How can I run the SCRIPT under EXPERT ADVISOR ? (/0-0\)

New comment
 

for example:


We have CloseAllLosses.mq4 script located in C:\Program Files\FXClearing\experts\scripts

On the other hand we have started Expert Advisor on EURUSD pair 30 min chart...


When the Loss is grater than 50 pips then I would like to close opened orders.


How can I refference to the CloseAllLosses.mq4 script in MQL CODE ?

 

I think scripts and EAs can only be invoked manually by attaching them to the charts. Therefore, you cannot call a script from an EA's code, but you can call custom indicators.


One approach to use closealllosses.mq4 is to insert it as a function of you EA:-

1. open script code

2. rename its sart() function to start_close_all_losses()

3. copy and past the script code inside your EA

4. In the EA's logic where you detect that orders must be closed, call function start_close_all_losses()



Inside mql4 framework you can create libraries of functions that can be shared by distinct EAs, e.g if function start_close_all_losses(), and any function you want, is defined inside a library, it can be invoked by any EA
