For example, when line val1[c] crosses 0.45 upwards, the time value is assigned to variable TimeBegin
How do you assign this time to a variable ?
Well, the arrows are on the opening bar.
I'm not quite sure I understand. there are arrows on the opening bar, but drawn by the corresponding function - OrderSend(). These arrows are not related to the arrows drawn by OrderModify(), are they? I understood that using OrderModify(), I not only colour arrows, but also change the level of stop loss, by changing the value of variable SL? It is written in the help:
Changes parameters of previously opened positions or pending orders.
It means that it changes not only the arrow colour but also "changes parameters of previously opened" orders. It suggests that it should change stops and draw arrows. But it doesn't do it for some reason.
The word "only" was about the arrow, not about what the function does.
стрелки на баре открытия есть, но нарисованные соответствующей функцией - OrderSend(). Эти стрелки же не относятся к стрелкам, рисуемым OrderModify()?
What I'm talking about, you set a stop and/or a take, and that's how the arrows change.
How do you assign this time to a variable ?
there is such a feature in Kim's collection
Can you be more specific? Where do I find it? Where can I find the Kim's collection?
The word "only" was about the arrow, not about what the function does.
You can use the function to set a stop and/or a take, so its arrows will change.
The OrderModify() manual says:
arrow_color - Colour of StopLoss and/or TakeProfit modification arrows on the chart. If this parameter is missing or its value is CLR_NONE, the arrows will not appear on the chart.
That is, as far as I understood it, OrderModify() draws sticks because it says "MODIFICATION arrows", which means that there are not only open/close arrows created by OrderSend, but also modification arrows created by OrderModify. And these MODIFICATION arrows can be missing only if parameter is absent or equal to CLR_NONE. But my parameter is present and equal to "Green". I understood that there is no special parameter responsible for presence or absence of modification arrows, it is controlled by absence or equality of its CLR_NONE. I judge by analogy with OrderSend in the same helper:
arrow_color - colour of opening arrow on the chart. If the parameter is missing or its value is CLR_NONE, the opening arrow is not displayed in the graph.
Please help with isCloseLastPosByStop function ().
I insert into MetaEditor function isCloseLastPosByStop () (but only what is written on https://www.mql5.com/ru/forum/107476/page21).
After an unsuccessful compilation I get errors:
'(' - function definition unexpected
't' - variable not defined
't' - variable not defined
'}' - unbalanced parentheses
It's this function, as I've commented on the rest of the code.
Hi all! Please help combine the following things. The result should be: two lines following the price, one 20 pips below Ask,
the other one is higher. Besides, I get a beep if price changes by 20 points per 1 tick.
All works fine separately. Thanks in advance!
1) The line is 20 pips below Ask.
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
//| expert initialization function |
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
int start()
{
ObjectCreate("MyPriceLine", OBJ_HLINE, 0, 0, Ask-20*Point) ;
ObjectSet("MyPriceLine", OBJPROP_PRICE1, Ask-20*Point);
return(0);
}
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
2) Line above Ask by 20p.
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
//| expert initialization function |
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
int start()
{
ObjectCreate("MyPriceLine", OBJ_HLINE, 0, 0, Ask+20*Point) ;
ObjectSet("MyPriceLine", OBJPROP_PRICE1, Ask+20*Point);
return(0);
}
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
3) Rate of price change over time.
