Yes i see, download the new version and what,s the difference?
Wet is the same as GMT i think??
The first version i put GMT +2 what i have to put now?
Just compare WET and market watch in the terminal. In new versions I will use WET because GMT does not include daylight saving time. Now WET = GMT. From March 26 WET = GMT + 1.
What happened to the accounts from Monday's French election news was pretty bad.
Can you implement a filter for large gaps after weekends? (Sunday night market opening)
Maybe don't allow the EA to trade for an hour when market returns from the weekend while it works out if there was a large gap and then maybe wait until the next day to trade again?

Hello! A new version of the EA will soon be available, in which it will be possible to prohibit the opening of trades on Friday evening. This will help avoid gaps after weekends.
A few words about the situation with the Monday's gap. Yes, this is a bad situation, it can take a couple of months to recover. I hope that this will not happen again. The main thing - do not overestimate the risks.
My ECN account at IC Markets has not alot of trades this week, almost none. However when I backtest with Dukascopy I see there are much more trades. What is wrong?

Hi!
This is a normal situation. Most likely you tested with a fixed spread. Perhaps there was a too high spread or other circumstances that the strategy tester did not take into account.
Plus, the work of the EA is slightly different for different brokers. This is due to the different flow of quotes, spread and other conditions.
The results of testing coincide by 70 - 90% with real trade (when testing with a simulation quality of 99%).
Please note that new versions will use WET (Western European Time) instead of GMT (Greenwich Mean Time)!
Обратите внимание, что в новых версиях будет использоваться WET (Западное Европейское время) вместо GMT (Среднего времени по Гринвичу)!

Дорогие друзья! Если у вас возникает ошибка: «global initialization failed», то обновите, пожалуйста, сборку терминала до 1065.
Hi, I try your EA in backtest, but the result is a disaster. Can you help me understand the cause?
Thank you.

Hi! Yes I can. Spread 22 points for the scalper? Are you seriously? :)
Plus, you probably installed an incorrect WET offset. For MetaQuotes-Demo server WET offset will be +2.
Here is testing for the same period with the right parameters and a spread of 3 points:
Correct parameters for MetaQuotes-Demo:
Ok thanks, lowering the spread now works :-)
Did you try the EA on a demo or live account?

Oh sure. I will try to add monitoring of a separate account with the work of this EA in the future.
Hi,
I just rented the EA. Just a question to make sure I have the time setting ok.
If my broker time is 16:50 and WET is 13:50. Then I should set WET +3 ?

Dennis

Hi! Yes, everything is correct.
Hi! Yes, everything is correct.
No. Uncorrect. Some websites shows WET without daylight saving time. Be careful. This website: (https://greenwichmeantime.com/to/wet) shows correctly.
Now WET is GMT + 1.
So the offset will be + 2.

Hi,
My brokertime is GMT+2, what would be the correct setting for WET?

Hi!
Now WET is GMT + 1. So you should choose WET + 1 in the EA settings.
But you wrote before that your broker is ICMarkets. Time of his server is GMT + 3 (or WET +2). Be careful.
Thank you ...
I moved to Dukascopy to hopefully get results more the same as backtesting in 99%
