AccountBalance()?
sum all the relevant open order profits, https://docs.mql4.com/trading/orderprofit , then send an alert
Great it worked:
double AccountProfit();
extern string AudioPlus="news.wav";
.....
.....
if(AccountProfit()>=0)
{
PlaySound(AudioPlus);
Sleep(3000);
}
.....
.....
GREAT THANK YOU GUYS!
now it is probably a bad idea to request help on an if statement in the same post or topic ... If it is not in the correct forum or I should make new topic please kick me behind and tell me :-)
I did a sample in VB code to give a rough idea.
Dim trade as string
Dim close as string
Dim accountprofit as double
If trade = yes and close = false then
*my current ea code should come here and after that …
If accountprofit >= 0 then
trade = no
Close = true
End if
Else
If number of open trades > 0 then
Close all open trades while playing wav file
Else
Trade = true
Close = false
End if
End if
... how does on do this in MT4, I am banging my head on the floor I cant get it to work.
GOT IT! ... its working perfectly, seems like if you put your mind to it you can achieve great things!
Thank you anyway ya'll.

Ok so I have looked in your forums and cant find what i need.
I am a VB.Net coder and cant get what I did to work.
How do I get an Alert EA that will do the following:
extern double profitToAlert = 20;
If sum of all open trades equals or is more than profitToAlert then alert me by playing an mp3 file else do nothing.
Image shows the trades tab on MT4 the total I want to target is marked in red.
if someone could assist me in pointing me to where I could find these variables in I can use I would much appreciate it.
I saw it few years ago on a side screen in meta editor but I cant find it
Thank you
