Access ATR Value

OMID 2021.03.04 12:06

HI.

I want to build an expert advisor that will automatically set my SL to 2xATR of the position I'm in

Tried a few things but they didn't work

Any kind of help is much appreciated

Hi, you can move SL by ATR with this code:

double atr = iATR(NULL,0,14,0);

double SL = SL - (2*atr);

I am not sure what you are trying to do there. You have not assigned an initial value to SL and then you are subtracting 2*atr. ?????
