Hello rosstodd,
What do you mean by "It won't verify 10 errors.." where do you see the problem occurring?
By looking at above code, I see that you don't know how to add trading logics. You need to learn how to do so properly at http://www.fxfisherman.com/forums/showthread.php?t=121

I don't know how to add trading logics - But I am not finding the trading logics in the link you gave - I see the following headers (could u direct me to the specific thread I need to read?)

I tried to make a simple EA to learn how this new software works. what I was trying to do was to set 3 EMA's on the chart - 34 H/L/C. Buy when the prices closes above the High 34 EMA and sells when price closes below Low 34 EMA (I would be adding some other perimeters at a later date).
It won't verify 10 errors..
I probably did it wrong...but...
Here is how the code came out:
