Trailing stop 2
Please continue this in your old thread.
ubzen:
First, thank you for your help you gave me before but it seems any of them are wrong.
In my first code part here:
if (OrderType()==0 && Bid-OrderStopLoss() > 150*Point) { double SL_Buy = Bid-150*Point; bool Answer=OrderModify(OrderTicket(),OrderOpenPrice(),SL_Buy,OrderTakeProfit(),0,CLR_NONE); int timewait = TimeCurrent() + 7200; while (TimeCurrent() < timewait) { Alert("not yet"); } }
What I already know:
1. The strategy tester only use TimeCurrent() function at testing
2. The strategy tester don't use TimeLocal() and Sleep() function at testing
3. RefreshRates() is also doesn't work ( in the while cycle at least )
4. This solution is also doesn't work for me:
datetime global_updateTime = 0; int start(){ if(global_updateTime == 0 || TimeCurrent() > global_updateTime){ // do your stuff global_updateTime += 7200; }else{ // do nothing, go into next cycle } }
I fixed it to this: global_updateTime += TimeCurrent() + 7200;
and I also tried it with static global_updateTime in the start() function but it doesn't work
Please help me how can I make a trailing stop with the use of TimeCurrent()
