I got ripped off by one of there programmers in the freelance section and they are siding with that programmer. I paid with a debit card I should do a charge back but they will probably ban me I don't know what to do? I proved to them the programmer had selective hearing and messed up my EA but they still side with every single developer it's not fare. What would you do?

HI,

I have been trying to put together my first self made EA I ahve been able to solve the 1st issue with stochastic now its the candle wick length. I want to instruct the EA to only take trades when the upper wick is greater than or equal to 20pips for a sell and the lower wick is greater than or equal to 20pips. Below is a code I created but I am not sure if it is correct because it does not work well:

For buy

For sell.

Is there standard way of writing this?

well this is how I did to find top wick:

double topwick() {
   double output = 0; //initialize the value for the following function
   double close = iClose(NULL,0,1); //value of close for previous candle
   double open = iOpen(NULL,0,1); //value of open for previous candle
   double high = iHigh(NULL,0,1); //value of high for previous candle
   if(close > open){ //if the candle is moving up
      output = (high - close)/Point;
   }else{ //if the candle is moving down
      output = (high - open)/Point;
   }
   return NormalizeDouble(output,0); // return a result for topwick() function 
}

then use the function for something else for example:

bool buy_condition_3() { return (topwick() >= 20/*point*/);}

you can modify the function for bottom wick.

There is no standard way of writing this. Its all depend on your coding style.

[William Roeder]

      output = (high - open)/Point;
   }
   return NormalizeDouble(output,0); // return a result for topwick() function in pips

PIP, Point, or Tick are all different in general.
