Would anyone be willing to code this EA to work at Smart Trade FX?

Here is the location where I downloaded it: https://www.mql5.com/go?link=http://www.fxstreet.com/metatrader/addons/ccde1717-6b80-4679-8fe2-639a8ee28547

Thank you! I very much appreciate it.

adding a zero on the end of each take profit and stop would be a solution if you can't code it

also, u may need to send the order withouut TP & SL & use OrderModify() for SL & TP

I found 100 pips a day expert advisor by Metaquotes and it works great, except with 5 digit brokers. Would anyone be willing to code it for a 5 digit broker?

Just add a zero onto the the TP & SL settings in the EA Sherry. Hence for 31, enter 310 etc.
 

The performance of the EA seems good, as shown in the picture:


However, the EA has no protective stop loss at all. Each trade goes on indefinitely loosing until it reaches the profit level, at which the trailing stop starts working.

Adding a variation of 3% in price as stop loss (that is, for a buy stop_loss= Ask – 0.03*Ask), and setting the lot to the minimum possible, the result is as shown in the picture:


My recommendation is that you test heavily any offered EAs in demo, as they are usually not profitable. Start with micro or Lots if you want to play with real money (in a regulated broker).

You need to modify TP, SL and slippage.
//++++ 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

can u please tell me were to paste this code in ea

 
Somewhere at the beginning. Then modify the code where you convert pips to doubles or points. No Slaves here, learn to code or pay someone. We're not going to code it FOR you. We are willing to HELP you.
 
In my opinion, the equity graph matters a lot more than the balance graph, despite what some people think. I would assume that the EA under consideration is one of the many that suffer large equity drawdowns that are invisible in the balance graph because of high risk (or suicidal) money management. The main problem is that as well as a good chance of steady profits, there is very likely a sizeable chance of a margin call wiping out most of your account.

extern double Lots = 0.01;


// int init
double gdPoint;

int init()
{
//----

gdPoint = Point;
// check if we are on a 5 digit broker
if(Digits==3||Digits==5){
gdPoint = gdPoint*10;
Slippage =Slippage*10;
lTrailingStop= lTrailingStop*10;
}


//----
return(0);

}



put this in the ea from the line extern double Lots = 5;

so you replace this line with the new line at the top of this code

and that will load on any broker

return(0);

so you replace this line with the new line at the top of this code

and that will load on any broker

and to add on you may need to replace Point with gdPoint every where in the code
