Trailling pending order EA's comflicting

lehlogonolo28 2016.09.13 18:40

Hi there

I have the 4 ea's that performing the same function, which is trail pending orders(they follow the open price).each one an order at specified distance the type of orders are the buy stop, sell stop, sell limit and buy limit.

Now if i launch one (e.g trail buy limit) EA of them on the chart it function properly, however if i launch another one it could be any (eg traill buy stop or trail buy limit or another trail buy limit) it now starts to malfunction, either the stop orders jump around or stay still.

may you please help me

Kind regards

Hloni

Maybe you combine it all into one and then select in the input parameter box which orders need to be handled that way you wont have 4 separare (conflicting) ea running at the same time.

Help figuring out why Can I test 2 Closing out half lots.

Hi marco

at first i did combine and they conflicted, so i separated them and tried to vary the magic numbers and some parameters.the codes is prdefined similar i reckon there's one small twitch thats causing the conflict, but im having trouble identifying it hence the post.

MT5, calculate open positions What is Wrong with Running more than one
