When opening a new bar, the EA analyzes the value of the previous four bars:
if(iHigh(1)>iHigh(2) && iHigh(2)>iHigh(3) &&
iHigh(3)>iHigh(4) && iOpen(1)>iOpen(2) &&
iOpen(2)>iOpen(3) && iOpen(3)>iOpen(4))
BuyOp=true;
if(iHigh(1)<iHigh(2) && iHigh(2)<iHigh(3) &&
iHigh(3)<iHigh(4) && iOpen(1)<iOpen(2) &&
iOpen(2)<iOpen(3) && iOpen(3)<iOpen(4))
SellOp=true;
iHigh(3)>iHigh(4) && iOpen(1)>iOpen(2) &&
iOpen(2)>iOpen(3) && iOpen(3)>iOpen(4))
BuyOp=true;
if(iHigh(1)<iHigh(2) && iHigh(2)<iHigh(3) &&
iHigh(3)<iHigh(4) && iOpen(1)<iOpen(2) &&
iOpen(2)<iOpen(3) && iOpen(3)<iOpen(4))
SellOp=true;
When we have an open position, then the "HalfLots" variable value is checked in the
void TrailingStairs(ulong m_ticket,ushort trldistance)
trailing block. In other words, the system checks if it is possible to partially close a profitable position. If "HalfLots==true", the position is closed partially:
m_trade_partial.PositionClose(m_position.Ticket(),-1,half_volume);
