Hey need help with a Simple code for EA

[Chevon Ormsby]

Hey guys i'm new to coding and I was not able to find this anywhere. Anyways I need a code for EA that places a buy when/if price moves 50 pips up and sell when/if price move 50 pips down , also make it changeable in expert properties. Make it work for pairs that have 1 digit dec place , 2 digit , 3 digit 4 digit and 5 digit . Basically make it be able to trade forex commodities stocks and indexes. Also with a trailing stop , that has trail start , step and stop in expert properties. Hard for me but easy for you gurus out there :) I'd appreciate it!!

Ok basically I want the bot to place a buy each time price moves 50 points up and a sell each time price moves 50 points/pips down. For example , price is at 1.10100 if price drop to 1.10150 open sell and if price rise 1.10150 open buy . I trade every instrument forex stocks comm and index. in forex you usually have pairs wth 5-3 digits. in indexes you have pairs with 2 and 1 digits. I want the bot to be able to trade all of these instruments. so make it able to trade pairs with 3 digits such as usd/jpy , us30 which has 1 digit . Make the bot tradeable with 1,2,3,4,and 5 digit(/decimal places) pairs. Lastly , I know how to code the trailing stop to the external properties window bt it is not working . Im guessing there has to be a code as well in the On Tick () section. I want the trailing stop to have trial start step and stop. THnaks

    double level1 = Ask+50*Digits ;
    double level2 = Bid-50*Digits ;

Think about what the result of these will be.

if
    ( level1 )

level1 is not a bool.

If you want to trade non-forex, consider using Points instead of Pips.

In future please post in the correct section

I will move this topic to the MQL4 and Metatrader 4 section.
