  Hi!

  Just starting out with some coding in prt.

  I also use MT4 and would greatly appreciate if someone could

  help me how this would translate in mt4 (mql).

  I use it when i backtest trend indicators performance.

   

  DEFPARAM CumulateOrders = False
  Indicator1 = CCI[20](typicalPrice)
  ATR = AverageTrueRange[20](close)
  BuyOrder = (Indicator1 CROSSES OVER 0)
  IF BuyOrder THEN
  BUY 1 CONTRACT AT MARKET
  SL = ATR *1
  TP = ATR *2
  ENDIF
  SellOrder = (Indicator1 CROSSES UNDER 0)
  IF SellOrder THEN
  SellShort 1 CONTRACT AT MARKET
  SL = ATR *1
  TP = ATR *2
  ENDIF
  SET STOP LOSS SL
  SET TARGET PROFIT TP

  Sorry, but this forum only supports the ProRealTime trading platform.

  It is possible to convert code from other platforms to ProRealTime, not the other way round.

  I think you can find MT4 forums over the internet to achieve your goal.
