- If a trading strategy fails, why the opposite of the trading strategy also fail??
- Strategy Tester - Spread. Optimization results useless without spread?

Can I modell when something happens on H4 with ask and bid, or maybe by comparing price on H4 with price on lower timeframes as M1?
If you want a useful answer you need to expand on your question. What do you want to do exactly?
Exactly: Open an order when the price is above the close price on previous bar. I don´t whant to wait until the current bar has closet, because I think that is to late. Can I use 1) ask 2) or close on M1 as trigger on the fourhour-modell to open the order earlier?

Hi,
I have an error in this EA that I can´t find: '\end_of_program' - unbalanced left parenthesis C:\Program Files\FXCM MetaTrader 4\experts\EURUSD T pyramid.mq4 (107, 2).
Have looked over the logic severel times and I´m quite sure that the code is according to my plan. The strategy is simple: Use DNC-linje for open and to determine limit and stop, if loss increase the volym.
- The first method "CalculateCurrentOrders" just calculate the orders.
- "Start" check if the last order was a profit, and don´t open a new order the same day if there already is a profit that day.
- "CheckForOpen" method look how many losses have been done and calculate the new volume. The limit and stop i also calculated here.
The error is on row 107, it´s after the last row in the code. Can you se what is wrong?

You have more problems than your brace counts . . . DayOfYear() for example . . maybe you mean TimeDayOfYear() ?
try this, it fixes the braces issue only . . .
void start() { //---- check for history and trading if(Bars<100 || IsTradeAllowed()==false) return; if(CalculateCurrentOrders(Symbol())==0){ if ( TimeHour(TimeCurrent()) > 6 && TimeHour(TimeCurrent()) < 21){ if( DayOfYear(TimeCurrent()) > DayOfYear(OrderCloseTime()) ){ OrderSelect(OrdersHistoryTotal()-1,SELECT_BY_POS,MODE_HISTORY); if(OrderProfit()>0) CheckForOpen(); } if( DayOfYear(TimeCurrent()) == DayOfYear(OrderCloseTime()) ){ OrderSelect(OrdersHistoryTotal()-1,SELECT_BY_POS,MODE_HISTORY); if(OrderProfit()<0) CheckForOpen(); } } } }
Ofcourse it shall be Time... hard to se everything sometimes, thanks.
I have minimized the code a bit:
- "CalculateCurrentOrders" is the same as before. Taken from the EA example in MT4.
- "Start" does this (or is supose to do):
* Only open a new trades if no other orders are open (2nd if statement).
* Only open trades between 6 and 21 (3rd if statement).
* Open trade if at least 1 day has past since last profitable trade (4rd and 5th if statement).
* If opening new trade the same day, last trade have to be a loss (6th and 7th)
* To be able to start the first time, open trade if there are no trades in the history (last if statement in the start method).
- "CheckForOpen"
* h and l are the values for the maximun and minimum line.
* Since last time I have done a for-loop to calculate the volume. If there is a loss the same day the volume will be multiplied with 2. The "break" is because only losses in one sequence are counted.
* The rest is just to feel the the entryprice and send the trades.
I STILL HAVE THE SAME ERROR IN THE LAST LINE (SE ATTACHED PICTURE). Are you able to se it?

Nope . . .
Learn to count braces . . . . count the left ones, count the right ones . . . they have to match
OrderSelect(OrdersHistoryTotal()-1,SELECT_BY_POS,MODE_HISTORY); if( (TimeDayOfYear(TimeCurrent())) > (TimeDayOfYear(OrderCloseTime()) ) ){ if(OrderProfit()>0){ CheckForOpen(); } } OrderSelect(OrdersHistoryTotal()-1,SELECT_BY_POS,MODE_HISTORY); if( (TimeDayOfYear(TimeCurrent()))==(TimeDayOfYear(OrderCloseTime()) ) ){ if(OrderProfit()<0) { CheckForOpen(); }
if you get rid of the braces you DON'T need it will be even easier . . . for example
OrderSelect(OrdersHistoryTotal()-1,SELECT_BY_POS,MODE_HISTORY); if( TimeDayOfYear(TimeCurrent()) > TimeDayOfYear(OrderCloseTime()) ) if(OrderProfit() > 0) CheckForOpen(); OrderSelect(OrdersHistoryTotal()-1,SELECT_BY_POS,MODE_HISTORY); if( TimeDayOfYear(TimeCurrent()) == TimeDayOfYear(OrderCloseTime()) ) if(OrderProfit() < 0) CheckForOpen(); if(OrdersHistoryTotal() == 0) CheckForOpen();
Nope . . .

Hi, have deleted some of the braces you are refering to. Have counted them and I´m sure they are in balance. But still the same error after compiling. At one moment I had the idea that maybe the increase in volume is to agressiv, but it is not that. Now I´m out of ideas. Still the same error.
