One more issue:
Alpari's clock is different than Interbank. Alpari's time is 1 hour earlier.
When Alpari's 10:45 - Interbank's 09:45. So the test i attach is without TimeFilter (False).
The time filter was meant for stay away from the New York session, and EA would continue trading after London close. Thats the purpose I originally coded it on the platform. Meanwhile, the higher your leverage, the more profitable/stable this EA is. But I like the way you dig to the vibe. Actually by testing it under a low leverage situation would really test the limit of this little critten. I certainly dont know what makes the best for Alpari. And its good that you found out something suitable for you. Always remember to continue backtest this EA every week. Its a need to revise the Pips variable. Because when market sentimen changed, we can never expect a 5pips interval to survive anymore.

Anyway, if you would pick up the initiative to help me demo testing it on Alpari, I would deeply appreciate that. Cheers.

Regards

David
