EA Comment

Hi

how I can insert the EA_Name in the comment field of the terminal box.

So I see the EA_Name in the AccountHistory also.

I let run a lot of EA's on a live Account with the same lotsize, but I don't know which EA's makes the trades.

Thanks

 
Add something like this :
Comment("Your EA name");

at the start of the "start" procedure of your EA

Hello everyone.. I have a problem with this ea, it infact opens tons of positions. But the funniest thing is that if i put in the ordersend magicnumber to 0 the problem is gone, but i still need the magicnumber...

Hi Lemming,

Its not an Ea until you remove this

#property indicator_separate_window

your calling it an indicator.

 

Thanks

Hi Mladen

thanks for your fast respond

EA_Name in commentfield

Hi Mladen

I have insert the comment line, but no comments in Terminal and History

Here where I insert:

int start() {

Comment("FCM_TEST");

double l_istochastic_4;

double l_istochastic_12;

double l_istochastic_20;

double l_istochastic_28;

if (UseHourTrade) {

if (Hour() >= FromHourTrade && Hour() <= ToHourTrade) Comment("Trading Hours");

else {

Comment("Non-trading Hours");

return (0);

Thanks for help

mladen:

To have it in terminal and history you have to use

Print("FCM_TEST");

instead (but be careful since it is going to print it on every tick, so your log file can grow very much). Comment srites out only on screen, nowhere else

No Success

Hi Mladen

you are right: EA is printing every tick in the Expert Tab.

I see the comment in the Expert Tab, but not in the Terminal and History

Other Ideas ?

Try something like this:
static datetime lastPrinted=0;

if (lastPrinted!=Time[0])

{

lastPrinted = Time[0];

Print("FCM_TEST");

}

That way it will print it only on a first tick of a new bar, and not on every tick

Hi Mladen

I think with the print command the output will be in the expert folder too, and not in the comment field of the terminal how I wish. Right ?

Yes. you are right.

If I understood you correctly, you wanted it to be visible in experts tab and log file. If you want it in experts tab an log file you have to use Print(). If showing it on screen only is enough, then Comment() should be used, and then you should use it on every tick (in case if some other code is writing out a comment, your comment line will be lost). If you want them on both places (screen and experts tab/log file) then you have ti use both commands (there is no single command that will do that)
