I'm not saying a buy is the right trade but it is as per the EA rules

Myself I would be looking to short with a rejection at Monthly/daily open
but lets see how it goes, it's only a test

acs

ps
Keep in mind it is MONDAY (set up day) and can often be a Flatish day
we have a lot of resistance above and also support below from the weekly pivot

There is no Red flag news today but you should check news anyway

here are results of today's trade, had this been a live account and being watched you could have
reversed the trade before your losses got so high but again that depends on your trading ability

as you can see it did more or less what I predicted, anyway lets see what tomorrow brings

Guys/Gals:
Just making a quick stop. I see we are up to 2.61 Awesome job! Anyhow I am currently busy with other projects. But I am available for any questions or some coding help. Once I get an opportunity I will return and see if the EA needs anything else.

Peace and keep the faith....

After reading all the posts and then setting up the EA I found a possible ambiguity in the time settings.
For example:
BrokerTimeNow____GMT____LondonTimeNow____BrokerGMTOffset___LondonOpenTime
___12:00_________13:00________14:00______________-1_______________6:00______
___13:00_________13:00________14:00_______________0_______________7:00______
___14:00_________13:00________14:00_______________1_______________8:00______
___15:00_________13:00________14:00_______________2_______________9:00______
___16:00_________13:00________14:00_______________3_______________10:00_____

Is this table correct? Looking at the chart why did you set LondonOpenTime to 8:00 and not 10:00.

Thank you.

Hi pipmenow
Sorry I must have missed your question with page changes, just spotted it
my broker is +2 I am +1 so that makes +3 which makes it all confusing but anyway London open on my charts is 10am which is really 8am here in UK

LOTInBroker = London Open Time In Broker and it tells you on screen for me is 10am

perhaps this picture may help ..............

No. I had a green candle and went long. The only setting I have different is the TradeInOpenBarOffset = 2

I also had a long on the EURJPY with a green candle.
