And why are you focusing on the trawl? The trawl is a minor piece of the Expert Advisor, nothing more. You'd be better off with an indicator, like a dummy.
Yes! Moreover, the indicator is the most important part, the study. With an indicator, you can also create a trawl.
While TC is on time out...
Parallel to this topic I teach my children programming (they are supposed to be at school, but they are taught "would kill you"). Therefore, there are some conclusions and notes.
1. The visual, tangible, visible and significant result is extremely important. The minimal amount of code you put in, printed out, should produce the maximum effect.
2. We, as self-respecting gurus, are drowning the TC in details. It should have a mess of MQL and API platform.
3. MQL is totally unsuitable for learning from 0 ...:-( having the background, it's pretty simple, but the foundation you need to get
to support TS in learning from zeros,
the first one is to provide the tester with an Expert Advisor with the minimum code, which it will already complete and modify.
In the last (it's the first one about the trailing stop) task - to write an owl and run it in the tester of the TC and see how exactly a stop is trailed.
Hello Maxim!
You have accurately noted the mess in my head. After a short pause I read the topic from the beginning to the end once again. The conclusion is clear! With great desire to help me in self-study, all participants in this thread willingly shared their vision of how to build my self-study program (plan), for which I express a HUGE THANK YOU ALL! The only thing that with this all had to consider (and this is the most important point), that in front of them was a complete zero!
I started to use MQL5 in the beginning of the project, and although I don't have any background knowledge, I still have a great desire to learn MQL5. I`ve got my thoughts in order, now let`s get to work!
Sincerely, Vladimir.

Hello Alexander, thanks for the link!
Regards, Vladimir.
I see the man has been bombarded with advice. I also decided to sign up, maybe I'll get rid of the desire))). Just kidding.
Okay. So: I want a classic trawl.
We divide the task into two parts:
What's going on here?
This is an example of a simple decomposition.
That's it, my wife is here, I'm evaporating))))
Tomorrow we will continue)))
PS If you got bored, don't hesitate to tell me)))
Hello Vladimir, the desire has not been discouraged and it has not become boring! Now I continue self-study according to the adjusted plan! Thanks for constructive advices and tips!
Regards, Vladimir.

Hello! ENUM is worthwhile in terms of self-study.

And why are you stuck with trawl? The trawl is a minor piece of EA, nothing more. It would be better to take apart the indicator, the wrecker.
Hello Andrey! Trailing Stop was supposed to be an extension of the script code, which I have already created and am now using. Following the advice of the respected participants of this thread I decided to create it as an Expert Advisor first, so that I could go back to the script and finish it.
I can shock you, but indicator strategies do not consider ONE! There could be a multipage discussion of this belief, but if it actually takes place between the participants of this topic, it will certainly not involve me.
Respectfully, Vladimir.

"...Note that indicators do not necessarily have to be the basis of strategy...".
I agree. Therefore, in order to enable an EA with a trailing stop to open positions when the strategy tester is started, I will use the simplest condition: at 9:00 a.m. sharp. If the first tick is up, it means BUY, if the tick is down, it means SELL. I don't want to introduce logic into the EA's operation. I just don't want to use the random condition. I am writing the translation especially for those who do not speak English, including myself, for memorizing it.
