That may be just the problem then...... If your broker time is currently 19:45, and your trades triggered at 16:17, you did not trade the NY open...... the NY open, and actually 30 minutes prior to was about 6 and a half hours ago..... according to your statement, your trades triggered around 3 hours ago....

Am I missing something??

It was NY open, computer time was 3:17 and Alpari time was 4:17, NY starts 3:30

It is obvious and I guess everybody is aware of this: If we will catch a BIG retrace like today we will have huge red PIPS...

Nobody would trade the NY Open at NFP with this EA, but it might happen every day on London/Frankfurt open as well.

Cheers OBO

Jahill, please comment this guy and OBO both traded same time as you and how come u got profit and they lost? What is the issue here.

Also, guys in my preious post this is what I had written the risk of using Shelley is.
As Shelley just looks at slope it will not be able to take into account the retracements. It will keep selling into brief rallies if slope is saying so. We need a method to preserve the profits made in right trend trades. That is why I am more towards manual trading 10.2 or the EA developed by Steve and experts, which actually looks at other rules of NN 10.2

Could anyone having success with this EA please post their settings? The versions are changing so fast that set files are not helpful.. For some reason my EA will not send out orders...
May I also suggest that the version name be included in the ea name so we don't have to attach it to find version number.

Thanks

This thread is not about the other 10.2 rules. You want 10.2, or the 10.2 EA then trade them. You don't like what is on offer here, then don't trade it. Simple, really.

:D

Read through the thread to a previous post of mine. I have posted the setfile and the EA that I have used on the Fxbook account on my signature. I set mine to fire off at London open which is 0800 BST. Or GMT +1 as we are now in british summertime.. Although you wouldn't think it from the weather today. Criminal is Alpari UK. :D
