Hello, I need help coding a function that calculates the distance in points between (previously opened position - current price)....something like a step for a Grid, thanks

Hey :) Is anybody using the myfxbook sentiment data as a direction filter? I have programmed it as filter (but no long term experience yet) and can share this part for shure ;) Also maybe an intersting thing for a new video @René Balke ?! And more ideas: only trades in positive swap direction (for position trades), and more advanced...scraping the COT report to see what the big players are doing :)

A big thanks to Renè that I got invited into this group. I am working on EAs and Indicators now since 2018 and hope to find people who share the same passion for trading like I do. Currently I am working on a pairs trading system which is using cointegration and other additional methods to find good trading opportunities. It would be great if somebody here in the community has got experience with systems like that. The system is much more complicated than a standard EA which is working on just one Symbol. At the end, it shall scan for setups automatically though all available symbols. I am willing to share the current project with a skilled at that area trader or skilled MT5 coder. To be clear: I am not selling anything to anybody. A cooperative partner is what I am looking for, just because working on something together makes the development phase much more faster and gives more fun to it too. I do speak English and German.

Hi guys, what are favorite symbols for automated trading? It seems that Renè mostly runs his strategies on currency pairs. Even it would be great for my own diversification, but all my strategies do not run so we'll compared to indices. The US100/Nasdaq100 is always outstanding. It would be interesting to know if someone made exactly the opposite experience. I can imagine that all those martingale and grid systems work better with currencies because they are less trending.

My expert is based on breakouts the same strategy as "scalping project" with 4 levels of support and resistance. results are good with only a 40% win rate. The philosophy behind this EA is that one true breakout , one winning trade a day can cover all your losses and make your account grow. Today many losses in gold "high volatility and market range" yesterday it was perfect... I'm looking for suggestions to optimise my EA, any ideas to have good results in the sideways market...
