@steve: is your crim a non-ecn crim?

i'am backtesting a little bit with gday2 and the backtests show the same behaviour, the last 1/3 is closed together with the second 1/3. for backtests i use another broker than my demo, but both are ecn. maybe that could be the reason...

I am trading with Cowboy Go Markets (ECN) and my demo is not displaying this behaviour either.
I have attached a screenshot showing 3 currently open trades - each with open lots of 0.01, 0.02 & 0.03 indicating the various stages in each trade

Just getting to grips with the different crims and server times. As Steve mentioned a few times he's on an Ozzie broker, and fxozgirl in this post mentioned she's on Cowboy Go Markets, so i installed Go demo (Non ECN), next to my Alpari UK Live.

I've checked the settings for Cowboy Go Markets, it's running off the Sydney server, but the Market Watch is showing server time of GMT+3, same as Alpari UK. No surprise then the D1 candles match.

If i look at your server time in the screengrab fxozgirl, assuming you took it just before posting, your's is on the same GMT+3. Can you confirm that please?

ok, i'am not fxozgirl, but i'am trading live with Cowboy Go Markets and Bully Pepperstone, also on demo Cowboy Go Markets, alpari, pepper,..

those 3 (Cowboy Go Markets, Bully Pepperstone, alpari uk) have the same gmt offset. but not gmt+3 as you said, it's gmt+2. they changed it from gmt+3 to gmt+2 at beginning of november (daylight-saving-change in usa).
All times are UTC Page 15 of 30
