'\end_of_program' - unbalanced left parenthesis (error)

pete36 · #1 (**permalink**) 11-24-2006, 12:11 AM

I am programming an EA...when compiling, i got the following message:

'\end_of_program' - unbalanced left parenthesis

Is there anyone who can help me sort it out or is there any documentation that i can read -- "hints and tips" (couldn't find any on this type of error!)

Please let me know, thanks.

unbalanced left parenthesis <- this is the answer
Maybe you forgot ( or ) or { or }
for example:
Print(hi;
Print hi);

Hi Coders Guru,

I checked it again and again and again...could not find the missing parenthesis!!
If you can have a look at it, i would really appreciate it.
Thanks

This code needs three days to correct!
Some of notes:

PHP Code:


			
if(OrderSymbol() == Symbol() && OrderType()==OP_BUY); <-- No semicolon in the line of IF

PHP Code:


			
 if (TakeProfit=0) Target=0; <-- Use == not =

I corrected it for you to compare it with yours! But I'm not sure it's a woking code!

Thanks a lot, really appreciate it!!!!

this EA still needs a lot of calibration and adjustments - thats just the start - i needed to go over this error to do the rest - thanks again and again and again

the EA is error free now, but you are right it is not working. I have to figure it out

It is great stuff, your MQL4 tutorial, in a week or so, i am now able to understand and read a code...but still i need to get the details right...
