Do not double post.

I have deleted your duplicate topic.

Mustafa Nail Sertoglu 2020.04.12 11:33 #2

objemmanuel1997:

I think, you have 2 options

a ) should have conditions to close order and call closePosition()

b) or should call closePosition()

within Ontick() part of your program

since I did not see any call for closePosition() in main process ( only there is call for open order),

wish you healthy days..

Useful features from KimIV Where did I do How to check if

still not working sir

I do not have your indicator; found something similar and revised your code and when i compiled saw that

a ) ur code has 2 closePosition() routine but cannot do same operations,

b) in testing i look at the last page of "Strategy Tester Visualization" and see " 2020.03.09 01:15:00 Not Checked! ERROR :10016 " ; so "NO BUY or SELL order could not opened" as you mentioned you have orders opened but EA did not close any.

Please check your code again ..

nail sertoglu: a ) ur code has 2 closePosition() routine

Please don't write ur - it's "you are" or "your" - MQL4 programming forum 2014.03.04

YOUR EA is working now ; but in my short test EA open only BUY orders, you should check all your conditions / specifications for order open / close ..

So it doesnt open SELL orders? does it open and close?

I have "22 warnings" and did not cause to stop ,

please go on/over the codes to find your mistakes and test your EA then revise as you wish :) :)
