psar bug 7:

Opens and closes orders using parabolic sar signals.

Author: Tonny Obare

 
int    digits=MarketInfo("EURUSD",MODE_DIGITS);
if(digits==5){StopMultd=10;} else{StopMultd=1;}

There are a lot of accounts with added to the currency a prefix or suffix. In that case......

int openbuy=OrderSend(Symbol(),OP_BUY,Lots,Ask,Slip,NormalizeDouble(Ask-SL*Point,Digits),NormalizeDouble(Ask+TP*Point,Digits),"psar bug 6 order ",MagicNumber);//Opening Buy
int opensell=OrderSend(Symbol(),OP_SELL,Lots,Bid,Slip,NormalizeDouble(Bid+SL*Point,Digits),NormalizeDouble(Bid-TP*Point,Digits),"psar bug 6 order ",MagicNumber);//Opening Sell

Still no coding for working on ECN accounts

//-------------------------------------------------------------------+
//Check open orders
//-------------------------------------------------------------------+
if(OrdersTotal()>0){
  for(int i=1; i<=OrdersTotal(); i++)          // Cycle searching in orders
     {
      if (OrderSelect(i-1,SELECT_BY_POS)==true) // If the next is available
        {
          if(OrderMagicNumber()==MagicNumber) {int halt1=1;}
        }
     }
}

Why not selecting on OrderSymbol and OrderMagicnumber...

With trailing you're not selecting the OrderMagicNumber....

ONLY GOOD FOR BACKTESTING ......

Attention all users! This expert advisor of mine of which i have worked hard to provide 100% free is provided as is and free things cant always satisfy personal requirements of everyone. Happy now :-) anyway to get serious im stopping further development on psar bug to concentrate on xbug and our premium scripts. For any other custom modifications please contact me i send you a quote but this is pretty much the last or second last psar bug.
 
devries you also might wana read the full psar bug documentation http://www.fxautomated.com/docs/psarbugdoc.php to understand this EA better. The magic number is editable by the user making it more flexible thus its enough to only select magic number only and not ordersymbol too since on different charts, timeframes etc the user can set a different magic number afterall thats the work of magic number otherwise i would'nt have made it editable on the user side.

But if you read this code your EA your not selecting Magicnumber with trailing. In this case trades of same currencie found in your orderselect with another magicnumber will be modified by the rules of this EA.... Trie it out if you don't believe me....

When you attach the ea and the settings dialogue appears there is a tab called "common" this tab also has settings for live trading and manual confirmation please check if "allow live trading" is checked and "ask manual confirmation" should be unchecked.

Actually this ea works better without trailing i just added it there as an option because of a user requested it and this is why i prefer handling personal customisations separately.
 

Hi Tonny,

Yes, under 'Common Tab' I have 'Live Trading' checked and 'Manual Confirmation' unchecked.

I tested it on the 1M and 5M GBP/USD charts, no orders are opening automatically, no error messages in Journal.

Works perfectly with Manual Confirmation though. Any other suggestions, please let me know...

Thanks
