Trail Stop Issue with 4 decimal place

New comment
 

Below is my trail stop code, its work with JPY Pair which is like

1.33867 (EUR/USD) trail stop can work

98.60 (USD/JPY) trail stop can work

1.4137 - can't work

What is wrong with my code that EUR AUD cant work with trail stop


extern int TrailingStop=9;
extern double StopLoss = 0;
 double PointValue;
  for (int i = 0; i < OrdersTotal(); i++) 
  {
      OrderSelect(i, SELECT_BY_POS, MODE_TRADES);
      //Calculate the point value in case there are extra digits in the quotes
      if (MarketInfo(OrderSymbol(), MODE_POINT) == 0.00001) PointValue = 0.0001;
      else if (MarketInfo(OrderSymbol(), MODE_POINT) == 0.0001) PointValue = 0.001;
      else if (MarketInfo(OrderSymbol(), MODE_POINT) == 0.001) PointValue = 0.01;
      else PointValue = MarketInfo(OrderSymbol(), MODE_POINT);
      //Normalize trailing stop value to the point value
      double TSTP = TrailingStop * PointValue;
 
//Alert("Point value is " + PointValue);
 
      if (OrderType() == OP_BUY)
      {
         if (Bid - OrderOpenPrice() > TSTP)
         {
            if (OrderStopLoss() < Bid - TSTP)
            {
               if (!OrderModify(OrderTicket(), OrderOpenPrice(), Bid - TSTP, OrderTakeProfit(), Red))
                  Print("Error setting Buy trailing stop: ", GetLastError());
            }
         }
         else if ((OrderStopLoss() != Bid - StopLoss * PointValue) && (StopLoss != 0))
            if (!OrderModify(OrderTicket(), OrderOpenPrice(), Bid - StopLoss * PointValue, OrderTakeProfit(), Red))
               Print("Error setting Buy stop-loss: ", GetLastError());
      }
      else if (OrderType() == OP_SELL)
      {
         if (OrderOpenPrice() - Ask > TSTP)
         {
            if ((OrderStopLoss() > Ask + TSTP) || (OrderStopLoss() == 0))
            {
               if (!OrderModify(OrderTicket(), OrderOpenPrice(), Ask + TSTP, OrderTakeProfit(), Red))
                  Print("Error setting Sell trailing stop: ", GetLastError());
            }
         }
         else if ((OrderStopLoss() != Ask + StopLoss * PointValue) && (StopLoss != 0))
            if (!OrderModify(OrderTicket(), OrderOpenPrice(), Ask + StopLoss * PointValue, OrderTakeProfit(), Red))
               Print("Error setting Sell stop-loss: ", GetLastError());
      }
        }

what is this ??

you do ??


I did that . But still can't work. did i do wrongly?
  
  for (int i = 0; i < OrdersTotal(); i++) //count down
  {
      OrderSelect(i, SELECT_BY_POS, MODE_TRADES);
      //Calculate the point value in case there are extra digits in the quotes
      if (MarketInfo(OrderSymbol(), MODE_POINT) == 0.00001) PointValue = 0.0001;
      else if (MarketInfo(OrderSymbol(), MODE_POINT) == 0.0001) PointValue = 0.001;
      else if (MarketInfo(OrderSymbol(), MODE_POINT) == 0.001) PointValue = 0.01;
      else PointValue = MarketInfo(OrderSymbol(), MODE_POINT);
      //Normalize trailing stop value to the point value
      double TSTP = TrailingStop * PointValue;

normally we do 

double  MinLots,MaxLots,LotStep,StopLevel;
//++++ These are adjusted for 5 digit brokers.
int     pips2points;      // slippage  3 pips    3=points    30=points
double  pips2dbl;         // Stoploss 15 pips    0.015      0.0150
int     Digits.pips;      // DoubleToStr(dbl/pips2dbl, Digits.pips)
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+

//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
//| expert initialization function                                   |
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
int init()
  {
//----
   if(Digits % 2 == 1)  // DE30=1/JPY=3/EURUSD=5 forum.mql4.com/43064#515262
     {pips2dbl = Point*10; pips2points = 10;   Digits.pips = 1;}
     else {pips2dbl = Point;    pips2points =  1;   Digits.pips = 0;}
     // OrderSend(... Slippage.Pips * pips2points, Bid - StopLossPips * pips2dbl        
//----

to get pips2dbl value

 OrderDigit = (MarketInfo(OrderSymbol(), MODE_DIGITS);

if ( OrderDigit  % 2 == 1) {pips2dbl = Point*10;}

  else  {pips2dbl = Point;  }
  
 for (int i = 0; i < OrdersTotal(); i++) 
  {
      OrderSelect(i, SELECT_BY_POS, MODE_TRADES);

      if (MarketInfo(OrderSymbol(), MODE_POINT) == 0.00001) PointValue = 0.0001;
:
      double TSTP = TrailingStop * PointValue;
      if (OrderType() == OP_BUY)
      {
         if (Bid - OrderOpenPrice() > TSTP)
  1. Always count down Loops and Closing or Deleting Orders - MQL4 forum
  2. What are Function return values ? How do I use them ? - MQL4 forum
  3. Since you are NOT filtering by magic number and/or pair you can only run it on one chart.
  4. Assume you are running on EURUSD and find an order on USDJPY. Bid = 1.33867 (current EURUSD rates) OrderOpenPrice = 98.60 (a USDJPY rates) and PointValue=0.01 (USDJPY pip value) Can this work?:
          double TSTP = TrailingStop * PointValue;
      if (Bid - OrderOpenPrice() > TSTP)
          double TSTP = 9 * 0.001;
      if (1.33867 - 98.60 > 0.009)
          double TSTP = 9 * 0.001;
      if (-97.26133 > 0.009)

 
It still does not work.. As in I don't know how to fix it
 
If the selected order is not the current chart pair, you can not use any predefined variables.

I only run EUR/AUD at my mt4, the other pair are running at other mt4
 
You are selecting ALL orders - no filters

Why do you have this?

else if (MarketInfo(OrderSymbol(), MODE_POINT) == 0.0001) PointValue = 0.001;

This condition will be true for any symbol with 4 digits and the trailing stop will be your expected TS*10

 
Issue resolve. Thanks !
