My EA sends email notifying me that the trade is still open. If EA sends too many emails then my ISP normally blocks the emails. any solution?

A few options . . .

  • Get a different ISP
  • Get a separate email host
  • Don't send lots of emails

Thank you for your inputs. Just one question came into my mind: How could I tell the EA to send me email when the total open trade loss amount reaches the interval of -25 to -35. That is, I want the EA to send me the email only if the total negative profit ( loss ) for the open trade reaches the interval between -25 to -35.

Loop . . .

OrderSelect()

if OrderProfit() < Figure

Send email

end of loop

If you have multiple order you just go to each Open order in the loop and keep a running total of the profit . . . then outside the loop check if it is lower than the figure you had in mind . . . you will also need to keep track that you have sent the email once and not send it again . . maybe you can build a delay in so you don't send the same email again for an hour or two . . .

OK. Thank you, however, would orderprofit() function show the current profit/loss amount of an open position?

Did you read the Documentation for OrderProfit() ? it says . . .

"Returns the net profit value (without swaps or commissions) for the selected order. For open positions, it is the current unrealized profit. For closed orders, it is the fixed profit. "
