Please advise, I have written a simple program. It sets buystop and sellstop orders. I used simple scripts from the tutorial, but they do not work during sharp price movements. I should get them triggered at any price:
if (condition)
{ here is where I need the script};
Thanks in advance
Please advise.
It means that the price could not go down by more than 230 pips on any of the positions.
Why does the tester show the equity drawdown at 244 points?
If the price lost 244 points on some position, the stop-loss would be triggered.
After the stop, the new order slipped 14 pips.
I read the last few pages with your reasoning. You considered the worst case scenarios. Let's assume you believe that after a stop loss (if there is one) you will definitely post a profit. In that case 1$x400pp=$400 (40% drawdown), then you increase the lot 1.5 times, then you need to take into account that before reaching the profit, the possible drawdown is 398pp, which gives us another (1.5$x398pp=$597). As a result we get bankruptcy, this is without taking into account the deposit.
After the stop, the new order has dropped by 14 pips.

An example from MQL4 Reference
File operations 
FileWriteDouble
int handle; double var1=0.345; handle=FileOpen("mydata.dat", FILE_BIN|FILE_WRITE); if(handle<1) { Print("can't open file error-",GetLastError()); return(0); } FileWriteDouble(h1, var1, DOUBLE_VALUE); // FileClose(handle);
