file?
I have been using TFJ's setfile, with my slight changes to the font etc, which won't have any bearing on this issue...
Can someone check the setfile please, or let me know of my incompetence in this area?
Using as of yesterday v1a.
Thanks in advance
Tony

OK, what I mentioned above doesn't seem to bother CP too much as it still made 1.4% for 2 days!tonyharmony » Thu Oct 19, 2017 11:00 am wrote:G'day all,

What I have noticed is that when I changed the TF to 15 min chart, I no longer have these errors?
Will keep informed of the outcome over time, but I will have to say that this EA is simply brilliant!
Thanks again Steve, Thomas and TJF, for your combination of genius...
Cheers
Tony

One gets blinded by the shear excitement of CP to see the obvious...

I have a problem with the trading hours settings. I'm in Australia and want the EA to trade from 7pm until 6am the next day.
I've set the tradingHours to '+19.00,-06.00'. This is obviously not working as shown in the pics below. It was taken at 10:04pm as shown on the bottom right corner. Yet the display says it's outside trading hours.
I presume the problem is because I'm trading from one day to the next. Should I split it into 2 sessions such as '+19.00,-24.00,+00.01,-06.00' ?

Question about jumping SL: is it working correctly on latest version for everybody else? Fails to trigger on my side since the upgrade to V1a.

Hi Barcode.
Times are confusing. I think you need to refer to the "broker time" on your chart and study that in relation to your time zone and adjust accordingly...

One more confused here. 
1. Does actually matter SsTradingLevelCrossValue? I've looked at the code but didn't find any calculation that use level cross.
2. After i posted here http://www.stevehopwoodforex.com/phpBB3 ... 50#p157750 D1 SS changed in blue. Well yes, EA use current candle for calculation. I use 2 for SsTradingDifferenceThreshold. Is it possible that SS was in fact red at my local time 09.00, and then it changed for white?
3. Maybe a calculation that involves level cross will be more usefull to get in and out of trades?

If you put your mind onto something sooner or later it will come up with the solution.

I'm using '+00.01,-06.00,+19.00,-24.00'. It's worked for the last 2 nights so all is good.
