I have extracted the files from ZorroMT4.zip into the corresponding directories of the MT4 installation. As I have build 625 I have put Zorro.mq4 into AppData/Roaming/MetaQuotes/Terminal/<MT4ID>/MQL4/Experts end the library files ZorroMT4.ex4 and ZorroMT4.dll into AppData/Roaming/MetaQuotes/Terminal/<MT4ID>/MQL4/Libraries. I even placed the files into the old MT4 folder structure for the case Zorro would need them updated there too. When I start MT4 and attach the Zorro EA to the chart it shows the message "Controlled by Zorro Bridge 1.3". Then I start the Zorro client and when I click on "Trade" it shows following messages: Z1(oP group).. Login MT4 (Demo only).. Broker: Can't open MT4 bridge! Check Zorro EA and account number 1405137 Can't connect! The account number is correct and I don't have any idea why it doesn't connect to the EA.

As I have only just gone live with this new version of Zorro, cannot be sure it is related to the new version. Was thinking of trying different strategies to test it more thoroughly, but not quite there yet.

Hi jcl. I was fooling with the ReverseAtStop script with different Assets and BarPeriods and got what looks a bit like a bug - please run this with XAU/USD and look at 2013-04-15. Is it correct? Other BarPeriods & Assets don't do this... Thanks.

Code:

// TMF that opens an opposite trade when stopped out,
// and opens a new trade when profit target is reached (Zorro 1.22 and above)
int ReverseAtStop()
{
	printf("#\nTick-price=%.8f",priceClose());
  if(TradeIsStop) { // stop loss hit?
    if(TradeIsShort)
      enterLong(ReverseAtStop); // enter opposite trade
    else 
      enterShort(ReverseAtStop);
  }
  if(TradeIsProfit) { // profit target hit?
    if(TradeIsShort)
      enterShort(ReverseAtStop); // enter same trade again
    else 
      enterLong(ReverseAtStop);
  }
// call the TMF at stop loss / profit target only  
  return 16;
}

function run()
{
	set(LOGFILE);
	set(PLOTNOW);
  set(TICKS);  // normally needed for TMF
  Weekend = 3; // don't run TMF at weekend
	BarPeriod	= 1440;
  Stop = 10000*PIP;
  TakeProfit = 10000*PIP;
  if(Bar == LookBack) // enter the first trade directly at the first bar
    enterLong(ReverseAtStop);
}

For instance, maybe your MT4 thinks that your account is a real account, not a demo account. The remarks cover all known issues of the different MT4 versions. DdlV: Thanks, I'll check your script.

For example, if bar 72 opens both a Long and a Short, the Long is shown as opening on bar 73, which I understand from prior threads is correct, but the Short is shown opening on bar 72, which is incorrect, isn't it? Thanks.
