Hi, I'm trying to program an EA. I want to scale out a part of the trade. Not closing it but changing the stop loss to a very close level (n pips). So, if the market comes back those n pips, it will close partially the trade. If not it will allow continue running. It should ask the user how many...
Does anybody know if it's possible to change the horizontal scale time zone on MT4? Also, out of interest, who's timezone is it currently set at? Thanks

I'm running an Optimization for an EA I built and even though I have "Skip useless results" UNCHECKED the strategy runner is not running every possible scenario (or it is and is just not showing me). The strategy runner should be running 900 different combinations but it's only doing 100 passes....
I'm really scratching my head trying to fix this. I can't scroll back beyond 1st Apr 09 for the GBPJPY pair only on all time frames. Unclicking the autoscroll and chartshift button doesn't seem to work. I only have this problem with the GBPJPY, the other pairs are fine. I have tried reopening a new...
I'm sure this is probably simple, but how to I adjust my SL and TP from 4th decimal place to 5th? TakeProfitB = (Bid+10*Point); TakeProfitS = (Ask-10*Point);
The ATR doesn't seem to display any text on the JPY pairs. Any ideas why not? double distanceAway = MathAbs(currPANearest-Bid); double ATR = iATR(NULL,PERIOD_H1,14,0); Comment("currPANearest="+DoubleToStr(currPANearest,2)+ "\nDistance away="+DoubleToStr(distanceAway*10000,0)+...

From what I understand, the maximum data one can backtest in Strategy Tester is dependent upon how much historical data your broker provides you. I've used the standard method of opening up a 1 miute chart, zooming out, turn-off the autoscroll, and hitting the 'home' button until no more data shows...
