Can someone help me? Here's the indicator: //+------------------------------------------------------------------+

Hello, I am doing backtestingand I would like to know the maximum drawdown in pips for each of my trades. I was at first looking at the MAE, but it's not what I want because it's in USD (or currency of the account) and so, it depends on the lot size. (even when you set the backtest in pips) I would

Good morning, I am building a function to know if the last closed deal by an expert advisor was profitable. So I am iterating deals until finding one that matches the magic number, type and deal comment desired. However, I am having trouble using the HistorySelect() function, as I don't want to use...

Sorry if this has been asked before but I'm finding it a bit difficult to search for. I have an expert that writes out a lot of information to CSV files. The problem is, if I forget to turn this off before I start optimization, it will write these CSV files for every thread that it uses. These then

I have just switched to an MT5 hedging account and it seems that the Strategy Tester either does not work correctly with it or I am doing something stupid.... A very simple EA that literally places a single pending order with a SL & TP it does nothing else at all, no other code, no indicators etc

I was curious to know whether there is any service which allows you to pay for servers with MT4 or MT5 on an hourly basis in order for running backtests? Ideally, these servers need to have 8 cores or more, to run an optimised backtest which can take days depending on the number of parameters and

Hello I am developing an EA to trade in the market. I am trying to figure out if there is a way to code into the EA so that when it is running, and suddenly the VPS failed and the EA was disconnected. Would I be able to run it again so that it would continue its task before restarting?? I hope I

Good Afternoon, Anyone knows why I cannot use the structure below @OnInit() since it works perfectly on OnTick() ? The idea is to check handle management BEFORE receiving the 1st tick and realise it will not work due to lack of history. if ( CopyBuffer (i_handle, 0 , 0 , 6 ,i_buffer)!= 6 ) {

Hi, I've written a piece of code that creates a linear regression object on the chart based recent swings. I then need to use the values from the upper and lower channel in my trade criteria. When I run it in visual backtest mode, everything works fine. When I turn off the visual mode, it stops

Hi there. My EA (a kind of grid) is start to trade with 0.01 lot but Market requires that it must open trades on every symbol and every broker. 1. If I don't trade, if the minimum lot of the symbol is higher than my trade than I get "No trade operations" error in validation. 2. If I try to trade

Hi guys, Would someone be kind enough and tell me how long I should be prepared to wait for an EA that I have already paid for in full via MQL5 community?
