Any similar experiences?

Schindawg did you pick up any trades outside of your set EA times?

I did not pick up any trades outside my set EA times. Not sure how/why that would happen. I have USD/CAD set as 2100 - 2300; you could try that for a night or two and see if it still goes past your set time. Then you know you have a bigger problem....

For instance the two trades I caught last night were early on.

44871911 2009.04.08 23:00 sell 1.34 eurchf 1.52305 1.53810 1.51720 2009.04.08 23:01 1.52248 0.00 0.00 0.00 66.58
44873016 2009.04.08 23:02 sell 1.36 eurchf 1.52276 1.53930 1.51880 2009.04.08 23:43 1.52223 0.00 0.00 0.00 62.79

As you can see from the times the first was immediately after the EA started trading 2300 broker time (2200 BST & 2100 GMT).

Are the times in the EA GMT times?
All I did was change the "End Work Time Hour" value to 0 for the USDCAD.
Also, how do I capture the lines to post here that have the trade details in it like you have done?
Thanks.
