Hi guys,

I have written a piece of code to manage my EA open orders but part of it is not executing (when in loss part). Can someone help?

Here is the code (sorry, it's not nice to read it here but I don't know other way to post it):


//stop loss management
for(i=0;i<Total;i++)
{
OrderSelect(i, SELECT_BY_POS, MODE_TRADES);
if(OrderType()<=OP_SELL && // check for opened position
OrderSymbol()==Symbol()) // check for symbol
{
if (OrderLots() == Lots) //Prevent closing multiple times
{
if(OrderType()==OP_BUY) // long position is opened
{
// Move Stop
if (Bid - OrderOpenPrice () >= TakeProfitPartial * Point)
//if(true)
{
OrderModify(OrderTicket(),OrderOpenPrice(),OrderOp enPrice() + 30 * Point,OrderTakeProfit()*Point,0,Purple);//
OrderClose (OrderTicket(), LotsPartial, Bid, 30 /*Slippage*/, Yellow);


////// to close part if in loss and move take profit to b/e --NOT WORKING

if(Bid - OrderOpenPrice () <= - (TakeProfitPartial * Point))
{
OrderModify(OrderTicket(),OrderOpenPrice(),StopLos sLevel,OrderOpenPrice() +30*Point,0,Purple);//
OrderClose (OrderTicket(), LotsPartial, Bid, 30 /*Slippage*/, Yellow);
return(0);
}
}
}
else // go to short position
{
// Move Stop
if (OrderOpenPrice() - Ask >= TakeProfitPartial * Point)
//if(true)
{
OrderModify(OrderTicket(),OrderOpenPrice(),OrderOp enPrice() - 30 * Point,OrderTakeProfit()*Point,0,Purple);/////
OrderClose (OrderTicket(), LotsPartial, Ask, 30 /*Slippage*/, Yellow);

////// to close part if in loss and move take profit to b/e --NOT WORKING
if(OrderOpenPrice() - Ask <= - (TakeProfitPartial * Point))
{
OrderModify(OrderTicket(),OrderOpenPrice(),StopLos sLevel,OrderOpenPrice()-30 *Point,0,Purple);/////
OrderClose (OrderTicket(), LotsPartial, Ask, 30 /*Slippage*/, Yellow);
return(0);

}

}
}
}
}
}

It's ok. I fixed it.

Cheers!

I am using a two dimension array, say, ZigZag[2][100]. and I want to sort by the first dimension. I use the following function:

ArraySort(ZigZag,WHOLE_ARRAY,0,MODE_DESCEND);

but it seem neither sort by first dimention, nor by second dimension. is there anybody here can help me?

Thanks a lot

How can I draw MA line from my EA?

Thank you in advance
Masheco

If you want to draw a moving average line with your EA, you need to obtain the moving average value from the indicator function, then paint it onto the chart using the trend line option with the ObjectCreate() function.

Here is an example to draw the moving average trend line.
This code is executed at the close of each bar.

static double MA;
static double previousMA;


previousMA = MA;
MA=iMA(NULL,0,20,0,MODE_SMA,PRICE_CLOSE,0);

int time2=Time[0];
ObjectDelete("Tr1"+time2);
ObjectCreate("Tr1"+time2, OBJ_TREND,0,Time[0],MA,
Time[1],previousMA);
ObjectSet("Tr1"+time2, OBJPROP_COLOR,SteelBlue);
ObjectSet("Tr1"+time2, OBJPROP_RAY,false);
ObjectSet("Tr1"+time2, OBJPROP_STYLE,STYLE_SOLID);

Hello !
How can i adjust in metatrader, that he play a sound if a order was taken from the market (because SL or TP or whatever)
I can not found the settings.
Also give it a possibility to loads indicatoren automatic if i open a Chart-Window
All time i close a Chart, and reopen, all indicater and settings(Candlesticks,...) are lost, and i must import again

Thanks for Help
Wolfgang

Hello,

1- There's no sounds for SL/TP events in MetaTrader.
2- You can save all the indicators and the objects of a chart to a template then reload it when you need:
Right click the chart you want to save it as a template.
Choose Templates -> Save Template ..
Give it a name and save it.

To Load the template you saved:
Right click the chart you want to load the template on.
Choose Templates -> Load Template ..
Choose the template.

Hey,
I'm wondering if there is any simple way to reverse the trades an EA makes. I know a decent amount of MQL, but I'm not sure if there's an easier way to simply turn all buys into sells and sells into buys, reversing the logic of the trades other than editing every piece of logic. Is there any easier way of doing this?

Thanks

Try this one:

It copy trades from one MT4 to another and there is a setting that reverse trades. I never use it, so I don´t know if work fine, but it can be a option.
