Please Help!! Cant Get Expert Advisor To Work

 

Hi, I have no experience with metatrader 4 and expert advisors. I wanted to backtest a strategy and found this easy expert advisor builder website. http://sufx.core.t3-ism.net/ExpertAdvisorBuilder/

After I copy, save, and compile the expert advisor with metatrader, when I run it, I get a 130 error in the journal section. I don't have any idea what to do.

Thanks,

Rob

 

So .. you'd like us to tell you why you're getting 'invalid stops', without seeing your code (which was generated by a process not related to this site), or knowing what parameters you've got set?

It's a pity that you couldn't copy the code here. I admire your faith in our collective ability.

Well, ...

- it MIGHT be related to 4-digit Stop Loss pips for 5-digit broker

- it MIGHT be related to ECN broker (IIRC you set stops AFTER entering trade)

- it MIGHT be related to excessive Bid-Ask Spread caused by testing at weekends

- it MIGHT be a bug in the code generator

- it MIGHT be a mistake you made when generating the code

- it MIGHT be something else I haven't thought of (but others more knowledgeable than I might say)

Oh, should you decide to let us see the code that you've generated, please either 'attach' it or use the 'SRC' button so we can see it nicely formatted
