I have a trading algorithm set up with the MT5 python system and I noticed that it doesn't consistently execute trades as it should. I don't get any error messages, and if I re-run the algorithm again it will sometimes execute the exact same trade that didn't previously execute. No variables are

I've learned mql5 iteratively as I've been building my system. In the process, gotten better about abstraction, functional/oop design, using structures and arrays, reusing vars, constants, etc. My issue now is optimizing my code. It runs fine live since single thread performance isn't that big of a

Hi all, My goal is to write a simple EA that cancels pending buy stops or sell stops whenever current price moves past original stop price. The EA - code attached below - works flawlessly for test sell stops (commented code for test sell stop). Yet, for test buy stops, the EA cancels pending order

Hello everyone I cannot get this thing to work. I am trying to read a moving average buffer from a downloaded indicator (AllAverages_v4.9_MT5), and want to read a few values to calculate entry (eg close above MA for a buy). I'll attach the indi file and paste my EA code. #include <Trade\Trade.mqh>

Hi all, maybe someone knows whether there will ever be the possibility of showing "Positions" in the backtest report?

Greetings, I did some testing with .ZOrder method in AppDialog, and I found out that no matter where I put the Button.ZOrder call, it does not set the ZOrder of the object actually, so I looked that part up in WndObj.mqh, and i saw that the virtual bool OnSetZOrder( void ) {

Hi all. I've had an EA developed which uses two time frames, ie a higher time frame requiring conditions be met, and a lower timeframe for execution.

Sometimes I want the fast genetic optimization to test for many more possibilities than it does. I have a small neural network that seemingly has tons of local minimums. For each weight it could find a good value that it gets closer to but there is a much better negative value that it doesn't test
