Yes, running on D1, getting Trend and Trendwave at the signal
Also running on H4 with only wave to wave and double MA filter, not enough time yet to judge but taking trades as programmed.

Yes, my broker closes around 5PM local time, for a few minutes each day, and I have had "market closed" error come up. By setting up the trade times to not trade during that time, I have not received the 'market closed' error, and the trade is temporarily held until the market re-opens, rather than being deleted.
Interesting...It didn't appear to work when I tried it and I followed the rules. :?
What part of the function actually stops it from trading?
Maybe it's something I did.? :oops:
two things to check:
a) make sure that Terminal Window is open in the EA, then click on the Experts tab to watch the print statements as they are issued. Then, start the EA. If there is an error with the trading hours, you will see a message in all caps "ERROR IN TRADINGHOURS INPUT.....". There are two errors. one is for no start or closing time found; one is for putting close/start time in the wrong order. Time must be formatted similar to: +00.30,-16.59,+17.03,-23.59

b) In an earlier version, in the initTradingHours() function, I noticed a small typo.
existing code: if ( prefix != "," && prefix != "-" )
correct it to read: if ( prefix != "+" && prefix != "-" )
If you are using a current version, this should already be corrected....but might be worth a check

Good luck!

I am working on minor adjustments / tweaks on HGB. Here is what I have observed:

a) function CalculateDailyResult()
inside the for(.....)loop,
below: if (OrderMagicNumber() != MagicNumber) continue;
ADD the following code:
//--the line below is added to select only todays' trades.
if (OrderCloseTime() < iTime(Symbol(),PERIOD_D1,0) ) continue; //order was closed before current start of this Day BAR. Ignore it.

Doing this will provide accurate trade counts and total profit calculations for the Day.
Curious - I already have that in my version. Maybe I added it and never got around to uploading. Thanks anyway.

I have added it to V 1c in post 1. You don't need the update if you only ever keep today's trades in your history tab. Add it yourselves if you want, at line 2362ish.

Problem? In some pairs the HGB opens trades too far from market - in other pairs it seems to be OK. Settings OOTB
