Explain why the example about stop levels says this:

SL_check=(Bid-SL>stops_level*_Point);

and not like this:

SL_check=(Bid-SL>=stops_level*_Point);

The help says that stop levels are the minimum distance from price, not distance + 1 pip?

The minimum distance from the price at which a stop cannot be placed.

If >=, then we hit the last point of this distance.

also, without additional squatting, doubles are not compared for equality :-) i.e. >= is used only if you are sure that equality can be and makes sense.

Bid-SL can be for example 0.001000012 or 0.0009999971 which in both cases is 0.001.

Hi, help me understand, when loading the robot passes the test on EURUSD but fails the test on gold, while EURUSD is tested with 10k, on gold for some reason with 1k and most importantly, the robot is not designed to work on gold, but I can not bypass this test or find in the settings where to specify only forex, I'm not saying that the robot is designed for H4, and the test is conducted on H1 but with this is still half the trouble, just the results are worse

.

I made a separate strategy for those instruments for which the Expert Advisor is not designed. Or you can set a minimum lot for such instruments, regardless of external settings.

I tried it, I put a check on XAUUSD and if it is XAUUSD then do not open trades, but the check failed, it writes that there are no trades :)

I did not suggest not to trade at all, I suggested using a different approach to trading.

In the description, of course, you should inform the user about this nuance.
