Hey all, I have been searching for a long time for an EA that moves SL to break even at a set target price while also closing 1/2 of my position at that price (so it does 2 things at once).  Does anyone know of an EA? And it must work for MT5 because that's the software I use.  Thanks in advance

Hi all Is there a way for the active EAs to communicate with eachother or for some hierarchy in the order they run . For example 5 EAs running on the same MT4, where in order for eachone to run,it has to wait for the previous one to complete itsoperations. What I think is to have the EAs create a...

Hello everyone, I ve been using WebRequest code provided by mt4 support and it was running perfectly, until today...

"You can use the explicit casting to convert the base class pointers to the pointers of a derived class. But you must be fully confident in the admissibility of such a transformation, because otherwise a critical runtime error will occur and the mql5 program will be stopped." Is there any way to...

This is a repost, as I did first post it in the indicators section. The EA uses the PipsChartData library, which code-wise belongs to the indicator.

I'm trying to submit an EA that only operates on the M1 period, but the automatic validation always fails because it is testing on M30, H1, and Daily periods.  I even have ChartSetSymbolPeriod(0, NULL, PERIOD_M1) set to force it to run on M1 and redundant code to return in OnTick if the period is...

On the specification window, the filling type of a pair is designated as "all" with my broker. But, on the "new order" window, there are only two options: FOK and IOC. Can I use "return" in this case? Additionally, if available, with which function I can see the used filling type for an opened...
