extern double TakeProfit = 400; extern double TrailingStop = 200; extern int Pips=150; extern int SecureProfit=100;
this code above u need to change
but i'm not sure the problem is 5 digits i think the problem is here
extern int EndYear=2006; //because of if (TimeYear(CurTime())>EndYear) { return(0); }
this code above u need to change

Thanks very much, I did change the start yea and end year and it worked with the 4 digit broker.It didnt work with 5 dgit broker though so i would try adding and extra 0 to the the lots, pis and trailing stop and see what happens
Search the forum... there are plenty of examples of code to handle this... Whroeder posts an example at least 2-3 times a week answering this kind of thing.

Thanks very much, I did change the start yea and end year and it worked with the 4 digit broker.It didnt work with 5 dgit broker though so i would try adding and extra 0 to the the lots, pis and trailing stop and see what happens
the thing can be 2 optinos
1) by the broker u r using the Minimum permitted amount of a lot is 0.1 & not 0.01
2) u should chande the OrderSend() without ST & TP & then use OrderModify() for ST & TP
//++++ These are adjusted for 5 digit brokers. double pips2points, // slippage 3 pips 3=points 30=points pips2dbl; // Stoploss 15 pips 0.0015 0.00150 int Digits.pips; // DoubleToStr(dbl/pips2dbl, Digits.pips) int init(){ if (Digits == 5 || Digits == 3){ // Adjust for five (5) digit brokers. pips2dbl = Point*10; pips2points = 10; Digits.pips = 1; } else { pips2dbl = Point; pips2points = 1; Digits.pips = 0; } // OrderSend(... Slippage.Pips * pips2points, Bid - StopLossPips * pips2dbl
You must adjust TP, SL, and slippage.mylotsi=NormalizeDouble(mylotsi*2,2); }
This will not work unless lot step == 0.01minLot = MarketInfo(Symbol(), MODE_MINLOT), LotStep = MarketInfo(Symbol(), MODE_LOTSTEP); size = MathFloor(size/LotStep)*LotStep; if (size < minLot){ // Insufficient margin.
- You must adjust TP, SL, and slippage.
- This will not work unless lot step == 0.01
