I am writing an EA that opens and closes trades at a specific time, but if there is no tick data for a few minutes then the trade time comes and goes and I miss the trade? Is besides writing a trade time window, is there a way around this? Perhaps someone else has already written an EA like this I can use as a template.. Thanks in Advance David |

Put the EA n a loop, and it is no longer dependent upon ticks (after it gets the first one to start). Use TimeLocal() inside the loop for timing. while (IsStopped() == false){ ... your code Sleep(1000); } return(0); } |

OH.. one other question.. Why do you suggest I use time local? Does this mean I
need to also check local time for placing the orders?
thanks d |
