Yet another silly weekend question

I know this is a stupid question, but I'm really new at this. I apologize in advance for being dumb.


My automatic trading program issued a buy about two hours before the broker closed down for the weekend (at least I think that's what happened). Do I have to keep my computer on all weekend with MetaTrader up so this trade will continue when things start happening again - like when the broker wakes up on Monday?


Thank anyone for any information provided.

Interview with Rich

If the market goes flat and we all are brought to a stand, I will take the first place, and the Top Three will be the same as it is now. But, judging by the widening of Bollinger Bands, the year is not expected to be closed calmly. So the fortune will shuffle all of use many times within the resting few days.

No, u haven't. And don't forget to turn on ur computer on Monday :)) (maybe ur EA control all open positions so if u don't turn on ur computer u may have some problems).

Thanks for your answer, seifer! I think I'll just keep it on rather than have to worry about whether I'm doing something wrong. Besides, I don't get up until around ten o'clock EDT, so I could be missing a lot. Thanks again, dragonmom

Hi seifer,

Actually market opens on sunday afternoon, not monday, therefore you MUST turn on your your EA on sunday in the case that you are using trailing stops. If you aren't you can check it out on monday.

Good luck,
