Code will nopt trigger on live mode

smika 2017.03.29 11:34

Hi,

I am trying to vreate an EA. 1 of the things the EA ust do, Is to close an order when the 3 over 5 EMA conditions are met on the open of a new candle. When I try this in the strategy tester, i looks fine, but on a live account it doesn't work. Maybe it is a slippage issue? Or is the code wrong?

//HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH//
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
//| Close when 3 crossed the 5 at begining of a new bar    |   
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
void Emaclose()

{ 
   if(!ema3over5) return;

   double ema3;
   double ema5;

   ema3 = iMA(NULL, 0, 3, 0, MODE_EMA, PRICE_OPEN, 0);
   ema5 = iMA(NULL, 0, 5, 0, MODE_EMA, PRICE_OPEN, 0);
   
   if (IsNewBar())

      for(int i = 0;i < OrdersTotal();i++) 
      {
       bool Os = OrderSelect(i, SELECT_BY_POS, MODE_TRADES);    
       if(OrderSymbol() == Symbol() && (MagicNumber == 0 || OrderMagicNumber() == MagicNumber))
         { 
          if(OrderType() == OP_BUY) 
                 {
                  if(ema3 < ema5)
                  bool Oc = OrderClose(OrderTicket(),OrderLots(),Bid,slippage_close,Blue); // close buy order 
                                  
                 }
                 
          if(OrderType() == OP_SELL)       
                 {
                  if(ema3 > ema5)
                  bool Oc =  OrderClose(OrderTicket(),OrderLots(),Ask,slippage_close,Red); // close buy order
                
                 
            }
            }

          
            
}}

The parameter slippage_close is set to 3. Maybe someone can give me some hints to let it work.

So what's my probem? When I Set all the SL settings true, all my orders will close only when 3 over 15 EMA is hit. When I set 3 over 15 to false, All the orders will be closed by 3 over 5 EMA. When I set also this one to false, all the orders will be clossed by TDI red over green. How can I tell the EA, that when all the SL settings are true, It can close on all those settings and not just only one? And why the EA will use this order, and not another order?

Get all your tests, then loop over the orders and close.

Maybe I need some sleep first :-), but can't find the issue yet. I also cganed void on tick: Entry();slmanagement();. I also share this so other people can learn from it.

calling custom indicator inside MQL4 StringToDouble always returns trade when indicator from

smika:

I changes the code, but now it doesn't use any SL :-)

If I change bool closeBuyOrders = closeBuy1 && closeBuy2 && closeBuy3 && closeBuy4; to bool closeBuyOrders = closeBuy1 || closeBuy2 || closeBuy3 || closeBuy4; It is closing my orders again. But again, only for 3 over 15. Not for the other conditions. It makes me crazy :-)

When I set 1 of the 4 close options to false, it doens't work anymore. What happens then, is that the EA opens an order and then closed the same time. How to solve this?

So Many Pips EA this works? if an Coding help

smika 2017.04.04 22:53 #8

NObody can help me, TO give a tip how to code closeBuyOrders and closeSellOrders to function normal when 1 of the 4 exits are false?

Keith Watford 2017.04.04 23:48 #9

bool closeBuy1 = (!ema3over5 || (ema3open < ema5open));

if ema3over5 is false, closeBuy1 is true

try

bool closeBuy1 = (ema3over5 && (ema3open > ema5open));

William Roeder 2017.04.05 17:11 #10

You said

smika: How can I tell the EA, that when all the SL settings are true,

Or's mean any not all.

bool closeSellOrders = (closeSell1 || closeSell2 || closeSell3 || closeSell4);

Now go and reread what I posted in #3
