Creating composite key with multiple foreign keys from same table EF code first

Hey all,

I am having an issue with Code first on EF6.

I get this error when trying to create a migration "The number of properties in the Dependent and Principal Roles in a relationship constraint must be identical."

Here is the code:

public class TradeJournal
   {
       [Key, Column(Order = 0)]
       public int UserID { get; set; }
       [ForeignKey("UserID")]
       public UserAccount UserAccount { get; set; }

       [Key, Column(Order = 1)]
       public int AccountNumber { get; set; }
       [ForeignKey("AccountNumber")]
       public FxAccount FxAccount { get; set; }

       [Key, Column(Order = 2),ForeignKey("OpenTime")]
       public string OpenTime { get; set; }
       public HistoricalTrade HistoricalTrades { get; set; }

       [Key, Column(Order = 3), ForeignKey("CloseTime")]
       public string CloseTime { get; set; }
       public HistoricalTrade HistoricalTrade { get; set; }
       public string Entry { get; set; }

       public byte[] Image { get; set; }
   }

Which is referencing this class here:

public class HistoricalTrade
  {
      [Key, Column(Order = 0)]
      public int UserID { get; set; }
      [ForeignKey("UserID")]
      public UserAccount UserAccount { get; set; }

      [Key, Column(Order = 1)]
      public int AccountNumber { get; set; }
      [ForeignKey("AccountNumber")]
      public FxAccount FxAccount { get; set; }

      [Key, Column(Order = 2)]
      [JsonProperty("openTime")]
      public string OpenTime { get; set; }

      [Key, Column(Order = 3)]
      [JsonProperty("closeTime")]
      public string CloseTime { get; set; }



  }

I am trying to create a composite key made with two foreign keys (OpenTime,CloseTime) referencing the same table (HistoricalTrade).
I am losing my mind lol.
This was my latest attempt at it, making historicalTrade referenced twice, one with an s and one without.I am doing anything at this point.
Anyone have an idea how to fix this issue? And for bonus points, explain the error I am getting in simpler terms so I may learn what is being referenced(IE: What is a Dependent Role, Principal Role, and relationship constraint (though I am guessing this is just FKs)?).

I do feel like one of my "have tried" resources may have had an answer that I just didn't implement correct simply because I failed to understand how to implement it :/

What I have tried:

Reading this DataAnnotations - ForeignKey Attribute in EF 7 & EF Core[^]

Reading this DataAnnotations - InverseProperty Attribute in Code-First[^]

This one as well : asp.net mvc - Defining multiple Foreign Key for the Same table in Entity Framework Code First - Stack Overflow[^]

And this :c# - Entity Framework Code First - two Foreign Keys from same table - Stack Overflow[^]

Also this : Multiple Relationships/Foreign Keys Between Two Tables (in Classes) | The ASP.NET Forums[^]

And a few other SO post that I don't have the link for any more (or remember what I typed for the search result).

I attempted using Inverse Property but it didn't make sense in my specific case on how to implement this correctly?
I've changed it to a virtual HistoricalTrade and made both foreign keys = "HistoricalTrade" while naming it HistoricalTrade_OpenTime, for example. Didn't work.

I am at a loss here.
Any help appreciated.
