OK, thanks jcl! Didn't even bother to install the FXCM platform, all I ever wanted to do is to evaluate Zorro.

Wingio: the image must be on an external server, you can then place an image link in your post. OK, I got it. Thanks

OK, opened a new account with fxcm.co.uk last week, and have just started (non-nfa) Z1fx trading. We'll see later today or maybe tomorrow if there are any trades.

24 hours have passed without a single trade. I repeat, this is an UK FXCM account, thus non-NFA. Z1fx is definitely not working here. I guess I'll wait for 1.06 in the hope that the issue gets fixed.

Aside from the gap caused by starting the system on a Sunday, the output looks normal - what's the problem? If you can't wait 24 hours for getting rich, a bank robbery might be preferable to trading . Strategies don't trade all the time. They trade only when they get a trade signal. There might be no activity for weeks. If there were a problem, you'd see an error message such as "Can't open trade".

He he, I'm certainly not trying to get rich, at least not at this time. Demo accounts are known to be problematic if you wan't to get rich. This looks a lot like my previous run of Z1fx when it didn't get a single trade in a week. I'm aware that it's H4 timeframe and thus candles are generated slowly, but still... it's a portfolio?! I left it running undisturbed, so we'll see... If wingino is still trading it, he probably got many trades in the meantime, if only I knew what's different in his setup.

For how long you think it should run without a single trade, before you get suspicious that something is actually wrong? Would a full week do?
BTW, I never saw a skipped trade message. Beside printing the current price every 4 hours, Zorro is completely silent on me. I'll let it run uninterrupted 'til the market close on Friday, no problem, but nothing will happen in the meantime, I'm pretty sure.
