This doesn't seem to do anything.
I made it an EA in mataeditor. It compiled with no errors. I closed and reopened mt4.
I added the EA to the chart. Left the default setting. It doesnt move the stop. I'm doing something wrong, maybe?
Oh, thank you for helping... :)
Do you have such an open order with MAGIC no. 12345
(int Magic = 12345;
if(OrderSymbol() == Symbol() && OrderMagicNumber() == Magic))
Do you have such an open order with MAGIC no. 12345
(int Magic = 12345;
if(OrderSymbol() == Symbol() && OrderMagicNumber() == Magic))
I did some reading on magic number. I put in comment 12345, MAGIC no. 12345, and a random number I made up when placing the order and nothing worked.
Do I need something in the comment when I start a trade? What do I need to do?
as far as i know there is no way to use MAGIC no. manually only with OrderSend(), & comment has nothing to do with that (MAGIC No.)
just change:
if(OrderSymbol() == Symbol() && OrderMagicNumber() == Magic)
to:
if(OrderSymbol() == Symbol())
just change:
to:
What he is gonna be with the rest of that same symbol that he dont want to use it
i guessed he just wanted to test it.
if he wants to use it on special trades, I suggest he makes a comment to those trades and use that to trail them.

I'm looking for a bar by bar trailing stop (EA I guess).
Once the bar closes I would like the stop moved under it by so many pips (I can set how many 2, 5, etc).
I searched and couldnt find anything.
Thanks
