I want to code an ea to activiate during 3 different time periods. How would I set this up?? I am not sure how to code a nested if conditional statement in MQ4. Where is all the examples to follow to code this language?? The rough times would be

After 3 years of trying to test EA's, both MT3 & MT4 types, I have been hoping that someone would of created a highly reliable Backtester that would backtest at least 3 years with 95+ accuracy. Why has nobody created one that they could market??? I

Logic Statement Check: ma3_0 = iMAEx(27,MODE_LWMA,0,PRICE_LOW,0); If Close[1] < ma3_0 then . . . Question: is Close[1] proper in this statement

val1=0; val2=0; if open[Shift+1]close[Shift] then if close[shift+1]> iBANDS(IBAND,2,MODE_HIGH,Shift+1) then // val1=High[shift]; Begin ShortFlag=1; LongFlag=0; val1=High[shift]; end; MQL Questions: 1) What does Shift mean? Does it mean the current

This coding was to eliminate only pending buy and sell stop orders . It unfortunately is deleting both the pending buy and sell stop orders, but also the orders that are active and in play. How can I change this to only eliminate the pending and not

This 'Major Flaw' was documented this morning. The flaw created a 18 fold overstatement of the real trade. The real trade captured 33 pips, the backtester overstated it to 620+ pips. Is this cause for serious concern? I should think so. I have sent

Please see next question

Could one of you fine MQLII programmers tell me what statement can be used to to sound an audible alarm on a custom indicator ? It must be compatible with a MQLII Custom Indicator. Your help would be very helpful. Dave77

My expert advisor 'may be' working! The Meta backtester is messed up every which way you try to use it as I just learned. I thought that if a program did not use buy and sell stops it might work right - WRONG! My present program only uses

I am trying to modify an existing MQL program to include a buy and sell conditon based upon the RSI levels > 25 and < 75. When I try to set it up under the Calculate indicators ' value in the program the rsi indicator setup asks for 2 time

I picked this program up from a forum. It came in MQL and .exp. I wanted to adjust the MQL file to new parameters and after I did I found I had an error. The error reads: 22;16;1;50;some operator expected - token "1". If the first numbers are line

Scorpion, I heard you have some sort of tick by tick backtester . I would like to backtest my MQL expert advisor on it. Interbankfx trade platform has one, but it does not even come close to what the program does in realtime trading - Very

I used the ZeroCode to create this simple expert advisor - It compiles nice, but does not buy or sell?? Totally confused! //*---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------*\ // This MQL is

How would you program this in your Zero Code to include a condition where there was a crossover in the past, the move continued and is now retreating and the trailing stop will close the position? I know there is a close feature but I am not sure how

If anybody has the MQL of this 'standard' ATR indicator, could you please send it to me: ddiebold@sbcglobal.net. Your assistance is appreciated! Dave 77

If I want an indicator MA crossover where the sell signal is generated 5 pips after the crossover takes place, how do I state this in the logic statement that your program will accept. If MA(1) previous crosses MA(2) current - 5 pips then sell. Can

Along with a moving average crossover, I would like to create one additional condition in my program to check to see if the current price is (below) any valley peak (low) that may be occured in the previous 10 bars before the current bar. Can you

The first step I have taken is mirror your creation of the MACD crossover as your video shows. Once compiled, I tried to create an expert advisor with my brokerage firm. First I opened the test file of the MACD crossover into their Metaquotes

I ran a backtest on my expert advisor on a 1 hr EURUSD graph. I have pictures of the results and the MQL coding to send to you to show you that it is buying and selling when the MA crossovers (are not) taking place. Could I have your email address to
