Added topic Why does this "if" staement not do what it is supposed to do?
Here is a simple question for you gurus. I have a simple "if" statement that lets through everything it seems, in stead of skipping the code after the "if" statement" when the condition is not true. The result is that I get a

Added topic Account History in MT4
Is there any way I can copy the account history in MT4 to Excel or a file system? At the moment all I see is a "Save Report" function that produces an HTML file that I cannot manipulate. I need to do some analysis on the account history

Added topic This is totally flabbergasting!
I have written an EA and get the most mystifying results from a piece of code that i have written. It works well with Buy orders but refuses to work with Sell orders. I have gone through the system code a hundred times. Even rewritten it - but the
