What am I doing wrong? On m5 it switches fine, but not further

extern string helper111="Настройки Helper";//Helper
extern bool helperTRUE=TRUE;        //Вкл/Выкл Helper

I have not found any trading tools like the dollar index, etc. (indicators?)

they are not allowed to trade on them, how will your code behave?

Fake OrderSend from an EA does not always allow you to determine its settings.

The code I provided shows the settings of any EA, regardless of symbol properties and others. For example, run an EA of some kind and then this script on the same chart

// Скрипт показывает, в каком режиме Long/Short запущен советник на данном чарте.
void OnStart()
{
  Alert(LongShortToString());
}

checked, it works, but

1. in the discussion https://www.mql5.com/ru/forum/214590/page6#comment_11947599

the code should be replaced with return(INIT_SUCCEEDED); - I tried it and did not understand where the EA was missing ))

2. I do not understand why, when I select EA properties and put a different checkbox, the alert does not reappear, when I switch TFs, everything is normal

is it possible to add your code to the EA?

int testTicket=OrderSend(Symbol(),OP_SELL,0.01,0,3,0,0,"Sell Try",1,0,CLR_NONE);
if (GetLastError() == 4111) testLONG_SHORT="Long Only Mode"; 
testTicket=OrderSend(Symbol(),OP_BUY,0.01,0,3,0,0,"Buy Try",1,0,CLR_NONE); 
if (GetLastError() == 4110) testLONG_SHORT="Short Only Mode";

With this code it endlessly opens long and short orders on xauusd

Yes.

int testTicket=OrderSend(Symbol(),OP_SELL,0.01,0,3,0,0,"Sell Try",1,0,CLR_NONE);
if (GetLastError() == 4111) testLONG_SHORT="Long Only Mode"; 
testTicket=OrderSend(Symbol(),OP_BUY,0.01,0,3,0,0,"Buy Try",1,0,CLR_NONE); 
if (GetLastError() == 4110) testLONG_SHORT="Short Only Mode";

The idea here is that you need exactly zero volumes.

[Lomonosov1991]

fxsaber:

Yes.

It opens 0.01 lots without volume.

int testTicket=OrderSend(Symbol(),OP_SELL,0,0,3,0,0,"Sell Try",1,0,CLR_NONE);
if (GetLastError() == 4111) testLONG_SHORT="Long Only Mode"; 
testTicket=OrderSend(Symbol(),OP_BUY,0,0,3,0,0,"Buy Try",1,0,CLR_NONE); 
if (GetLastError() == 4110) testLONG_SHORT="Short Only Mode";

and that doesn't work at all.

int testTicket=OrderSend(Symbol(),OP_SELL,0,0,0,0,0,"Sell Try",1,0,CLR_NONE);
if (GetLastError() == 4111) testLONG_SHORT="Long Only Mode"; 
testTicket=OrderSend(Symbol(),OP_BUY,0,0,0,0,0,"Buy Try",1,0,CLR_NONE); 
if (GetLastError() == 4110) testLONG_SHORT="Short Only Mode";

I purposely put FAILED in this example, so that I would not need to remove it manually later.

When changing Long/Short there is no OnDeinit/OnInit call.

[Lomonosov1991]

I don't understand how to run it((

[Igor Makanu]

fxsaber:

No OnDeinit/OnInit call when changing Long/Short.

strange behavior, normally OnIniT() is executed after the settings window is called.

attached the sample, unzip it and scatter in folders
