Thanks serpentsnoir, I code it like this, it give error 130 (invalid stop), please help
Code:
extern double TakeProfit = 50; extern double Lots=1; extern double MagicNumber=12345; int start() { //---- int ticket, cnt, total; if(TakeProfit<10) { Print("TakeProfit less than 10"); return(0); // check TakeProfit } //start trade - sell total = OrdersTotal(); if(total < 1) //if no trade open { if (Close[1] > Open[1] && Bid-3*Point < Low[1]) { ticket=OrderSend(Symbol(),OP_SELL,Lots,Ask,3,0,Ask+TakeProfit*Point,"My EA",MagicNumber,0,Red); if(ticket>0) { if(OrderSelect(ticket,SELECT_BY_TICKET,MODE_TRADES)) Print("SELL order opened : ",OrderOpenPrice()); } else Print("Error opening SELL order : ",GetLastError()); return(0); } } //---- return(0); }

ticket=OrderSend(Symbol(),OP_SELL,Lots,Ask,3,0,Ask+TakeProfit*Point,"My EA",MagicNumber,0,Red);
- You BUY at the ASK, you SELL at the BID
- For a SELL, your takeProfits would be LOWER then the open price.
- For 4/5 digit brokers you must adjust TP, SL, AND slippage. For ECN brokers you must open first and then set stops.
