How to resume trading in x minutes after loss
28846173:
so this will close all orders as soon as any there is any profit its just an example in mt4 but what i want is time resume ,,like after this closes all orders i want to resume in lets say 5 minutes how do we do that?
Hi , this is not tested
So what is happening is :
- declare a variable that retains the last time your system fully stopped
- when your system fully stops you capture the time
- if there is a time captured and the limit input is not zero (system active by user) then you run a check
- which compares the difference in seconds of the current time from the last stop time
a more complete solution would retain all that info even after reinits and terminal shutdowns , check for trading etc check if all trades closed etc
input int continueSecs=3600;//continue after stop in seconds datetime stopped=0; int start(){ if(AccountEquity()>AccountBalance()){ CloseOrders(); //should check if they really closed , but not of topic stopped=TimeLocal(); } //if you have a recent stopped time if(stopped!=0&&continueSecs>0){ //difference in seconds int secs_diff=((int)TimeLocal())-((int)stopped); //if the difference crosses over your limit reopen if(secs_diff>=continueSecs){ //open your trades here and reset stopped time stopped=0; } } }

thank you bro
| Code | input int continueSecs=3600;//continue after stop in seconds datetime stopped=0; int start(){ if(AccountEquity()>AccountBalance()){ CloseOrders(); //should check if they really closed , but not of topic stopped=TimeLocal(); } //if you have a recent stopped time if(stopped!=0&&continueSecs>0){ //difference in seconds int secs_diff=((int)TimeLocal())-((int)stopped); //if the difference crosses over your limit reopen if(secs_diff>=continueSecs){ //open your trades here and reset stopped time stopped=0; } |
| Simplified | input int continueSecs=3600;//continue after stop in seconds datetime stopped=0; int start(){ if(AccountEquity()>AccountBalance()){ CloseOrders(); stopped = TimeLocal() + continueSeconds; } //if the "continue after" has expired. if(stopped < TimeLocal()){ //open your trades here and reset stopped time } } |
