Nice. I'm running 1f and my basket is all red.

I ran into the same problem some others did, but with EURGBP -- opened and instantly closed 25 trades at 16:00 GMT yesterday. At least it went back to normal behavior so it didn't drain the account!

My basket was stopped by retracement with some minor profit of +30 pips.

You do realise that the latest version is 1j and that this appears to solve the problem?

:D

Hell no I didn't realize. I'm trying to keep up with 16 different ideas on this board, not to mention a few things in life outside it. Boggles me how you can keep cranking out goodies at the pace you do!

OK, I'll set up 1j for tonight's open... tnx Steve!

Hi I've been using Phil's version and it opened 24 trades at 4am GMT for EURNZD & AUDCHF for 1minute and closed each of them for a quick loss, then stopped when it hit 4:01am LOL!!

I'll take Steve's advice and try version 1j on post #1!

Hi
Finding same problem. This EA is dangerous.
It operated fine for a week, taking a couple of trades when kicked with TF change.
Friday I noticed iExposure acting funny & realised BJS had opened & closed 100 trades for spread loss in 5 mins approx 1200GMT.
BJS fired again today (Mon) and started the same open/close at approx 0500GMT.
I believe it requires split level conditional open & close to prevent transients & fluctuations.
All times are UTC Page 20 of 28
