cAlgo_Fanatic said: hello i have a problem using this cbot in my sample code cbot it doesnt allow me to build the bot and shows this problem Error CS1501: Ninguna sobrecarga para el método 'ExecuteMarketOrder' toma '5' argumentos id appreciate your help

// -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
//
//    The "SampleTrailingbyLabel" cBot will trail an open position given the position Label. 
//    The user can set the variable "Trigger (pips)" 
//    which defines the point where the Stop Loss will start 
//    trailing the order. When the profit in pips is above or equal to "Trigger (pips)" 
//    the stop loss will start trailing the spot price.
//    Variable "Trailing Stop (pips)" defines the number of pips the Stop Loss trails the spot price by.

Dear Trader,

We recompiled the example and we do not get any compilation errors. Could you please provide more details regarding the issue?

the Sample is not totally good written due to the fact that the boolean IsTriggered Works Only once, in the login information you can see that if the trailling stop is activated more than once the Boolean _Istrigerred Only shows the Print information the first time because there is not code to make it go back to the state false;

Dear Trader,

You are right. The example is activating only one trailing stop for one specific open position. However you can it as example to enhance your cBot.
