sending 'buy' command through DDE

 

Hi

I'm a newby to the DDE, I'm using a .NET DDE wrapper to connect to the MT4

so far i managed to do quote, bid, ask, high, low etc... but is it possible to also send a buy/sell commands through it?

if so, how?

Thanks!

no.

There is no API through DDE (other than reading current quotes), you need to write your own API from scratch. You need to write an EA that runs on your MT4 and then communicate with this EA (and give it commands) instead of using DDE. This will involve some work but it will be as flexible and powerful as you need it to be.
