I appreciate this has been briefly touched upon in the past but I wanted to bring it up again as I am forward testing my EA with a small live account. All the position sizing's with the currency pairs are correct. Because my account is denominated in

I really don't want to be writing another thread about this, but I cannot figure out where I am going wrong? Am I being an idiot!? But as far as I am concerned, this EA should be working on the CORRECT symbol that is associated with the open

Hey All, Starting off very broad here, but is is possible (maybe with the help of a third party app) to pull the closed trades in the history log automatically into an excel spreadsheet ? Cheers, -Dom

Hey, So, if MT4 is restarted, the EA will repeat the most recent available action. In my case, if price is >= exit prices, it will close out the desired lots again, when in fact this has already been done (as I use OrderClose() function ). How can

   int iTBT = iBarShift( NULL , 60 , triggerBarTime, true ), //<< -- Wanting to use this triggerBarTime date and time, to find YESTERDAY's date, and then yesterdays high...    iHH = iHighest( NULL , 60 , MODE_HIGH, iTBT +

Which one is best when calculating the position sizing relative to the risk of over exposure? Been thinking; I have run back-tests on ST and imported the data per pair into excel and then sorted them chronologically. When these back-tests were done

I'm at the stage now where I am in essence dotting the i's and crossing the t's - Been forward testing for over a month now and its performed pretty good, as well as give me opportunities to flatten out a few mishaps. Where I am now is thinking about

So I have found the issue of what is causing zero divide - I have not seen this before until now. I thought I was finished with my code until this popped up! I have 3 variations of my EA. 1 works flawlessly, the other two are similar in this

I know I'm obviously doing this wrong. I can't work out how ObjectSet works with changing the properties of ObjectCreate? bool Short_Line = ObjectCreate ( "First Short Target" , OBJ_HLINE , 0 , 0 , FirstTarget_Sell);

Quick one. Broker ILQ is allowing me to trade with units (right the way down to just 1 unit!) on a very small account of $1k to forward test in a life environment my EA. I would appreciate someone to just simply confirm if I need to make changes to

I've pasted the code below of what I think should do the job, but am not convinced I've written it properly (Just looking for someone to tell me if I am doing this wrong). Basically I am wanting the OP_BUY / OP_SELL to close the order at a

I am using 3x variations of my EA across 15+ pairs. On version_2 of my EA, I am getting an error of 4051 (as I have recently placed all my prints back in - don't know why I greyed them out in the first place :P) I'm guessing it's because of the

I am currently forwarding testing my EA and I've discovered an issue. My coding seems to be having a conflict when it is trying to place multiple orders. Some times it will place two orders on the same market (double the risk) - Most of the time it

Ok - so first off, if anyone is offended by my " incessant questions", then just do not bother writing on here wasting your own time. For the sake of avoiding waffle, this is what I am wanting to understand if it is plausible to do: Imagine

I have nearly finished my EA (with a huge thanks to some really helpful people on here!). None the less, I am sure there will be plenty of more stuff along the way - just evolution, which is expected. Anyway, this is my hurdle: I use this code

This gets called and checked every hour with regards to the bias. For example "H1_Bias" will be checked every hour and can change to "None", Down, or Up based upon MA's. It works in conjunction with "IsNewCandle()"

First off, I know Raptor that you have raised this issue with me before, but I cannot remember where you wrote it, and, more importantly understand where I am going wrong? As far as I am aware I was writing it correctly so that the EA attached to any

I am wanting to close a pending order (assume we are only talking about a OP_BUYSTOP here) if the (iMA-iATR) > OrderStopLoss() on every H1 Close calculation. If that is true, then delete the order, and send a new order out with the new

First off, I have done some reading around with other peoples issues in regards to the reliability of ST. I thought I'd quickly put a new thread up to hopefully get some answers to my specific problems I am having, and understanding more about how I

I have written some basic code to incorporate into my EA, where by, if the server time is out of my trading time frame, no trades will searched for, let alone any positions be placed. I have a few questions around this: 1) Can this be properly
