MetaTrader 4 Scripts
Scripts thread!
I noticed there isnt a thread for MetaTrader 4 scripts. I dont really have any, and the few I have collected dont work. Besides the buy scripts, which can be found almost everywere, maybe someone has a trailing stop script, or a close all script, etc. I had a "close all open and pending order", but it didnt work. Ill see if I can find it to post it anyway.
Thanks all,
- secXcessecXces,
It's a very good idea to have a thread for the scrpits( mql2 & mql4).
Hope to see this thread soon.

Here you can post your questions related to MQL4, and I'll do my best to answer them.codersguru I would like a script that executes a buy or sell order with stop loss and take profit when price crosses a trendline that I draw on the chart. Also, I would like the script to have the ability to disable the buy/sell function and only generate an alert when the trendline is crossed by the price. I hope you can help with this. Thank you very much, Happy New Year!
Can you please help me with the referencing of the previous value on an indicator for example:

Script to close all positions
Here is a little script I wrote that closes all open positions. You need to check "Alow Live Trading" option under Options > Expert Advisor tab in order for this script to work.
To Setup:
- Open up MetaEditor.
- Click File > New
- Select "Script program"
- Select replace all text with code below
- Compile & Run
I hope you find it as useful as I do.
