Please use SRC button when you post code.

Try this :

   double L = 5.0 / 3.0;

Hi Suntzu10,

I am new to MT5 and MT5's coding too. 

I hope i can ask  questions about coding  here (going forward) when I get stuck again... if this is not the best place or not appropriate please direct me to a proper place. 

Cheers :)
