There are several bugs i find in your script.

Inserted Code
  if(MessageBox("Do you really want to BUY .10 "+Symbol()+" at ASK price?    ",
                 "Script",MB_YESNO|MB_ICONQUESTION)!=IDYES) return(1);

    RefreshRates();

This will ensure that you have the latest Bid, Ask values.

Secondly, You want to place TakeProfit and StopLoss at 3-5 pips away from the current market price? LOL! Thats another bug. Its darn too near! You should be glad its not working because what you are telling the broker is,

"Open a BUY Position and immediately close it at 3 pips loss!"

GOOD thing its not working, else, just give me the 3 pips instead!

Anyways, I assume that your variable IDYes is valid, otherwise it is another source of screw up.

If you're talking about the compile error that you're receiving, the error is in here:

Quote
extern double Lots = .1;

change it to:

Quote
extern double Lots = 0.1;
Life is a journey... So is trading.

Looks like you are looking for a straddle script for news trading..
you can find one by searching the forum.

but honestly, I dont recommend doing this for news trading. unless you are a total newbie who have money to willingly waste
