The slippage parameter in the EA. - page 2

Renat Akhtyamov:

I had a conversation with the doc the other day.

They say if a client wants zero slippage, they'll do it.

I'm sure they will...

The question is different. First, the slippage parameter is necessary, because the order will not open without it. Then the same person said, "Slippage is not necessary because none of the brokers take it into account and it makes no sense to add this parameter to the Expert Advisor".

I don't know about that...

A requote will come with 0 slippage with a new price offer, especially on cable and with a high ping. In a fast market with >120 ticks per minute you might catch requotes for a long time before you can open your order.
 
In an uptrend, the sells do not requote - the bai requotes. In a downtrend, the sells requote - the bai does not requote. That's not what I mean. I manually open an order. A requote eats three or four points. I do not have slippage parameter. But the order opens. I do not ask a question at what price the order was opened. I am interested in the question: "Can an order without the parameter "slippage" be opened?

What are you all talking about? I told you at the beginning - with Market Execution the slippage parameter is not needed and is not taken into account by DC. With Instant Execution - it is needed and taken into account.

If the execution type isMarket Execution, it will open in any case, no matter if the slippage is 0 or 100500

 

My point is that if the EA DOESN'T have this parameter. I mean, if we don't have it in our EA at all.

1) The order will be opened (but under certain conditions).

2) The order will not open (it does not open without any additional conditions).

Execution type . I am not familiar with this word. I will google translation into human language .

 
Try putting INT_MAX value in the slippage parameter. Ideally, it will open an order under any conditions in any market.
 
I watched a video there and was told that if the execution type is Market Execution, the order will be opened in any case. Is this action needed to be found somewhere in some settings?

The advisor will NOT have this parameter

 
Zvezdochet:
Do you have to look for this action somewhere in the settings?
