ChatGPT is nonsense. Stop using ChatGPT.
          Help needed to debug and fix an AI EA - Trading Systems - MQL5 programming forum (2023)

ChatGPT (the worst), “Bots Builder”, “EA builder”, “EA Builder Pro”, EATree, “Etasoft forex generator”, “Forex Strategy Builder”, ForexEAdvisor (aka. ForexEAdvisor STRATEGY BUILDER, and Online Forex Expert Advisor Generator), ForexRobotAcademy.com, forexsb, “FX EA Builder”, fxDreema, Forex Generator, FxPro, Molanis, Octa-FX Meta Editor, Strategy Builder FX, Strategy Quant, “Visual Trader Studio”, “MQL5 Wizard”, etc., are all the same. You will get something quick, but then you will spend a much longer time trying to get it right, than if you learned the language up front, and then just wrote it.

Since you haven't learned MQL4/5, therefor there is no common language for us to communicate. If we tell you what you need, you can't code it. If we give you the code, you don't know how to integrate it into yours.

We are willing to HELP you when you post your attempt (using Code button) and state the nature of your problem, but we are not going to debug your hundreds of lines of code. You are essentially going to be on your own.

You can always read the 6196 pages of the MQL5 Reference Manual. It would be a good start.

Python, MQL5, MQL4? Seems like coding fruit salad to me.

Could you help to ad some few features to this EA. I have outlined everything in detail. Please reply immediately.


Use The EA add the following features. 1. Buy Only: A. When The Indicator Sends a Buy Alert/Signal A Buy order should be Triggered immediately. i. Input For 'X' number of positions, so that the trader can select His/Her desired Number of Positions. Maximum of 'X'. ii. Input for desired lot size. iii. Input for TP & SL in $ Dollar value not Pips. Each TP & SL should be for each Position separately. iv. TP for every Hour. That is, as soon as The Hourly TP is hit The EA should stop and Close all open positions, then start in the next hour. V. Above Conditions should be done for Each Signal. Create Input for Signal 1, 2, 3 and 4. Within the hour. That is Signal 1 is treated separately from 2, 3 and 4. Multiple signals is envisaged within the Hour, so that is why this has to be done. The EA should be able to work on Multiple Charts simultaneously, without interfering. 2. Sell Only: When The Indicator Sends a Sell Alert/Signal A Sell order should be Triggered immediately. The same Conditions applies to as Above for Buy only. *Tip* You can just put a Switch to select for either Buy or Sell, however there is an existing feature on the EA Ex5 file please. NOT ex4.

*All other feature on the EA Should remain.
