I suggest to discuss the following topic:
how relevant is trading on multiple Symbols and/or Timeframes within one Expert Advisor?

I am currently sitting and thinking - should I post symbol_lib and Expert Advisor template, designed for this very purpose =)
and I think there is no such need... If I trade on different accounts - I will still have to run several terminals, and if I trade on one - I will just open several windows. And there would be less confusion, it seems...

It will be interesting to hear opinions and arguments to them ;)
 
Regarding the trailing stop, maybe do this
int CurPrice_p=Bid/Point; //текущая цена в пунктах
int CurSLoss=OrderStopLoss( )/Point; //текущий стоплосс в пунктах
int TS=40; //значение трейлингстопа в пунктах
if(TS>=5)
{
    int TStep=2; //минимальный шаг трейлинг стопа
    if(TStep<1) TStep=1; //проверка шага трейлинга
    {
        if(MathAbs(CurPrice_p-CurSLOss)>=TS+TStep)
        {
            if(CurPrice_p>CurSLOss)
            {
                double NewSLoss=(CurPrice_p-TS)*Point;
                изменить уровень стоплосс ордера на новый
            }
            if(CurPrice_p>CurSLOss)
            {
                NewSLoss=(CurPrice_p+TS)*Point;
                изменить уровень стоплосс ордера на новый
            }
        }
    }
}
 
Regarding trailing stop, maybe we should do the following

this is an idea ... it is more than a thought - it is an idea ))
The next day I will go over the errors that have been collected by the Expert Advisor and think about implementing trading functions. I will share with you next week ;)


I propose to discuss the following topic:
How relevant is it to trade on multiple Seals and/or Timeframes within the same Expert Advisor?


As a result of voting ( 1 against (komposter), 0 in favor, the rest abstained ) I have decided not to post multisymbol trading trash in this thread =)
If anybody is still interested, write and share the library ;-|
 
The topic has been moved to http://forum.viac.ru/viewtopic.php?t=2973
 
Here is a small, and in my opinion useful, utility for visual analysis of positions after a backtest run. Maybe this idea will be further developed for on-line analysis of trading history and parsing of other people's statements.
To use:
1. Write this file with the extension mqh, Tracert.mqh in the folder experts\include\
2. Add the line #include <Tracert.mqh>
#property copyright "Rosh, conversed only" #property link
"http://*****************"
#include <stdlib.mqh> #include <Tracert.mqh> extern double TakeProfit = 200; extern double Lots = 0.1; extern double TrailingStop = 0; extern double StopLoss = 65;



3. Insert SetTrace() at the very beginning in the start() block ;

int start() { int ticket, total,totalExpert; //------------------------------------------------------ //to simplify and accelerate the code, let's save the necessary // indicator data in temporary variables SetTrace();



4. After the EA run, open the file and get something like this:



The utility code itself:

Due to the release of the tester (a little late though), I'm posting trade_lib_tester and info_lib_tester. Because their usual versions don't want to be tested =)))
Use the same. Just change the old names in the lines of inludes to the new ones.

Dear komposter!

Could you post all these files, both latest and earlier, somewhere on viac or alpari or forexitems or finlists - in general, where you can attach files. It would also be easier to find. Thanks in advance.
 
Dear komposter! <br / translate="no">.
Could you please put all these files and recent and earlier ones somewhere on viac or alpari or forexitems or finlist - in general, where you can attach files. It would also be easier to find. Thanks in advance.

testing speed increased more than 10 times
 
Finalised the libraries - http://forum.viac.ru/viewtopic.php?p=65111#65111

There are a lot of changes. And a huge one at that.
Error tolerance is at a whole new level, information is more complete, interface is more friendly ;) ...

In general, we can say, that it is absolutely new library =)
Feel free to use it ;)
