1. Why did you post your MT4 question in the MT5 General section instead of the MQL4 section, (bottom of the Root page)?
             General rules and best pratices of the Forum. - General - MQL5 programming forum?
   Next time post in the correct place. The moderators will likely move this thread there soon.

2. Kevola: an anyone help me to put Trailing stop for my EA ... i tried many ways but trailing stop is not activating when i am putting it on strategy tester... please help...

   Don't lie to us. Your posted code doesn't have a trailing stop.

   Help you with what? You haven't stated a problem, you stated a want. Show us your attempt (using the CODE button) and state the nature of your problem.
