Coding help - page 88

 

Dear Mladen,

Sorry about the basic question - I am always in trouble when a code needs operation with date and time. There is a constant 120 in Line 97 of AverageJoe EA you posted in this forum a couple of days ago:

if (OrderType() == OP_SELL && CurTime()-LastSellTime >=120) result = OrderClose( OrderTicket(), OrderLots(), MarketInfo(OrderSymbol(), MODE_BID), 5, Red );

What is the measurement unit of that 120?

Regards,

Chrisstoff

Chrisstoff Those are seconds (metatrader save time as a number of seconds passes since 1.1.1970 if I am not mistaken, but the point is that it always works with seconds when a datetime variable is declared or a function like CurrentTime() is called)

Mladen,

Thank you for the fast response.

That is someone trying to combine code from tadestation with a code from metatrader. It will not work that way and it can not be combined that way

 

To :mladen

Could you into MT4 okay? A section of TS code, I will not write MT4 . Thank you.

From that what you posted it is not possible to see what it should do

 

To :mladen

I would like to ask how to do ?

Thank you

For start, you will first have to read these : https://www.mql5.com/en/forum/172969/page2 and then something similar for tradestation and then you can convert code from one coding language to another coding language

But this code does not write , trouble you into MT4 okay ? Extremely grateful
