Hello!

Question on the tester:

When testing EAs, the tester stops processing prices after a s/l breach. What should I do to prevent this? What should I do, if I want the tester to continue testing the EA after breaching the stop?


Maybe you have a script, not an EA))) and what testing period do you set?

If everything is ok, post the EA, someone will tell you what to do.

Mainly 30 minutes.

The most interesting thing is that when I bypass stop-losses by forced closing, the prices are further processed and the curve of the chart continues to be drawn. But if I close the same order at a stop (change the EA code a bit) - the testing stops after a stop breakdown... Maybe you should change some parameters in the tester's settings?

 
gheka:

Folks! is there a function that returns the value of a fixed loss in pips to close an order?

I know there is an OrderStopLoss, but it's a losing price.

I know there is an OrderStopLoss - but it is a value of the price at a loss, but I have not found anything, help me

Search here... :)

Most likely an error in the EA code and it stops opening new positions after closing on a stop

I think I figured out the error: the checkbox does not change value after order closing by stop (i.e. not by EA itself). How do I get around that?

In the EA, check whether the order is closed on a stop. And if so, change the value of your flag.

You can use Igor Kim's ready-made function to determine if the last closed position was closed by a stop.

Or you can do it yourself. In any case, it may be a good example for you to start with:
