EA to open an opposite trade

New comment
 

I would be most grateful if you are spare sometime to develop for me an EA that that will monitor a trade (by ticket number or comment, i.e. anything to identify just that trade) and open an opposite trade of the same lot size (TP and SL not required, i.e no take profit or stop loss) when the monitored trade has reached a predefined number of pips in loss, and remove the TP (target profit) of the original trade. Example:

I BUY 0.1 lot of pair XX with TP. Pair XX now 100 pips in loss, EA opens a SELL order of 0.1 of pair XX with no TP or SL and the original TP of the BUY order removed (changed to 0). Many thanks

 
There is a freelance section for such jobs. Why you think someone will make it for free?
 
KayMetaT: if you are spare sometime to develop for me
There are no slaves here. You have only four choices:
  1. Search for it.
  2. Beg at
  3. MT4: Learn to code it.
    MT5: Begin learning 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.

Wow! For a minute there, thought this was a community where people help each other. Must be mistaken! Thanks!

Help means that you try for something and while you are almost done, you need someone to fill in some gaps.

Where is your effort?

You only stated a want as William remarked and you wait for someone to built it for you, just like that!

Yes, this is a community of people who try with their knowledge and get a lot of help in some small issue that they're stuck.

This is a community where programmers meet programmers, non-programmers meet freelancers and their fellow non-programmers. You post a question like a programmer yet you know no code! Just the right person for the freelance. ;)

Come on! Show me the code up to where you are stuck and I'll help for free.

Help yes; slaves coding for free, no! You were mistaken. Get off your lazy butt, and either learn to code or pay someone.

This forum is not only for professional traders and programmers

First of all, this is for all enthusiasts

Many people trade and program as a hobby

One of them, as an unprofessional programmer, will improve his programming skills, and the other will spend his energy and efforts on testing and live trading

Negative attacks on such communication attempts spoil this Forum

What is your point?

KayMetaT was very clear, he wanted someone to built his EA for free.

No effort or sample code was produced in order to seek help.

I don't see any questions about development that need discussion in his post:

If you are a coder, why don't you 'spare some of your time to develop his EA' ?

 

He is not required to make programming efforts

He will help the programmer who is busy with the same problem to check his code

This forum is not only for programmers
