Manage Multiple trades

Hey all,

I'm trying to develop an EA which can theoretically enter an infinite amount of trades, and manage for each trade the:

Trailing Stop
Move to BE
ATR-Trailing Stop
etc

I know EAs like swiss army and manageTP can do this. I don't know how.

Any suggestions?

i would like to seek a code that can provide me to the solution of my stategies below;

examples;

martingle concept-

TP = 23 pips

Pip gaps = 20

OP buy EU 0.1,0.2,0.4,0.8,1.6 lot

1. if layer on lot 1,6 floating more than -20pips then OP Sell EU with 12.8lot (tp 23).

2. if layer 12.8 lot hit TP close all EU position.

3. if 12.8 lot pip=0 then close position on Sell EU only.

4. repeat situation 1 until 3 again if the condition apply.

coding question

Right now this code works by checking to see if the current opening is higher than the previous bar. My question is how would I change it if I wanted it to see if it was higher OR EQUAL TO the previous bar?

if(Open[0] > Open[0+1] &&

Open[0+1] > Open[0+2] &&

Open[0+2]> Open[0+3] &&

Open[0+3] > Open[0+4] &&

Open[0+4] > Open[0+5] &&

Open[0+5] > Open[0+6]) Order = SIGNAL_SELL

Would I just add a = next to the greater than sign, like this = >?

Thanks!

To just inverse change OP_BUY with OP_SELL and the inverse action in the right codeline.

[Deleted] 2008.07.22 21:40 #1088

oneg:
try this:

if(Open[0] => Open[0+1] &&

Open[0+1] => Open[0+2] &&

Open[0+2]=> Open[0+3] &&

Open[0+3] => Open[0+4] &&

Open[0+4] => Open[0+5] &&

Open[0+5] => Open[0+6]) Order = SIGNAL_SELL

That didn't work, but putting the = sign after the > sign worked. Like this:

if(Open[0] >= Open[0+1] &&

Open[0+1] >= Open[0+2] &&

Open[0+2]>= Open[0+3] &&

Open[0+3] >= Open[0+4] &&

Open[0+4] >= Open[0+5] &&

Open[0+5] >= Open[0+6]) Order = SIGNAL_SELL
