Short/LongCondition StandardLibrary

[aaliyan]

Hi everyone,

I have a small problem if anyone can help me, i build an EA with MQL5Wizard and i would like display the sum of pattern result of my signal.(Short and LongCondition result exactly)

In my Ontick function, i test this, but i have an error (folder0 is unknow):

void OnTick()
  {

   ExtExpert.OnTick();

   Print(filter0.LongCondition);

  }

And if i declare my signal objet in OnTick (CSignalSAR *filter0=new CSignalSAR;) filter0.LongCondition return always 0...

Have you an idea.

Thanks in advance.

(I'm a french MQL5 beginner developper, so forgive me for my English very light)

Hi Aaliyan,

 

You are not using the inbuilt modules correctly. To start off I would suggest reading both these articles, and studying the code provided within:

 

https://www.mql5.com/en/articles/226

https://www.mql5.com/en/articles/367

 

They will give you an understanding of how to create an EA with the wizard, and use the LongCondition/ShortCondition methods.

I know it's an old topic, but it's not really answered...

To print the value of ShortCondition/LongCondition for a signal module, you simply have to declare your filter0 (or filter1, filter2...) as global variable. I take the example of an EA build with the Wizard and based on SignalMA. Inside OnInit() function you have:

int OnInit()
  {
   ...
//--- Creating filter CSignalMA
   CSignalMA *filter0=new CSignalMA;
   ...
  }

You have to change this a little :

CSignalMA *filter0;

int OnInit()
  {
   ...
//--- Creating filter CSignalMA
   filter0=new CSignalMA;
   ...
  }

Then you can print the needed values in OnTick() :

void OnTick()
  {
   ExtExpert.OnTick();
   Print("filter 0 : Long= ",filter0.LongCondition(), " Short= ", filter0.ShortCondition());
  }

That give you :

2013.10.02 11:02:58    testMA (EURUSD,M5)    filter 0 : Long= 80 Short= 0

Interesting, and good information to boot.

Thank you for this discussion.
