I don't know if I've done this correctly. I've saved as script and tried to execute when my one pip is up. The journal recorded "loaded successfully" and then "removed" the very same instant but trade did not close. I've then saved as EA and "attach to chart" and journal records successful load but still NO close. pls tell where I've gone wrong.
You've definetly not done it correctly.
Thanks for the help. Even with order selected - NO close. Did it work on your trade, Zap?
extern int TrailingStopShortScalp = 1;
extern int TrailingStopLongScalp = 1;
And then - Point*TrailingStopShortScalp
--Basically that part makes it close after 1pip of postive movement. So, if you manually open a trade and say there is a -2 pip spread on the trade. So, you open it and it is opened at 1.8888. Since that is -2 already, when it becomes 1.8891, which is just positive +1 pip profit, it will close. Of the code said:
extern int TrailingStopShortScalp = 0;
extern int TrailingStopLongScalp = 0;
It would close it right when it hit the break-even, which would be 1.8890. Hope that makes sense.
If this doesn't work for some reason, let me know. Like if you want to just try it and watch it (manually close it if it doesn't automatically do it). Enjoy.
1) If I want to change the break even pips from 1 to 10, could I easily make it by changing the value 0 to 10 like this :
extern int TrailingStopShortScalp = 1; ---> extern int TrailingStopShortScalp = 10 , isn't it ?
extern int TrailingStopLongScalp = 1; extern int TrailingStopLongScalp = 10
2) There are three Models in Expert Advisor and confuse how to chose :
- " Every Tick (based on available least timeframes with fractal interpolation of every thick) "
- " Control Points (based on the nearest less timeframes with fractal interpolation of 12 control points)
- " Open price only (fastest method to analyze the bar just completed)
What I must to chose ? Thanks!
Would you write me to forexzap AT gmail DOT com please, I am interested too.
I have a broker with an institutional price feed that i negotiated for personal use. Perhaps we should talk about this. I'm looking for a good scalper that grabs one pip per trade. I have 1 pip spreads on EUR and JPY. Many times the spreads are 0.
Hi, I do also have access to an institutional price feed and I am working on a scalper as well, so I thought we could share some ideas and experience.
You can directly contact me at latiz01 AT yahoo DOT com.
One of the things is to trade only if the spread is less than 1 or so, but I was wondering if it's possible since MT4 was designed mostly for fixed spread.
Do you think it is possible to write a condition in the EA such as this one?
