Michel:
This seems wrong:

IND2_line1 = iIND2_line1(NULL,0,0,MODE_MAIN,0);

IND2_line2 = iIND2_line2(NULL,0,0,MODE_SIGNAL,0);[/CODE]

Where are such functions ?

Ok, my IND2 has 2 lines crossing one another at some time. As per MQL4 documentation for that particular indicator, [CODE]double iIND2( string symbol, int timeframe, int period, int mode, int shift)

This way,

string symbolis NULL for the current symbol;

int timeframeis 0 for current timeframe;

int periodis 0 b/c I don't need anything to be calculated, they simply have to be crossing one another;

int modeis MODE_MAIN b/c that indicator has both MAIN and SIGNAL modes;

int shiftis 0 for the phase shift b/c I don't need to be looking at any previous value of that indicator.

What seems wrong?

When I backtest my EA, it gives out error message

2008.01.25 19:39:02 TestGenerator: unmatched data error (high value 1.4674 at 2008.01.24 11:23 and price 1.4675 mismatched)[/CODE]and [CODE]2008.01.25 19:49:30 TestGenerator: unmatched data error (volume limit 85 at 2008.01.17 22:45 exceeded)

Also, how to I specify closure of the order when the TP is reached? Logically, TP = close and take profit, but I'm not sure.

Maybe you should read over your question(?) again - you could actually look at it as a rhetorical post!

Anyway, the error are caused by price mis-matches between different timeframes - not really a problem unless you get loads of these. To get rid of them you would need to delete and re-generate the pairs that give problems, via the History center. Your TP question makes no sense.

Code for trading only specific pairs only?

Newdigital or anyone else:

I have an EA that says: "Trades Authorized On EURUSD Only!" on chart comment.

How can I get it to trade on other pairs? How do I change the code in EA to trade on other paris?

Thanks in advance!
