London opens, and promptly dives down to set a new low for the day (which would have made the EA look for shorts if it wasn't already) then reverses upwards 60 pips on GU and 50 on EU at the time of writing. London does its own thing, I see no evidence at all to prove that it takes its lead from preceding sessions.
I think this interesting video on what this guy calls a 'judas swing' it relevant to Slipshod's point.

Maybe we adjust timing to an hour after London open for direction. ;)

I found another problem. It's not really a problem, but it should not happen ideally :
The EA is filling the logfile for the day continuously. Already 28 Megabytes for today.

my program folder for my Empty4 has not got any logs with that amount of gb's, unless ofcourse there is a file that had to be loaded that i don't know about.

Jth,
have you checked you expert properties, go to this scrren as pic attached, and see if your settings are the same, they must be.
you click on the expert advisor on the chart, and you get to its settings, there is a tab to the left of the settings, that gets you to this, hope you follow what i'm writing.
hope this helps, but i am quite sure it's this. Its best set to these settings in the 'tool' menu of your Empty4 client.
