Hello,

I'm backtesting your EA and found something I don't understand about TP and SL levels.

First of all: 

If make a run with all default params i can't see no SL nor TP set during order placement, nor I see ordermodify operations.

I've forced the mt4ecn to false even if I'm on a 5 digits and now the SL is regullary set during order placement but not the TP.

Second (and what puzzles me more):

There is no way to see TP and SL dinamically move when AutomaticTakeProfit=true and AutomaticStopLoss=true.

Taking a look to the modif() function I can't see how it could change them!! There is no if(opttp && autsl)  that does the trailing.

The only chance you have is that the ordermodify goes wrong and it has to reiterate entering the last if.

Am I wrong? 

int modif() //--function: OrderModify for MT4 ECN to put Order SL and TP
   {
      //----
      int merr;
      bool mrest;
      total=OrdersTotal();
      //----
      for (it=0; it<total; it++)
          {
             if (OrderSelect(it, SELECT_BY_POS, MODE_TRADES) == True)
                {
                   if (OrderSymbol() == symbol)
                      {
                         if (OrderType() == OP_BUY)
                            {
                               OptSL();
                               CalcProvit();
                               if (!opttp) {tpA=OrderOpenPrice()+tp;}
                               else {tpA = 0;}
                               if (!autsl) {slA = OrderOpenPrice()-sl;}
                               else {slA = iLow(symbol,1440,0)-sl;}
                               if ((!autsl && !opttp) && (OrderStopLoss()==0 && OrderTakeProfit()==0))  
                                  {mrest=OrderModify(OrderTicket(),OrderOpenPrice(),slA,tpA,0);}
                               else if ((!autsl && opttp) && (OrderStopLoss()==0))
                                  {mrest=OrderModify(OrderTicket(),OrderOpenPrice(),slA,OrderTakeProfit(),0);}
                               else if ((!opttp && autsl) && (OrderTakeProfit()==0))
                                  {mrest=OrderModify(OrderTicket(),OrderOpenPrice(),OrderStopLoss(),tpA,0);}
                               else {break; return(0);}
                               if(mrest!=true) {merr=GetLastError();}
                               if (merr>0)
                                  {
                                    ResetLastError();
                                    Sleep(2000);
                                    RefreshRates();
                                    mrest=OrderModify(OrderTicket(),OrderOpenPrice(),slA,tpA,0);
                                    merr=GetLastError();
                                    if (merr>0) 
                                     {
                                       Print("Failed to Modify BUY ORDER ",symbol,"! Error code = ",
                                       GetLastError(), ", ",ErrorDescription(merr));
                                       ResetLastError();
                                       return(0);
                                     }

Hello lord_hiro,

Since MT4 Build 625, ordermodify is no need anymore to MT4ECN.
In other words, order proccess to MT4ECN is the same as MT4 Standard (4 digits).

Now I'm still making an updates to EA SmartAssTrade, so you do not need to hard thinking about how to make modifications to the EA.

Actually, EA on free download Code Base, just as a sample ideas for traders or programmers to create or develop their own EA.
Therefore, with my code on EA SmartAssTrade maybe you can make or create a better EA.

Thanks and regards.

Dear Friend Roy, I am beginner and his work is far beyond what I can understand, at the time. Congratulations. I put the "EA" in a bullish move it to "buy", but he made no purchase. All settings were default. See here: 

USDCAD 15

Can you help me understand. 

Thank you very much :) 

Peace be with you.

The EA code is not relevant since MT4 Build 625.
Now I am still trying to update the code and will soon share in the Code Base with the name SmartAssTrade-V2.

I feel you're already a winner. 

I'll wait for the version of SmartAssTrade-V2.

Hi willgart,

It's up to you, if you like to make modification or optimization and improve that EA for your purpose only.
But, Are you don't know that magicnumber, deviation, color,
or something like it, will not be accepted by MT4 ECN server?

If you don't know that in MT4 ECN, OrderSend function () should not be put TP and SL,
MagicNumber, Deviation and Color? But TP and SL should be done through OrderModify function ()?

Hence, why on the EA SmartAssTrade I make lot of command OrderModify ().

If you try the script that you modified on MT4 ECN, I am sure that EA will not make a trade at all.

For your information, when I trading on my broker server (2 and 4 digits or 3 and 5 digits after the decimal points) is not an error at all as you say.

In deinit function (), I made ​​an command for modification of the order,
because if it is not modified, when the computer is turned off
(on the set TP=true or SL=true), then the orders are still open
(floating loss) that currently do not have TP or SL.

Hope you can understand.

Regards.

 

1. Magic Number has nothing about ECN

2. ECN is not determined by Digits

3. Only one value can be returned for a  function.

Dear fxmeter,

You are correct, and the code of this EA is already irrelevant since MT4 Build 625.

Therefore, I am now still doing updates for this EA code.
