So I setup a demo account with ForexMeta, followed directions for installation/configuration and am using defaults for EURGBP, EURCHF and EURUSD.

No trades but when I run the strategy tester, it looks like it should have made some trades but nada.

Server time is 07:33:45 and GMT says 05:33:45 so my GMT offset is at -2.

Any ideas or suggestions to get fapturbo to start trading?

TIA!!!!

Your GMT offset should be +2 not -2 as you are 2 hours in front of GMT. That might have something to do with it, but it should have made some trades during the past 5-7 hours assuming you have had it up that long. You might try the FXDD demo as the forex meta has larger spreads than FXDD which can cause issues.

Thanks for the reply Sooner...

Hmm, so I have signed up for the FXDD demo but I've already activated on Meta... only 1 demo activation... this is the ghey.

I setup on friday and had no trades until today, so I had my first trades today which was pleasing to see, I will be monitoring over the next few days to see what is happening, I am using a demo account only at this stage.

well an update... after 2 days of no trades. i uninstalled everything, downloaded 220 and re-installed. Set my GMT offset correctly as well as put on agressive scalper settings for EURGBP and EURCHF....

it's now trading on my demo account! 2 open trades, so i guess reinstallation really helped.

Hi,

Quick Question: I live in California (so pacific time zone currently 1:15pm) I thought the scalper trades during London time around 11PM pacific time, but it started opening trades at 1pm or 23:00 metatrader time. Please help me to understanding this.

Thanks

what is your brokers time? Your time zone does not matter in the least.

Broker time on metatrader (ForexMeta) shows currently 23:22. I have the GMT offset at 2

The scalper took a trade at 23:00 Sell EUR/GDP & 23:04 Buy Eur?Chf
