Need help programming some indicators/EAs

Hello,

I am not a great programmer by any stretch (nor even a basic, decent one ), so I was wondering if anyone here would be willing to lend me a hand programming a simple EA for me.

Please PM me if you would like the information for this project.

Also, does anyone know of or can anyone program an indicator which is a pivot point moving average? (ie instead of the MA being calculated using close prices, it would be calculated using previous (H+L+C/3) prices.)

Thanks in advance!
Do you know how to program Custom indicator?

No... that's why I need help.
If you look at this thread. You can have info on how start programing a basic indicator... But you must want to program... ;-)
There is a link to a good pdf lesson on Programming and MT4 application.

Hello,

You can do this with the built-in Moving Average indicator by changing the Close Price to Typical Price.

In MQ4 you would do

iMA( NULL, 0, period, 0, MODE_SMA, PRICE_TYPICAL, shift );

See http://docs.mql4.com/indicators/iMA for details

Thanks very much! I will do that.
Hello everyone,

I wonder if I might ask for the help of some of the more experienced MT4 programmers here:

I thought I had programmed my Expert Advisor correctly, everything compiled with no errors, but then when I plug it into the strategy tester, I get no trade results. I know from manual backtesting that this system DOES yield trades, which of course means there's something wrong in my code that's keeping it from opening any orders.

Would someone mind taking a look at it and pointing out any errors it contains? Thanks so much.

Try changing the == below to > in the first if and < in the second if. The way it is now, you'll enter only when the the close price is exactly ema + entrypips and that will never happen.

PHP Code
  if (total < maxLots) 
   {
   if (Close[0] == ema + EntryPips*Point && Low[1] < ema){
   placeLongTrade();
   }
   else if (Close[0] == ema - EntryPips*Point && High[1] > ema){
   placeShortTrade();
   }

Thanks, 4xCoder... now I have more problems.
1) It still won't open short positions.
2) How would I get it to not open multiple positions at the same price and time?

1) don't know, maybe that will come another day
2) add some global variable:
bool tradedone=false;
Add "tradedone = true" in your function placeLongTrade and placeShortTrade and add after int total=OrdersTotal(); something like "if (total == 0) tradedone = false;"
Hi, Can someone help me program this indicator that gives me an alert and a pop up window when price hits the MA?

I need a programmer to help me create a hedging EA as following logic: The first order is based on current price / position open a buystop or sell stop from x distance from current price. After the first order is triggered, immediately open a stop order (buy stop or sell stop) in opposite direction a number of pip above sell order or below buy order with double lot size. If the second order is triggered, immediately open a stop order in opposite direction to the second order with double lot size . ..... and so on for third, fourth....... orders.After doubling the lot size in second order, the same lot size should be maintained in all other orders. If the total profit from all orders reach a specific $ value (this value is a input parameter of EA), the EA must close all opening orders and delete the stop order. After closing orders it will immediately start the cycle again. Here is an example. If the EA open a buystop order with 0.1 lot and after this order get triggered the EA should immediately open a sell stop order 10 pips below the opening price of the first order with 0.2 lot. If the second order is triggered, the EA must open a buy stop order in the same first buy order price with lot size 0.2 and so on........ for the third, fourth, fifth ........orders. If the total profit of all opening orders reach a $ value, let say $20, then the EA must close all opening orders and the stop order as well. After that the cycle starts again. The lot size of the first order, the $value of profit target, the number of pip to open stop order must be input parameters of the EA. The EA should also have common features like magic number, trading hour, comment........ and should be useable with nonUSD account.

What platforms do you find give the best pricing
Coding Master I ask for help to make the EA with the rules:


Selling Setup

We use the daily chart shows that the price moves up close and into the area of ​​Supply (resistance). All Zone Supply / Demand = All Zone side way
( See pic 1 )

Simple Strategies:

1. S / D areas identified in the TF H1.
2. When the candle is made ​​of high (A) on the H1 chart, moved to the intra-day time frame (M15 or M5) to explore opportunities Sell / Short entry. Use Breakout or Pullback to make decition entry BUY or SELL.
3. In this small TF looking up the last candle is followed by a down candle. (picture below/pic 2-4)
4. Entry made ​​on the second candle down ( trade SELL ), and do not need to wait for his close-(picture below/pic 2-4)
5. StopLoss.
6.TStop.
