Stoploss and TakeProfit in Mql4 (Part 2) - MQL4 and MetaTrader 4

STARIJ:

Artem, either it's unobtrusive trolling or you don't know what you're writing about!!!

In your last post you talked about sorting. Explained to you that there is no dependence on sorting.

I've seen and PARTICIPATED in one of the discussions about order selection by time. The conclusion was that orders are now placed in the order database according to the time they were sent to the server. But THEORETALLY there is a fear that the developers may change this. That was the end of that discussion. As a database specialist I assure you that this fear is unfounded, a change is out of the question. You can refer the issue to the developers. If I write something, I know what I write. It's the 50th anniversary of programming. If you notice in my posts some mess from your point of view - write to me in person. I will explain, and your doubts will dispel. But here bicker unlikely to be appropriate. I wrote the man a script - he said thank you. Isn't it good?

That's what all those people who suddenly found themselves dependent on sorting, thought the same. People's logic collapsed. Then the dependence on sorting disappeared again. But it already has. If you want to depend not on your program, but on a hypothetical invariant sorting, you have the right, but in beginner's help thread you have no such right - to give a script and not to mention the fact that it may fail one day. Look for such discussions on mql4.com - about 6 - 7 years ago.

That's what I mentioned - the person was talking about stoploss, not loss.

Thanks he said - polite, but he doesn't know if it's right or wrong ;)

Look carefully at what the man has written.

X = OrderProfit( );        // запомнить величину тейкпрофита

if (OrderSelect (Ht-1,SELECT_BY_POS, MODE_HISTORY))     // если ПОСЛЕДНИЙ ордер                  
if ( OrderType ()==OP_SELL)  // СЕЛ

if(X < 0)                 // и если этот сел закрылся по стопу

It follows that he was referring to losing orders. That's how he understands stoploss. He does not have the wordstoploss.

I also wanted to write that the stops are a generalized name for StopLoss and TakeProfit. To see this, type 130 in MetaEditor and press F1

Stops. Plural.

I am working here, you are distracting me.

Let's better say datetime --> TimeToStruct -->MqlDateTime How to convert back to datetime now ???

-Aleks-:

Ugh, I can't figure out how to add variables - i.e. let's say I have 4 boolean variables and need to go through them?

I understand the point - the remainder should be less or more than zero after division - but I can't figure out how to do it :(

For boolean ones the approach is slightly different

What I want to use it for - I have a number of filters and position management options in my EA - I want to combine them, including making mini-sets (pre-made combinations) - as a result I will get data for analysis, while not being biased towards the sample, which hopefully will expand the horizons of perception of the settings influence on the result. The result will be a series of results which I will analyze in detail. And, there's another reason, I have a class for collecting statistics that saves a limited number of variables to a file, which prevents detailed analysis.

STARIJ:

If at 4am - not many bars yet for today. On H4 there are only 6 bars in a day. you have to set the number of bars to search for or the number of crossings.

Long distances = trend

I tried to run it as a script, it works, but if I compile it as an EA, all lines are close to each other and I dont understand what is the problem
