Hello, could you tell me how to indicate a real timeframe in a condition? Do you mean a variable or maybe there is a special designation?

Shit... what are you smoking? Where do you get your cigarettes from? Owl went to the shop and bought some... And then some funk came along and ruined everything.

Bummer...

What a double-edged question) Options for interpretation are as follows:

1. Supposed to find out if you smoke at all.

2. What you smoke.

3. Where and on what plantations it grows. So to speak, I want one too. ))))))

I could do some more, but I don't think so. If you're a smoker, you'd better keep a low profile, or you're going to get smoked. They'll find you...

pu6ka Thanks, but none of them say anything about how to deal with code that is in the codebase and does not compile

I found the answers for myself:

put the position data into an array

Why read the data into an array when you can get the same data from the environment? Why a crutch?

Guys, I'm coming back to you for knowledge.

I am trying to solve the following problem - three consecutive bullish bars, MACD bar on the first bar is bigger than on the second, the first bullish bar is bigger than the MA - we open a buy trade.

The trade itself opens, but there is no MACD signal. It doesn't work on the test runs and the MA either. Help!!!!!!

Here is my awkward code, where did I mess up?

void CheckForOpen()
{
   int ticket, STOPLEVEL;
   double Price, SL, TP; 
   STOPLEVEL=MarketInfo(Symbol(),MODE_STOPLEVEL);
   
    
   double MA_1 = iMA(Symbol(),0,MA_Period,MA_Shift,MA_Method,PRICE_CLOSE,1);
   double MaCD_1 = iMACD(Symbol(),0,FastEMA,SlowEMA,SignalSMA,0,MODE_MAIN,1); 
   double MaCD_2 = iMACD(Symbol(),0,FastEMA,SlowEMA,SignalSMA,0,MODE_MAIN,2); 

   if(Volume[0]>1) return;
   
//---- buy conditions
   if (Open[3]<Close[3] && Open[2]<Close[2] && Open[1]<Close[1])
   if (Low[1]>MA_1)
   if (MaCD_1>0 && MaCD_2>0 && MaCD_1>MaCD_2)// покупка
   
     
   {
     Price = NormalizeDouble(Ask, Digits); // округляем до нужного нам числа цифр после запятой
     if(StopLoss >= STOPLEVEL)
      {
       SL = iLow(Symbol(),0,3); // вычисляем стоплос
       SL = NormalizeDouble(SL, Digits); // округляем до нужного нам числа цифр после запятой
      }
       else SL = 0;
     if(TakeProfit > 0)
      {
       TP = Price + TakeProfit*Point; // вычисляем тейкпрофит
       TP = NormalizeDouble(TP, Digits); // округляем до нужного нам числа цифр после запятой
      }
       else TP = 0;
      {
      ticket=OrderSend(Symbol(),OP_BUY,Lots,Ask,Slippage,SL,TP,"Pattern_1",Magic,0,Blue);
      return;
      } 
   }
 }

Nowhere in this function; most likely a fault in the conditions of the checkforopen function call.

Normal MACD Sample entry conditions in MT4 itself. Why should you make up your own stuff? Take it, use it, add what is missing! But don't make up something that has been tested hundreds of times and works well in any market!
