Yep:

This works – thanks for it!

Ok:

… and do you like this kind of work? I for myself try to avoid it.

Quite a good explanation of CrapT4 crappy price feed can be found over here:

Just a quick note about links to be studied and possibly used for coding later:

Yep:

Since structures were introduced to MQL I can’t imagine how I ever got along without them!

I think that in one EA there should be only one function that manipulates the SL. And if there’s a good reason for two different functions doing so (one trailing stop function and one break even function) we’ve got two possibilities: either implement some sort of communication protocol between those functions so they can’t work against each…[Read more]

Great work:

I tested it, and after activating DLL import it displayed a line, except for timeframe M1. When placed on an M1 chart, every second indicator buffer ImpactBuffer is empty, so no line is displayed. I failed to find the reason in 5 minutes, so I’ll just report.

One basic question: why do you exclude bar zero in your main loop in…[Read more]

One more thing: for a more elaborate example of how to use structures in practice, just study the latest news calendar version fuzzy posted lately.

Great!

As I posted somewhere else in this forum, I made the first steps of my ‘coding career’ using IBM punchcards and a language named FORTRAN 77 (now it’s up to you to make a guess about my physical age ) Anyway, OOP was not yet invented in those times.

Until now, I failed to get a good grip on the OOP approach. An experienced OOP tutor…[Read more]

One additional remark for those who are not familiar with the concept of complex data types: in my above example, I only used structure members of type double. Please note that this could be any data type:
struct trailingStopParameters {
double trailingDistance;             // trailing distance
double trailingStep;                 // tra…[Read more]

@smallcat and everybody else interested:

Maybe try to change your view on our community project for a short while: consider we’re not only coding one EA, but a collection of flexible and exchangeable trading software modules instead. The overall goal of these modules should be to facilitate coding an EA, and the EAs which are the result of our…[Read more]

I absolutely agree:

That would also lead to a well-structured design based on exchangeable modules instead of a monolithic design that’s getting harder to manage with each additional feature.

To make single modules exchangeable, it’s also required to refrain from any use of global (input) variables inside those functions. Every function should…[Read more]

Hi @VlanFx

I think that I have a solution now regarding our Partial Closing vs. Moving SL to BE issue. My solution aims to address both functions independently from each other, with no logic interdependence. Also the triggers for both values are volatility based using ATR multiples. Partial close will only be performed once per original…[Read more]

Yes:

The same link as mine – thanks for confirming!
