not enough money - issue submitting code to marketplace

New comment
 

Trying to sort out this issue, I see the recommended code below: (however i do not know where to add it, already tried but no result yet)


bool CheckMoneyForTrade(string symb, double lots,int type)
  {
   double free_margin=AccountFreeMarginCheck(symb,type, lots);
   //-- if there is not enough money
   if(free_margin<0)
     {
      string oper=(type==OP_BUY)? "Buy":"Sell";
      Print("Not enough money for ", oper," ",lots, " ", symb, " Error code=",GetLastError());
      return(false);
     }
   //--- checking successful
   return(true);
  }

This is not “recommended code”. That is a function definition. If you do not understand how to call a function, learn to code or pay someone.

Show us your attempt (using the CODE button) and state the nature of your difficulty.

We're not going to code it for you (although it could happen if you are lucky or the issue is interesting).

Something like this.

I'm going to bed.


OnTick(){

        string symbol=_Symbol;

        double lot_size=  0.10;

        //https://docs.mql4.com/constants/tradingconstants/orderproperties

        int type = OP_BUY ;            //0 = OP_BUY, 1 =OP_SELL, ...


        if ( Buy_Conditions == true && CheckMoneyForTrade(symbol, lot_size, type) )
        {
                // Buy Market Function ;
        
        }
        


}

I am doing all the above. So your post is not helpful at all.

ok at least you helped lol i called it. let me see if it works.

 

I called the function as below and still get the errors as below. 

 string symbol = "NZDUSD"; // Example symbol
    double lotSize = 1.0;     // Example lot size
    int tradeType = OP_BUY;   // Example trade type, OP_BUY or OP_SELL

    // Call CheckMoneyForTrade with the specified parameters
    if(!CheckMoneyForTrade(symbol, lotSize, tradeType)) {
        // If the function returns false, it means there's not enough margin
        Print("Initialization failed: Insufficient margin to trade ", symbol, " with ", lotSize, " lots.");
        return(INIT_FAILED);  // Initialization fails
    }

    // Other initialization code here...

    return(INIT_SUCCEEDED);  // Initialization successful
}

get this error below

You had enough money on initialization.


You need to call it OnTick().

like in my example, I gave earlier.
