Dislikedpgd,
Are you using .01 instead of .1 for Lots? Or are you using a mini account? The 100 would not be used then. It would be 10. I'm starting to wonder did I set up the indicators for 5-digit brokers. I normally do put code:
if(Point == 0.01 || Point == 0.0001) Pip = Point;
else if(Point == 0.001 || Point == 0.00001) Pip = Point*10; //Edit: I put Point/10 before, but that was incorrect
And then I use Pip double variable throughout.
But maybe I didn't this time. This is not my normal coding experience for sure. Coding for one pair is much...Ignored
I used the default 0.1 lots (not 0.01). broker quotes 3 decimal prices (for jpy pairs) and 5 decimal for others.
Another Q:
how do u interpret the reading on the indi and convert it to pips made on the basket?
e.g. I measured a particular basket move and found it to read 93.8 against a corresponding move of about 195 pips on eurjpy. I checked several other moves and noted that the figure on the basket move was always smaller than the corresponding pips on the eurjpy whereas a basket should normally bring in several times the pips on just one pair (or why would we be trading the basket). so do I need to multiply the basket figure by 10 to get actual pips made / lost in a move?
cheers,
