In advance: I do not know some EA-internals, so I might be wrong.

I tried to use the EA on two charts in the same pair.
One only for short and the other only for long pendings, because I tried to use different SL- and TP-levels.
I did not setup the pending price for long or short vice versa.
The first attached EA did work by default short, but SL- and TP-levels seems to be get lost.
The second EA on the same pair long, attached to a second chart did not work, although it shows in the chart and in the dashboard, that a pending buy-order has been placed.

Independent from this, I got the attached message.
Maybe it has something to do with the internal automatics and/or the setup conditions.
I assume that it could be the ECN fature or a collision between MaxDiffprice and the tighten stop-levels.
If you need more detailed information, please let me know.

By the way, I´d like to ask, why it is not foreseen to enter with a initial order.

Would nice to get some advice.

Regards
Over60

as Spread is only for BUY on Ask, I suggest to modify OnTick() module like this :

Code: Select all

//      if( AllowedSpread(Symbol())==true )
//        {
         RefreshRates();

         if ((SignalBuy==true) && ( AllowedSpread(Symbol())==true ))
           {

               tp=Ask+TP*Point;
               sl=Ask-SL*Point;

               Alert("Attempting to buy ",lotForOrder," of ",Symbol());
               Print("Attempting to buy ",lotForOrder," of ",Symbol());
               
               SendSingleTrade(OP_BUY,"PendingEA",lotForOrder,Ask,sl,tp);
               
           }
         if(SignalSell==true)
           {
           
               tp=Bid-TP*Point;
               sl=Bid+SL*Point;

               Alert("Attempting to sell ",lotForOrder," of ",Symbol());
               Print("Attempting to sell ",lotForOrder," of ",Symbol());
               
               SendSingleTrade(OP_SELL,"PendingEA",lotForOrder,Bid,sl,tp);
             
           }// if (Bid < MonPrixBuy)
//        }// if( AllowedSpread(Symbol())==true )

This will correct a little problem that miss a SELL trade when spread > Average Spread !

Same modification, but for BUY only, in FridayClose module, to avoid a miss BUY close on BID cause spread > average spread

cheers

I have an error message when order modify if SL = 0 and TP = xx (30 in my example) -> invalid stop cause SL=BID ?

I have modify EA like this to avoid the bug :

Code: Select all

      tp = 0;
      if (TP>0) tp=Ask+TP*Point;
      
      sl = 0;
      if (SL>0) sl=Ask-SL*Point;

Tommaso,

Make it more user friendly by letting the EA read the current prize and from their will automatically set orders xx pips above/below it.

Good job.

Haggadah

extern bool    SetAutoPendingStopBuy=true;//sets a BuyStop order at Price+ DistancePendingToPrice
extern bool    SetAutoPendingStopSell=true;//sets a SellStop order at Price- DistancePendingToPrice
extern bool    SetAutoPendingLimitBuy=false;//sets a BuyLimit order at Price- DistancePendingToPrice
extern bool    SetAutoPendingLimitSell=false;////sets a SellLimit order at Price+ DistancePendingToPrice
extern double  DistancePendingToPrice=40;//Distance in Pips from actual Price
