I was getting results that are way better than anything i have before so it made me very suspicious/cautious, and as you say good thing I looked into it a little deeper.

Mostly bummed that I cannot back test accurately on this kind of chart!

Thanks for your responses Kevnkdog

Yes, the old adage "if it looks too good to be true, it probably is" definitely holds true with any backtests you see...

Thank you again...
Do you have any code that works for placing an order from a Open or Close + an x amount of pips?
I cant seem to get the limit or stop orders to work.

Or maybe they dont show up under simulation. When I run it, it shows the entry at the open or close not the offset of x number of pips.

any ideas?

I think I just figured it out....finally

this is the code that seems to be working.
the delay parameter is 10 pips.
