Hi Forexflash,
and thank you for your quick answer!

OK I try to explain it.
The EA should become only active if one of me given price is reached.

For example:
Today EUR/USD is 1.3000 but I want that hi go only activ when the price is maybe 1.2000 or 1.4000

Is it possible?
Thank you, and sorry for my bad english.

Regards
Wailer

Sorry I know my english...

I want this EA it is only switched on when one by me given price is reached.

So for example when the price is now for EUR/USD 1.3000 than he sould do nothing because I want that he only switcht on when the price is maybe above 1.4000 or below 1.2000

Sorry again, hope you anderstand what I mean.

English isn't my native language but even I don't quite understand what you're asking. Not due to your poor english but due to lack of information. you need to be precise in your requirements else no one can help you. programmers deal with definites and logic... not guesses...

so you want to trade only when the price at the point of signal is above a certain price or below another price? What do you do if it's above? open buy only? what about below? open sell only?

Try this....I didnt tested it, but it should work.......

I added 2 external variables:

extern double TradeFromPrice = 1.3;
extern double TradeToPrice = 1.4;

So this should trade only range between 1,3000 to 1,4000

Thank you for help Zen.

I want only in the EA a LimitBuy or LimtSell Pendingorder enter. So when the price is at the point that I enter then the EA switcht on and go long or short thats all.

I think Wailer is after the same thing as me. I have been trying for weeks to recode FB to open a Buy Limit/Sell Limit Pending Order instead of an Instant Order. The idea is that if the market doesn't come back after a breakout the orders don't get filled. This should also allow FB to work on FIFO basis, though I'd need to test it first.

Just changing the order type hasn't worked, neither has adding a level parameter, and being a novice to coding I'm not sure what else to change.

I'm using FB v2.

Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.

A special thanks to all the people who have invested time into creating Firebird.
