I placed an EA in the correct folder etc...but with a demo account from Alpari UK it has 5 decimal places and doesn't work...I tried it in another demo account (4 decimal places) and works fine...i checked the code and couldn't find anywhere that specifies 4 or 5 decimal places...not sure how to make it run with Alpari UK...I contacted them and they said contact the coder...not much help...
Anyway, any advice would be greatly appreciated guys...thanks again

Some Ea could work with 5 digits by adding a 0 to the values.
eg: for 50 pips stop set a 500 value. If fails the code needs to adapted.
Hello, CodersGuru! It is very kind to share your knowledge with everybody.
I'm pretty sure that people like you, who give without demanding anything in reward, always have new and great ideas! There are many good examples of this in the entire history.
Would someone be so kind as to tell me what i'm doing wrong here please? Its a sell script, but just doesn't seem to work. Basically, i'm using a pivot method. The only entry the user puts in is the price of the pivot. The script then takes 2% of the account ballance and divides it by the number of pips from the bid to the pivot, which in turn gives the lotsize. The script then creates a sell order based on this information.
All feedback would be welcome.

i've seen this ea before but dunno where, better give full scripts..
I am trying to modify an indicator to place trades. Beside inserting the Order commands, what do I need to change to let MT4 know it is an EA? My program simply does not load/respond when I try to load it as an EA.
Also, where should I look to find this answer without bothering you experienced programmers?
, better give full scripts..
Linear Mode
