Help open parenthesis expected

[lion999]

I have no knowledge of coding yet while compiling an ea i managed to reduce the 15 errors to just 2, both are the same  ''   'if' - open parenthesis expected    ''  and when i click on this error it leads me to this point in the code which i cannot rectify      

  void tick22()
 {if {tick22==true} {

and the cusor is just after the curly bracket before if

i changed this code " {if (tick22==true) { "  to the above " {if {tick22==true} { " and reduced 15 errors to 2 errors

can anyone help me please

Next time use SRC button to post the code

 

do this

 void tick22()
 {
  if (tick22==true) 
    {

    }
 }

Be careful when writing parenthesis { and } with ( and ).

Hope you have define tick22 variable before coz if not you will have more error though .

1. Please don't post image, of code. When you post code please use the CODE button (Alt-S)! (For large amounts of code, attach it.) Please edit your post.

2. Your code is

   if {myAccountEquity - myAccountBalance) > 10 
     (
       CloseAllOrders();
     )

   Look at the documentation.
             Conditional Operator if-else - Operators - Language Basics - MQL4 Reference
   The if statement form is if ( condition ) statement; or if ( condition ) { controlled; statements; }. Your code doesn't have an open parenthesis (per the error message.) It has an open brace.
             Correct brackets/bracers {} - MQL4 and MetaTrader 4 - MQL4 programming forum - Page 2

3. You have a closing parenthesis without an open
4. You have no closing parenthesis after the end of your condition.
5. You have no braces for your controlled statements.

I followed the steps and, here is what it says-

Grigorv: ok I did exactly what you described and this is what it says-

No you didn't.

1. What part of "Please don't post image of code" was unclear?
   

2. What part of "if ( condition ) { controlled; statements; }" was unclear?

   if   { myAccountEquitey - myAccountBalance) > 10)}
   
      (
        CloseAllOrders();
      )

3. What part of "You have a closing parenthesis without an open" was unclear?

      CloseAllOrders ()

I asked you to use code button twice. Ignored three times (two images and one text.)

I showed you the difference between parentheses () and braces {} but you refuse to look, read, and learn.

Go to freelance and pay someone. I doubt anyone here can help you.
