I have had that happen on live orders with FXDD during busy times (where the order doesn't get immediately executed - the traffic jam as you say) - but I always get it to 'take' - just resubmit it. Have never lost money because of that tho (yet).

What is the MT4 bug - I am not familiar with that...? Wow! Interesting! But would it not still be the case though in theory that the EA should be able to generally take all of this into consideration (including any slippage issues) and keep us out ...

Good point — Sounds right to me - and sounds like it has been addressed before as well...

Slippage... — I don't know the answer to this... slippage on demo vs live. Can we control both? If we set a max, it shouldn't matter, right? I agree with what you say below though...

Broker... — What do you think of this to tackle this brokerage problem or would we just be spinning our wheels? Part of me is inclined to say that it really doesn't matter - that the EA should be able to deal with any brokerage as long as it ...

Always wondered... — Always wondered what happens when a dog does that - what it feels like... what's going through his doggy mind... would he/she scream or what (if they could)?

Quarter-hour — What I am trying to figure out is whether or not there is some significance to *certain* quarter-hour time slots or not, or perhaps only during the beginning or end of certain sessions, or perhaps only at the top and bottom of ...

Sorry - here is the corrected... — HEre is corrected 'timeanalysis' spreadsheet - I was incorrect on the previous. I missed one bad trade. There were actually 27 losers, not 26 and FOUR of those were outside this quarter-hour time slot theory ...

Sure... — Sorry to be confusing. Guess I should have included the spreadsheet of trades - that would certainly make more sense. Am trading all 10 - both 30M and 1H. The 1st spreadsheet (that you saw) was only a summary of the 5 pairs and ...

Ok folks... — This is almost uncanny - am I just jumping to conclusions or do you see the same thing...? Please see attached Excel spreadsheet. I did another analysis like I did a week ago and came to the same conclusion - that 90+% of the ...

Alpari UK — Well... I guess my question/observation would be: Does Alpari UK consistently produce winners or does this go back and forth between Alpari UK and Alpari US? In the first case, perhaps we're all with the wrong broker! In the second ...

But even moreso... the same server. All of these were with FXDD. I don't know how the other brokers you all are using do it - if they only have 1 server or 10, but it might be prudent to try to make sure you're on the same live server with that ...

Same Broker differences... — I couldn't help but comment here... I have several 'live' accounts with FXDD. They run I think 7 or 8 servers. the other day I was running an EA on 3 or 4 live accounts - exact same EA, same parameters etc, and I ...

Very nice! Yes, perhaps there is something to that - it will be interesting to watch...

Sorry... that was unclear... see attached... — It was just interesting to me that these losing orders were within 5 min + or - of these times. Yes. But there were no winners generally speaking that were 'close' to these losing times, on either ...
