In principle you would only need to change the string "EURCHF" to be "EURUSD". I.e., to work with long "EURUSD" versus short "EURUSD".

Thanks for your reply but I have tried to no avail. The code you provided has taught me and my girlfriend much about how little we know about programming!

Thankyou very much!

Hmm. The only "badness" I can see upfront is the test "v == cut", which compares two double numbers for equality. Perhaps it works better to only look at the full $ amounts, and thus change "euprofit", "ecprofit", "cut" and "v" to be of "int" type?

Ok, I use Comment() command..

Hi all

This is a great thread for someone like me who knows nothing about programming. It has much useful information and many little peices of code I could copy and play with.

I hope someone could help me out with this peice.I want to make an EA based on price. What do I enter in the code to tell the following:

1) I want the EA to look at price at 20:00 on the hour chart and see what it's relation is to the 100sma.

2)If price is above the 100sma, I want it to open 2 buy orders at certain level.

3) These levels are based on the closing price of the 16:00 candle, so if the 16:00 candle is 1.2000, I want it to open a buy at 1.1120 and 1.2080

I have the stops and trailing stops and profit levels all worked out and stuff, all codes taken from this thred. So I thank those who posted them. I

I will be forever debted if someone could help me out here.
Kind regards
Susan

Hi, everyone

I tried to create an EA, and I got the following error message:

'\end_of_program' - ending bracket '}' expected C:\...\My_First_EA.mq4(96,1)

I double-clicked it, get to the line, then check it with opening-ending brackets prior to it, and still don't know where I made mistake.

This is the second EA I tried, with the same error message, based on the same indicator.

Thank you.

hello to everybody!

could someone tell me how to creat a condition like:

.......
while(when the price of GBP/USD>2.0000)

{.......}

.......

THANKS A LOTS!

It is something with iOpen, iClose and so on.

For example:

1. It is open price for previous bar, M5 timeframe. Current symbol (pair on the chart.

2. It is close price for the previous bar (1), H1 timeframe (PERIOD_H1), for GBPUSD.

3. and in the setting:
It is close price for GBPUSD for pr bar (selectable in the settings) for Pt timeframe (selectable in the selling. Default is previous bar (pr=1) and default is M5 timeframe (Pt=5) in the settings.

Thanks a lot!
