MT4 to MT5

 

hello, while reading around I have come across an very interesting idea of an EA (sadly an MT4 one). it basically open an buy stop and a sell stop pending orders at a distance from current price, when one order is triggered the other one is canceled and two new pending orders are created at same distance from new current price.

The Expert Advisor is intended for automatic placing of Buy Stop pending orders and Sell Stop pending orders simultaneously, Stop Losses and Take Profits on the user specified levels.

Help you with what? You haven't stated a problem, you stated a want. You have only four choices:
  1. Search for it,
  2. Beg at
  3. learn to code it. If you don't learn MQL4/5, there is no common language for us to communicate. If we tell you what you need, you can't code it. If we give you the code, you don't know how to integrate it into yours.
  4. or pay (Freelance) someone to code it.
We're not going to code it for you (although it could happen if you are lucky or the problem is interesting.) We are willing to help you when you post your attempt (using CODE button) and state the nature of your problem.
