The Prompt
Enhance an Expert Advisor (EA) by adding additional stoploss configuration options.
Specifically, implement two functions to define the stoploss:
– Average SL (in USD):
– Calculates the average stoploss value in US dollars.
– Average SL (in Pips):
– Calculates the average stoploss value in pips.
Additionally, introduce a **Stoploss Profit Mode** configuration parameter that allows the user to choose between these two modes:
– USD mode:
– Uses Average SL (in USD) for stoploss.
– Pips mode:
– Uses Average SL (in Pips) for stoploss.
Ensure that the EA integrates these functions accurately, and that the mode selection dynamically affects the stoploss calculation during trading operations.
# Steps
1. Implement the function to compute Average SL in USD, considering executed trades or configured parameters.
2. Implement the function to compute Average SL in Pips.
3. Add a configurable input parameter named “Stoploss Profit Mode” with two options: “USD” and “Pips”.
4. Modify the stoploss logic to utilize the corresponding average value based on the selected mode.
5. Test the implementation to confirm correct stoploss behavior for both modes.
# Output Format
Provide the following:
– Code snippets or functions implemented.
– Changes to the EA input parameters.
– Main trading logic related to stoploss calculation.
Include any relevant explanations or comments within the code to clarify logic and usage.
