I downloaded an indicator called modtrade, it plot fine when you first place it on a chart, but it will not update correctly in real time, could someone help me to correct this?

hello

How to check if the order was closed by TP OR SL ?


master001

Someone gave me this coding in the past and I tried to work with it. It gives me errors dealing with the ' + ' after PipsProfit. Can someone debug this for me please! With sincere appreciation in advance for your assistance.

Dave

The + after PipsProfit shouldn't be there at all. It is being used in a comparison NOT an incremental function. You're ASKING does PipsProfit equal Bid - etc etc ?

Try this...

Good Luck

The problem is that there is no space between PipsProfit and '+' and a space between '=' and '+' ...... - in other words it should be like this ->

You also should include the second 'Profit += OrderProfit();' in the code (remove those '//')

I know an EA can be coded to only trade Demo accounts. Can I also code an EA NOT to trade on PAMM accounts? This would allow the EA to trade on live accounts, but not be used for money managers to trade PAMM accounts - unless there was a separate license agreement.

Hi,

for an indicator I use I have to set the digits for each symbol. I do this in the code with e.g.
Now I like to spin these symbols off to an extern variable so that the user can set his symbols for himself. I thought to add sth. like
How can I use this comma separated list of symbols and split it out so I can use it again in the indicator code like shown above (if(Symbol()=="GBPJPY"....)?

(Or is there a better solution for this "digits problem" out there?)

Thanks

perfect, thx!

Got it working thanks to both of you. Really appreciate it!

Dave
