Run script through Expert Advisor

 

Hi there,

I would like to know if it is possible to run a script i have already made through a expert advisor and for it to not execute over and over but just once.

If there is already a forum on this please point me in the direction

Thanks everyone

 
Why not just add the code from the script into the EA . . and get it to run just once in the EA ?
 
I suppose if u had uses google u have find this

Yep, but that's backward, that person needs the script to run an EA, i want the ea to run the script.

It's not possible. Simple solution is turn the Script into a Function. Any other solutions along the lines of what you're looking for would basically be a Hack, and those are not reliable nor simple to say the least.

when i say it's possible then it's possible i personally did it

You're right

Go ahead and show us the code which does exactly that. No infinite loops, or windows dll. I wanna see this lol.

i'm so sorry AFAIK, a script is designed to execute just once

Yeah me too :(, Your link made me think of something. We could use infinite loops with Scripts, and use global variables to communicate with those Scripts. That'll be like having multiple EA's on a single chart (you could switch on and off) given Scripts run within their own Thread and all. I read that link before but it didn't click to me until today. Anyways I was gonna recommend that but the OP is not using any imagination or perhaps he's just new. So thats why I worded the not-possible.

I also taught the mt4 event suggestion was clever, but I'll need to learn windows coding in order to turn a Alert.wav into a dll call to mt4 which brings up scripts and post-message window manipulations.

True story, i am new, to the site, to coding as well. Never coded before.
