Can I work  Open & Close button EA in Strategy Tester Visualization ?

Yes it is possible.

You must check the button state in OnTick() because OnChartEvent() doesn't work for EA's in strategy tester.

Post your code that you are having problems with.

You need to check the state of the button (whether it is on or off) in OnTick(). 

Uncompiled / Untested:

int OnInit()
  {


   buy_anniu("BUY",White,100,100,"buy");
   return(INIT_SUCCEEDED);
  }

  
void OnTick()
  {
   if(ObjectGetInteger(0,"BUY",OBJPROP_STATE))
     {
      place_buy();
      ObjectSetInteger(0,"BUY",OBJPROP_STATE,false);
     }
  }

//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
//|                                                                  |
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
void OnChartEvent(const int id,const long &lparam,const double &dparam,const string &sparam)
  {
   if(id==CHARTEVENT_OBJECT_CLICK)
     {  
      if(sparam=="BUY") place_buy();
     }
  }

//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
//|                                                                  |
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
void place_buy()
  {
   MqlTradeRequest request={0};
   MqlTradeResult  result={0};
   request.order=miss_B_ticket;
   request.action=TRADE_ACTION_DEAL;
   request.symbol=Symbol();
   request.type=ORDER_TYPE_BUY;
   request.volume=lots;
   request.deviation=100;
   request.price=SymbolInfoDouble(Symbol(),SYMBOL_ASK);
   request.comment="xxxxx";
   request.magic=12345;

   if(!OrderSend(request,result))
      PrintFormat("OrderSend error %d",GetLastError());
   PrintFormat("retcode=%u  deal=%I64u  order=%I64u",result.retcode,result.deal,result.order);
  }

//------------------------------------------------------------------------------Buy
void buy_anniu(string name,color yanse,int x,int y,string text,int changdu=0)
  {
   cc.ObjectCreateMQL4(name,OBJ_BUTTON,0,0,0);
   ObjectSetInteger(0,name,OBJPROP_COLOR,yanse);
   ObjectSetInteger(0,name,OBJPROP_BGCOLOR,clrCrimson);
   ObjectSetInteger(0,name,OBJPROP_XDISTANCE,140);
   ObjectSetInteger(0,name,OBJPROP_YDISTANCE,40);
   if(changdu==0)
     {
      int as=StringLen(text);
      ObjectSetInteger(0,name,OBJPROP_XSIZE,as*40);
     }
   else
     {
      ObjectSetInteger(0,name,OBJPROP_XSIZE,changdu);

   ObjectSetString(0,name,OBJPROP_FONT,"Microsoft JhengHei");
   ObjectSetString(0,name,OBJPROP_TEXT,text);
   ObjectSetInteger(0,name,OBJPROP_FONTSIZE,30);
   ObjectSetInteger(0,name,OBJPROP_BORDER_COLOR,clrCrimson);
   ObjectSetInteger(0,name,OBJPROP_CORNER,0);

Thank you. That’s impressive!

 The  button can work in  strategy tester.
