Hi all,

I´m trying to get my head around this one, but it seems I´m too stupid.... perhaps you can help.

How do I get an indicator to look for the following thing:

-indicator (for this example I´ll chose Stochastics) has crossed above 50 (or whatever value) and is still above it.

-it has crossed above it not more than (x) bars ago (where x is definable by the user).

I´m pretty new to mt4 programming and I just can´t seem to figure out the logics behind it so I can code it. Any help is greatly appreciated!!!

THANKS!

Chris

and so on ..

And in the EA's settings:

Hi,

Is there indicator that can show my Stop Loss and Take Profit of my Broker when news come ? Indi that can show me changes of Stop Loss and Take Profit ?

Pucio

I moved your post to here as did not understand the question sorry.
Forex news MT4 indicators are on this section http://www.forex-tsd.com/news-signal-trading/

much appreciated......

How do you do a simple program with IF statements in MQL4 such as

If price=level 2 then sell.
if price= level 3 then sell
If price= level 1 or level 4, close all trades
restrict trades to 1 per level

with levels set by an indicator or manually


Sorry if this is an impertinent question but it would be good to cut to the chase and avoid learning all the colours, variables, graphics etc etc- just to be able to try out some simple ideas


an example program for the above would be fantastic

thanks

Hi all,
Is it possible, if two users are logged in with one account at the same time when open MT4 software?
Two users have different IP addresses.

Thank you.

Hi,
If I place 3 Buy stop orders ( well before hand ), will the broker honour these at times of high volatility or news time?

I am using fxdd and interbank.

Thanks for the answers

Hi people!
I've been succesfully trading for the last several months using Ichimoku in conbination with ADX, plus some stochastic configurations to pick up tiny pullbacks.

My problem is that I hate stop losses, and always would rather lock a losing position than close it. Be it good or bad, but it would be nice to have a way to automatically close a locking position should the initial one make money.

Say, I buy EURUSD at 159, set Take Profit at 160, and I put a sell stop at 158.50.
Now, if the TP works, I want Metatrader to cancel the sell stop automatically.
Is such a thing possible?

Thanks a lot

Hello,
Im creating an EA, but orders are opened multiple times per bar. For example if the CCI, in 4H bars, crosses the -100 line I buy. With a 10 pip profit I will close; however, after the close another open will occur in this same bar. How do I stop this?

A member wrote a while ago that Time[x]; x=0,1,2,3.. could be used. Unfortunately, I do not know how to implement this into my ea.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!

PS. Ive tried using this statement, but it does not seem to work.
if (OrdersHistoryTotal()>0 && TimeCurrent() - OrderCloseTime() < 4*3600) {WaitingTime=1;}
else {WaitingTime=0;}
I would use the "WaitingTime==0" in the buy parameters.

Also, a loop might be needed. The above statement is placed before the buy and close portions of the code. I think the OrderCloseTime() is just equaling 0 because the close portion of the code has not been stated before the buy portion. Sorry my programming skills are very weak. Thanks again!
