EA programming for Metatrader4 Help needed

I've been a long time reader of this forum, and now seeking some wisdom

We are developing our own EA, and are having trouble finding/creating a code for "market execution", as opposed to "instant execution".

I'm wondering if anyone has any script, or knows where we can find guidance on script, code, etc to make our EA "market execution"?

I'm not the programmer...my Son (a geek and proud of it is doing that. I'm the analyst and provide the inputs needed etc. What we are doing comes up excellent on back testing etc, but is no good if it won't activate!

So, thought I'd just put an SOS out there...thanks in advance

What exactly is the difference between market and instant execution?

As I understand it the difference is that with market execution, my trade is executed by my broker's system, and not directly into the market by my EA. I suspect this is to stop scalping type trading, even though they say they are OK with scalping.

It does not matter too much, as our EA is not intended to scalp.

Hope that helps
