QUESTION ABOUT KIMIV'S CODE

[prosper1]

Hi,

I have put this code in my EA' s code but it seems it doesn't work. I ask myself if is code works ? It really stops EA after loss or does other things ? Sorry for this question but i begin in programmation.

This is the code :

Function NumberOfLossPosToday():

A strange overly complex function... nevertheless, appears to now work with just 2 mods.

Use below - a fast test gave output of 6 - since all initially open at a loss...

Lines altered are commented out with "//" and have highlighted also removed syntax

Please see after code for test results and test code used.
