Quote from sakimonohito:

Wareagle,

MT4 is down now so I can't load the alpari quote feed. I will try again on Monday. I don't understand how a few hours of data, not at the time of pivot calculation can affect the pivot price. Strange

I got ALpari up and running and now my s1 is 1.8020. I have readjusted the pivot time to 7 and now I've got 1.8029 which is as close as I can get to my Strategybuilder configuration. Pivot is 1.8133. I think I will try this setup this week.

It is possible that these are two different time zones. Alpari being set for Moscow time and Strategybuilder set for London time. I believe they are two timezones apart. But I'm sticking with 7 as a pivot time using alpari going forward from now on.

The MMPivot system is faring ok, a bit of a chop up on the held overs from the Monday gap though. Will continue to monitor and perhaps post more real-time trades from it.

Shaved most of my current exposure as the market isn't convinced that higher is best. See if we can hold above the gap area into tommorrow...
