Unexpected and Unbalanced Parentheses

OTMT Howard 2022.05.24 13:34

Hello MQL5 Community,

I'd appreciate it if you could help me with the following errors in my code.

The first is at the beginning of my "int OnInit()" code, and the second is at the end: "return(point);"

I had previously made some minor changes to the code in order to resolve other errors. I'm having trouble figuring out the two remaining.

I may be missing a "Parentheses" somewhere and am having difficulty locating it.

Your assistance is greatly appreciated.

You should practice to identify these kind of errors yourself. The second message gives you the clue by identifying the OnInit function. Then use the built-in highlighting of brackets and braces to identify the corresponding one.

int OnInit()
  {
//---
// Detect 3/5 digit brokers for Point and Slippage

   if(Point == 0.00001)
     { vPoint = 0.0001; vSlippage = Slippage *10;}
   else
     {
      if(Point == 0.001)
        { vPoint = 0.01; vSlippage = Slippage *10;}
      else
         vPoint = Point;
      vSlippage = Slippage;

      if(TrailingStop && TrailingStart <= 0)
        {
         Alert("Parameters incorrect");
         return (INIT_PARAMETERS_INCORRECT);
        }
      myPoint     = GetPipPoint(Symbol());
     }
  } // <--- missing

void OrdersAccounting ()

Hei fernando,

Thank you for the assist. I have enabled these items.

After inserting the missing parentheses. I got a list of 8 more errors of which I am really lost in resolving at this point.
