HELP ! EA is not taking any Trades

New comment
 

Hello.

This EA is getting 0 Errors, but its not taking any trades, when i test it.


Buy Rules :

HMA Trend Indicator = Greenline

ROC = crossing 0 from below or >0


Sell Rules :

HMA Trend Indicator = Redline

ROC = crossing 0 from above or <0


Where is my mistake ?

Some condition it is never met
 
you have to check your logical business
 
maybe is never empty value in that if condition
 
I am not a good programmer but that looks like mql4 to me and i cant see the order send function at all, what i can detect that ur code will do calculations in the background and no condition will be meet hence wont do anything it wont even print a thing
 
Marius Ovidiu Sunzuiana:

It is. The problem is the cross over. As soon as that’s in, it’s not taking trades anymore.

There is some OrderSend

And it’s sending orders, when I remove the crossover
 
Found Your Error lol please recheckyour cross Function.
int Cross(){
    double
    ROC_2=iCustom(NULL,0,"ROC1",RPeriod,UsePercent,0,2),
    ROC_1=iCustom(NULL,0,"ROC1",RPeriod,UsePercent,0,1);

   if(ROC_2<=0 && ROC_1>0){return(1);}
   if(ROC_2>=0 && ROC_1<0){return(-1);}
   return(0);

Try and remove the last line that will always return Zero

Fix to this

int Cross()
   {
//+=======================================
//|Assisted by jeffiq
//+=======================================
     double
     ROC_2=iCustom(NULL,0,"ROC1",RPeriod,UsePercent,0,2),
     ROC_1=iCustom(NULL,0,"ROC1",RPeriod,UsePercent,0,1);

       
bool bull,bear; 
if(ROC_2<=0 && ROC_1>0)bull;
if(ROC_2>=0 && ROC_1<0)bear;

    // Buy Rules
        if (Bull)
        if (sell_hmaprevious!=EMPTY_VALUE && sell_hmacurrent==EMPTY_VALUE && buy_hmacurrent!=EMPTY_VALUE)
        
          {
        if (OrderSend(Symbol(), OP_BUY, lots, Ask, 3, Ask - stopLoss * Point, Ask + takeProfit * Point, "1", 12345, 0, Green)) {
            Print("Buy order succeeded!");
        }
    }
    
    

   // Sell Rules
        if(Bear)
        if(buy_hmaprevious!=EMPTY_VALUE && buy_hmacurrent==EMPTY_VALUE && sell_hmacurrent!=EMPTY_VALUE)
        
         {
        if (OrderSend(Symbol(), OP_SELL, lots, Bid, 3, Bid + stopLoss * Point, Bid - takeProfit * Point, "2", 12345, 0, Red)) {
            Print("Sell order succeeded!");


    }
  

But thats wrong i think



Better yet remove Cross functionand put everything in to OnTick and make conditions boolian

Thank you ! its just giving me one error now. If i delet the return(0); itll give me that error.
