A few things....

You didn't write the code for the EA.

//#property copyright "fxeabuilder.com"
//#property link "www.fxeabuilder.com"

After examining the code you provided however, I can tell you that the code base as supplied is a mess and extremely horribly written.

You would be far better off learning to properly code, or simply hire a professional to do it for you.

Additional resources which you might find helpful would be:

2. • We hate EA builder
   • You couldn't be bothered to learn mql4, therefor there is no common language for us to communicate.
   • There are only two choices: learn to code it, or pay someone. We're not going to code it FOR you. We are willing to HELP you when you post your attempt (using SRC) and the nature of your problem, but we are not going to debug your hundreds lines of code.
   • EA builder makes bad code counting up while closing multiple orders.
   • EA builder makes bad code Bars is unreliable (max bars on chart) volume is unreliable (miss ticks) Always use time. New candle - MQL4 forum
   • EA builder makes bad code Not adjusting for 4/5 digit brokers, TP/SL and slippage:
     double   pip          = StringFind(_Symbol,"JPY") < 0 ? 0.01 : 0.0001;
     int      pipDigits    = (int)MathLog10(pip/_Point);
     int      pipsToPoints = int(pip / _Point);
     int      slippage     = 3 * pipsToPoints;

   • EA builder makes bad code not checking return codes.
   • EATree uses objects on chart to save values - not persistent storage (files or GV+Flush.) No recovery (crash/reboot.)
