Yes, it was 200 pips. It was quite a profit of fake money. I had no strategy other than knowing GBPUSD has been trending up. I was just playing around with SL and TP really.
Lol, I'm sorry I catched your post on the "New posts" section, so I didn't see where it belongs.

As for the pips I still think it was 20 and not 200.

What I think is that your broker shows you price moves in pippettes and not in pips, since your quotes are in 5 digits and not in 4.

Your platform shows 1.63890
while mine shows 1.6389.

1 Pips equals 10 pippettes so that's where maybe the confussion relies.

Take a look at it, the pair has movel a little bit more than 200 pips today, but it took the pair 15 hours to make that move, not 59 minutes.
