Visual Testing of the Profitability of Indicators and Alerts

What indicator of trading alerts or just the methods of their calculating to use is usually decided when testing EAs using these alerts. However, it is not always possible/necessary/reasonable to write an EA for each indicator. You can promptly calculate the profitability of trading on the alerts from other indicators, using a special indicator that collects their alerts itself and draws a picture of ideal trading with them. It can help you both make a visual estimate of the results obtained and quickly choose most optimal parameters.

Do you normalize price?

Hello roger,

what do you mean by "normalize"

is it for example 1.36252525 --> 1.36250000 if that's, I do with a personnal function, maybe it exists one furnish

but i find what doesn't work, it was because I use OP_SELL and not OP_SELLLIMIT :-))

Now, I have another error : 138

2008.12.05 07:39 dev4 EURUSD,M15: OrderClose error 138

means in doc --> REQUOTE !!!

Do you have an idea on this term

thanks

chris

1736	Roger 2009.01.15 00:04 I mean if you don't use Ask and Bid but calculate your price, you have to normalize it: price=NormalizeDouble(price,4); //or 2 if JPY.

thanks Roger

Effectively, I made a function for it; Even I use NormalizeDouble, I always have the same error...

It's only the stop that dosen't work because, when I trap it, the order is send.

Maybe, does the stop must be far from the price?

hi...

i am struggling with the same error ( OrderClose error 138.) i have normalized the price... and i placed a RefreshRates also... plaese if you have some idea how to fix it... thanks.

      if (OrderLots() ==lots)
         {
         if (Ask-OrderOpenPrice() >= 10*Point) 
            {
            RefreshRates();
            OrderClose (OrderTicket(),lots/2,Ask,2,White);
            
            return(0);
            }
         }

3012	Ais 2009.02.23 00:22 Hello friends brspMA: Try to use "OrderClosePrice ()" function instead of "Ask" price in your code sample. Best regards Ais

Hello friends

brspMA:

Try to use "OrderClosePrice ()" function instead of "Ask" price in your code sample.

Best regards

Ais

thank you so much Ais! it worked perfectly fine!

just one question now: all code i've been studying uses Ask price for closing an order... this is the first time i saw the use of "OrderClosePrice ()" in place of Ask... is this a bug of mql4?

thank you so much again, my friend!

3012	Ais 2009.02.23 01:07 This is just a feature.
