  1. Check your return codes, and report your errors (including market prices and your variables). Don't look at GLE/LE unless you have an error. Don't just silence the compiler (MT5/MT4+strict), it is trying to help you.

    1. Floating point has a infinite number of decimals, it's your not understanding floating point and that some numbers can't be represented exactly. (like 1/10.)

    2. Print out your values to the precision you want with DoubleToString - Conversion Functions - MQL4 Reference.

    3. SL/TP (stops) need to be normalized to tick size (not Point) — code fails on non-currencies.

    4. Open price for pending orders need to be adjusted. On Currencies, Point == TickSize, so you will get the same answer, but it won't work on non-currencies. So do it right.

    5. Lot size must also be adjusted to a multiple of LotStep and check against min and max. If that is not a power of 1/10 then NormalizeDouble is wrong. Do it right.

    6. MathRound() and NormalizeDouble() are rounding in a different way. Make it explicit.

    7. Prices you get from the terminal are already correct (normalized).

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

If you want to discuss your EA in the forum, you must also attach the source code for the EA.

I have not shared my EA name in any of the picture as well. I still am trying to figure out the answer
