For the pairs EJ and UJ is so far used 6 for brokers with GMT(OOTB is set to 8 was GP set GMT+2), so GMT-4 will give 2, but every one can experiment with this setting.. Cheers Tommaso |

Hi Guys.. I guess the biggest problem for everyone is the EndOfZoneDetermingHour. After reading all the links and the full thread over and over again I would like to summarized it once and for all. MondayBreakoutSR_B_6xx.mq4 by default value for EndOfZoneDetermingHour=8. So if your Broker is GMT + 2 = MondayBreakoutSR_B_6xx.mq4 = 8 GMT = MondayBreakoutSR_B_6xx.mq4 = (8-2) = 6 GMT -1 = MondayBreakoutSR_B_6xx.mq4 = 5 GMT -2 = MondayBreakoutSR_B_6xx.mq4 = 4 GMT -3 = MondayBreakoutSR_B_6xx.mq4 = 3 GMT -4 = MondayBreakoutSR_B_6xx.mq4 = 2 GMT -5 = MondayBreakoutSR_B_6xx.mq4 = 1 *Please Correct me if I am wrong. Ok that done and clear. Please read the whole thread to understand more. There are really good example in there. ---- First off Tommaso .. :hi: Hats to you on your patience and skills to handle all the evolving request in this strategy. I've got a question..I cant seem to get the MondayBreakoutSR_B_6xx.mq4 working in the strategy tester. I see all the indicator; SR, moving indicator and bars but nothing opens for Buy or Sell. Is it because we can only do Forward Testing for the indicator? Because i couldn't get anything on the MondayBreakoutEA_I on the strategy tester as well but i was lucky to leave it running and it started triggering an open short position this week for GBPUSD. Just want to know if i am doing anything wrong as i been trying to back test it for days now and nothing ever get open. -Dez |

Hi, please check the AdvertisedSpread seeting and the spread you use for crappy backtester, if you set crappybacktester to 5 as spread (crappy uses points, EA pips) it should work OOTB, but important is to set this value to a value who works with your broker, OOTB is the set up for GlobalPrime (leaders in low spread)..Cheers Tommaso |

I hate blackouts. I have twice initiated long term tests on this EA only to have each terminated due to a power outage (which I get only a few times a year it seems). Bad luck or a prediction, lol?? Joy joy happy happy |
