Multi 10:4 Trader EA

[MrLong]

I seem to remember others having this or similar issue a while back. Multitudes of pendings opening and closing for the same pair. Have a look at the image - first 21 USDJPY and then 14 EURJPY all within a few minutes of each other. The pending is set just above WMR1 which is what you would expect - but why set and then cancel almost straight away.
Any thoughts

Check this out, on line 877 ish, do the following:

if (deleteStops)
{
mangeStopOrders(CurrentPair);
// mangeColorChange(CurrentPair); <===
}

Mr Long,

I have downloaded a new Global prime live account but v.2.4 of the ea will not attach to any chart.

Compiling the ea shows up the following error:-


'mt4gui.mqh' - cannot open the program file C:\Program Files (x86)\Global Prime Empty4 - LIVE B\experts\Multi_10_4_EAv2.04.mq4 (84, 1)

Can you please look into this.

Best regards

Hi,

You need to make sure you downloaded this file from page 1 and correctly installed it:

Thanks Andy - done.
Incidentally, it was on line 797 so you obviously have a bit more code in yours. Does this mean we are soon to be greeted with a later and greater version. Sure hope so. Keep up the great work.

They are ok, just saying they are not used.

Open Metaeditor and on the right hand side you should be able to see what looks like files. the file labelled include, has the file inside, double click and when it opens, hit the compile button at the top of the window.

Thank you Mr Long, the EA now attaches perfectly.

Many thanks for your all your efforts.

Just loaded on ATC demo.

Andy - I noticed that the external input of 'TradeComment' does not seem to be hooked up, it still adds 'Magic: xx' into the trade comment (at least in v2.02, have not checked v2.04).

How about an external input below the TradeComment:

Code: Select all

extern bool TimeStamp=true;

And then stamp the variable TradeComment with the current time before the OrderSend:

Code: Select all

if(TimeStamp)  {TradeComment = TimeToStr(TimeCurrent(),TIME_DATE|TIME_MINUTES);}

And then put the variable 'TradeComment' inrto the OrderSend command. If you would like to have the option of seeing the Magic Number in the order comment, then perhaps have this put in if the TradeComment is empty.

Just details, but I find it useful to have a time stamp. After a pending order has been filled with an open order, Empty4 won't give you the original date anymore, and a time stamp will still allow me to trace when the EA placed the pending order in first place (and assess whether I feel there was a strong rationale to do so or not).
