Hi,

How can a user change the OPERATIONS AND RELATIONS since they can't access the MQ4 file? what do i need to code so that they are able to change from< to = ?

Inserted Code
iMA(_Symbol,PERIOD_M15,MA100,MA100S,MA100METHOD,MA100PRICE,i)>iMA(_Symbol,PERIOD_M15,MA200,MA200S,MA200METHOD,MA200PRICE,i)[color=#656565][font=verdana][/font][/color]

U need to show a bigger context,or where u want to use it.For me is still unclear what u are trying to do...The result will always be true or false for any combination of

True if a is equal to b a == b;
True if a is not equal to b a != b;
True if a is less than b a < b;
True if a is greater than b a > b;
True if a is less than or equal to b a <= b;
True if a is greater than or equal to b a >= b;

It's show time

i understand that sir. what i mean is, is there any way that user can change it in the INPUT sections? as now it's already been coded in the MQ4 format

It can be done on the input section using a enum option list where the selected option is going to trigger the needed operation < = > or whatever u want.
Inserted Code
enum options
{
option1=0,  // will trigger <
option2 =1,  // will trigger ==
option3=2  // will trigger >
};
extern options SelectOption = option1; //in the input menu



//and then later in the code:
Inserted Code
if(SelectOption==option1)if(iMA(_Symbol,PERIOD_M15,MA100,MA100S,MA100METHOD,MA100PRICE,i)<iMA(_Symbol,PERIOD_M15,MA200,MA200S,MA200METHOD,MA200PRICE,i)) execute whatever u want;
else if(SelectOption==option2)if(iMA(_Symbol,PERIOD_M15,MA100,MA100S,MA100METHOD,MA100PRICE,i)==iMA(_Symb ol,PERIOD_M15,MA200,MA200S,MA200METHOD,MA200PRICE,i)) execute whatever u want;
else if(SelectOption==option3)if(iMA(_Symbol,PERIOD_M15,MA100,MA100S,MA100METHOD,MA100PRICE,i)>iMA(_Symbol ,PERIOD_M15,MA200,MA200S,MA200METHOD,MA200PRICE,i)) execute whatever u want;
Hope this solve your problem.All the best.

Who coded forgot to check OrderSymbol()==Symbol() int the area where he modify the SL TP of active orders ...and is trying to modify it for all your other open charts too ,using the quotes of the symbol where initiated This code seem to be written by a very dumb kid.

Then you are absolutely going to HATE my EA. My entire EA is filled with comments and each line of actual code has 5, 10, 15 ";" i.e. statements and may lines have "}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}" in them LOL

Comments are really to highlight my trading plan which is embedded in the EA itself making it harder for decompiled code to be "readable".
Staying in my lane...

}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}} is part of the code maybe, i was talking about comments not code....hahah, i don't hate nobody but for me a comment need to look like
Inserted Code
// get market names
for(int i=0;i<MAX_CLIENTS;i++)
{
//market1
if(clientsBuff[i].GetBid()!=0 && marketBuff[i].CheckName(marketNameBuff,clientsBuff[i].GetMarket1())==false)
{marketBuff[i].marketName=clientsBuff[i].GetMarket1();marketNameBuff[i]=marketBuff[i].marketName;}
//market2
else if(clientsBuff[i].GetBid()!=0 && marketBuff[i].CheckName(marketNameBuff,clientsBuff[i].GetMarket2())==false)
{marketBuff[i].marketName=clientsBuff[i].GetMarket2();marketNameBuff[i]=marketBuff[i].marketName;}
}
Quoting my software.The working space need to be filled with code not comments.

@VEEFX the volatility moved me from -3.5% to +35% and back to -1% my average position is +15.75% after this wave so my entry are all good ,part of my trading plan,the second wave will push me above 80%.I don't even consider to TP 100 pips..You didn't saw my lots because were private now they are public go check again ,my power entries are all at the top from 0.735 to 0.736 in a 10 pips range, 28 lots at top vs 6 lots at the bottom,adding 6 lots to 28 lots already in big gain ...
My top entries are close one from the other ,is a group there in a 10 pips range...trading at diff prices on the same level is not martingale...i might see an opportunity where u might see a risk.Different perspective.I consider my entire position when trading not individual entries.I responded u in PM too.
