incrementing lotsize

New comment
 

i have the following code right now, and i want to increase the lotsize every 1000 dolllar:

for the variables:

extern bool increment=true;
extern double Incrementlevel = 1000;
extern double BaseLot = 0.1;
and in the start: 

if (increment)
{
int lotmultiple = AccountBalance()/increment;
lots = BaseLot*lotmultiple;
}

but when i run a backtest with 10000 (ten thousand) dollar, and i print the lotmultiple, it still says 10000, while it should be 10 (10000 / 1000).
What did i miss here?

How can you do AccountBalance()/increment check your DATA TYPES !!!!!

oh man :( Changed the name later, and forgot to change the other part too... duhh :)

thanks for pointing it out

 

Interestingly, the compiler type-cast boolean vrb 'increment' to int value 1, do the division, and returns result.

Seems like boolean type vrb CAN be operated on...? first time seeing this.

 

dears,

can someone send me the link to download the metaEditor 4?

thank you.
