Hello, I have some EA's that work fine at other brokers but not at Oanda. Oanda uses bridging software to communicate with MT4. If I get stopped out the EA is supposed to place a new order. What happens, is that after being stopped out on Oanda's platform, the EA loses track of my position and...

Hi, I am using a money manager EA that automatically adds the stop loss and take profit lines onto my chart once I place an order. I should be able to drag the lines on the chart if I want to change the stop loss or take profit. However, a few seconds after I drag the lines to a new price, they move...

Hello forum, I put this indicator together to allow me to mark some local times on my charts that I have interest in. Seems to work fine except for the labelling.

Hi What function is used to move the custom indicator further away from the candle on the charts. For example: SetIndexArrow(0, 241); SetIndexStyle(0,DRAW_ARROW,STYLE_DOT,1,Blue); SetIndexBuffer(0, v1); SetIndexLabel(0,"Resistance"); This produces and up arrow for a fractal, but the...

Hi, I am surprised that I do not come to a simple algorithm to obtain the net price of a hedge position. e.g. 2 diffrent EAs, one for long-trades and one for short-trades: [EURUSD] Open positions: Buy 3.0 lots@1.3515 1.0 lot@1.3525 Sell -6.5 lots@1.3540 -1.0 lot@1...
