Vladimir thank you very much, you are so quick to answer questions !!!!
Can I ask you another question?
When I set stoploss or take profit in this EA, for some reason it is set very far away. Probably I have 5 decimal places, but in the EA 4. Could you please check this too, because I have incorrectly set these orders on the default settings.
Thanks.
I set all stops to four digits. I do not intend to change this behaviour. I will explain why: let's say you have a five-digit order and you try to set stop 5 (without setting it to four digits). This means you will get inside the spread. As a result, the position will be instantly closed by the stop loss.
That is why I bring stops to four digits. In general, bringing stops to four digits is fool-proof.
By the way, I recommend version 1.012 - it fixes the problem of EA crashing due to reinitialisation of the risk class.

Thanks, I didn't know about it, and thanks for the new version of the EA. I understand that you need to set stoplosses and takeprofits 10 times smaller, if necessary.
Thank you.

Did you notice: I added the code - now you can see the indicators on your chart, which settings you specified in the Expert Advisor?

Vladimir, is it possible to add a trailing stop to this Expert Advisor by bollinger lines or % APR?
I'm just testing it now I don't set stoploss and take profit, but only trailing stop. It kicks out a bit.

Bollinger Bands:
Average True Range
Here are these two indicators (one is a trend indicator, the other is an oscillator). How do you propose to trailing on one of them?

Hello Vladimir. For ATR trailing stop is its initial value in per cent of the value on the current chart. And for the bollinger, if Buy, then trailing is lower than the lower boundary by a given number of points, if Sell, then vice versa. Stop Loss can also be done this way, right? Like this.
Thank you.

I don't understand about ATR at all.

Vladimir, in the tester report there is a value:InpMAMAMethodFirst and digits 1-2-3-0. I understand this is the Moving Average method, but how can I understand which digit means what?

Do you mean these numbers

On ATR, let's say on a five-minute chart ATR with period 1 shows the movement on the candle 5min, that is the candle stroke, if we take 2 ATR, it will be the price movement for 2 candles. For APR 1 the highest value for the day, we take it as 100%. In trailing settings, we set % of this value. If 100% then trailing will have the value of ATR 1, and if 125% then the value of 1.4.
The figures in the tester's account are these:
How can I find out what method the average is using?

How to find out by number which method the average has?
Remember the number and then calculate it in the input parameters (in the tester the input parameters are numbered in order).
