MT5 compile error

New comment
 

I'm trying to compile a program written by someone else, and I'm getting an error. I'm showing in the code section the part of the code that's giving me a problem, a section that's designed to execute a buy.

The line that's giving me a problem, per the compiler, is:


MqlTradeRequest req= {0};


And the error being reported is:

cannot convert 0 to enum 'ENUM_TRADE_REQUEST_ACTIONS' MultipleOrdersEA MT5 Rev 1.4.mq5 517 29


Here's the relevant code (I tried using the Code control but I'm apparently not understanding how that works, because the code appears but the rest of the message disappears):

  2. MqlTradeRequest req/*= {0}*/;

    The code below that, initializes the structure.
