about 7 hours after!
Yes true, but the market can trade in a range for a long time before that time. Its not often you get a trend before this time. Anyway we will wait and see.

Am I reading this correctly? 6.00 is the best time with a 38 SL and 45TP? and is that 6GMT or adjusted for daylight in summer in UK? Thanks
I read
1) Tweaking at 6.00 - 45 profit - 38 stop- 24 BE
2) 6.0 2.48 2960 190 239
One of the 2 is wrong
TK if you read my previous posts, you would know why I am in early. I hope some of you guys joined me this time.
Well, I didn't have time to read all posts but it worked out for us all last night, from 4-2 hrs before London open, everything said buy so yeeehaaa. :clap:
+35 pips! I fell asleep lol. I followed Mark's manual and entered 1 1/2 hours before London open
Can you post a screen shot of your entry point, so I can try and figure out why I hit BE?
They don't seem to like screen shots here since it's not only purchasers who are in this forum.
My entry price was 1.6123 if that helps you. 1 1/2 hours before London open. On FXDD that's 9:30
baredub,
The reason behind SL moved to BE is, some brokers don't execute trades at the same point, for example FXDD always enters at a price higher than alpari with difference of 3 to 4 pips...... so if you use alpari and i use FXDD.... you will reach 20 pips before i do and your SL will be moved to BE and mine didn't move. Thats what happened today.
Last thursday, alpari moved to BE and FXDD didn't the result was BE for alpari and loss for FXDD.

Just remove the indicators and the chart will be ok to post.
I used Mark's new settings. Check the email he sent out.
This is a good explanation. FXDD is always around 4 pips higher than the other brokers.
what is the GMT hour of NY open?
NY open is 10:30 GMT. but next week will be 11:30 GMT. because NY goes to EST.
This setting on FMT is 1.5 hours before NY open @ 8 am. local time, same as GU at 1.5 hours before London open 8 am. local time.
good luck !

Congratulations! Good thing it went the right way while you were asleep
then I put in the ea 10.30 or 9?
I had a problem when using 4.0, there was a message displayed on error in volumn,
support from FMT told me to look at the LotsDecimal, some brokers dont allow 2 digits after the decimal, so change LotsDecimal to 1.. not sure this will solve the problem, i have missed the winning trade today.
