Hello,
i am a experienced programmer but I am newish to mql 4 and mql 5 i have been trying to add some code to my EA so it can close orders after three day but this not working.
I have created one of my first EA that is profitable, but there is a big flaw in this EA. it has massive drawdown, which cut massive profit, I found that that the orders that do this can be fixed through two rules, order max open time and higher timeframe filters, both options will be implemented but the closing order older then three days would be the best first fix. other features like trailing take profit and compounding lots size will further increase profits.
It is late and I need some sleep, but i would love it if someone could help me with this i have so amazing backrest with this EA as the rules are simple..
the next set of feature i am trying to add is...
trailing takeprofit in step of 50 points
higher trend filters up, down consolidation so trade, wait
close trades after three days.
this is the function code...
