D1 < 100 in EA's

Post by Lawndart »

Hi,

Been lurking for a little while... just recently registered for an account. Trying to learn the "trade", so to speak...

I'm learning how to use EA's and have a couple of them running on various test accounts, and I've run into an issue that others may have experienced, but I don't think its a problem with the EA.

I'm playing with Bunker's DBM mostly, and also Scoob's (well, now, sorta DC's) Robot. I've also got Mr. Hopwood's Gday Mk 2, but it has yet to ever make a trade (that's a different story). Anyway, I've noticed in the evening around the time of Asian markets opening, I start getting lots of D1 < 100 errors.

Now, when I set up Empty4, I ran through the prescribed methods for preparing Empty4, zooming out, disabling forward scrolling, loading history for all charts. I have the LoadHistory and LoadHistory-1 scripts that pull down the information for all charts. I've also used the Home key "hammer" trick to ensure I have all the data, but something isn't right.

It only appears to be the D1 chart that's affected, and its (oddly) the same period for a handful of charts - they seem to roll back to 81 or 76 days, instead of 100. Strangely, it seems to be the NZD charts, and a couple of the CHF charts mostly.

For reference, this particular demo account is with FinFX. My other two accounts with Alpari seem to be a little more stable.

Any ideas or suggestions for the newb?

Thanks in advance.
