MQL4: DIGITS AND POINT * 10

[Mohammed Abdulwadud Soubra]

Hello every one, 

 :)

 

Usually we used to code: 

   double trade_point;

   if (Digits == 3 || Digits == 5) trade_point = Point * 10;

But what if we have another chances such as the gold or silver or..... 

The gold as u know is not 3 and not 5 digits 

 So, what is the replacement of the Point * 10 as the following:

   double trade_point;

   if (Digits == 2 ) trade_point = Point * ?????????????????;

Different people have different definitions of what a pip is with commodities such as Gold. So you should code using Point.

Don't post in all Capitals, that is considered shouting and is extremely rude!
