    Exclamation ODL: 5 Decimal instead of 4, Difference using EA

    Hi,

    I've completed some tests about some EA's. And I'm looking for open an account with odl using EA.
    Today odl says me that if I want to use EA, I have to use Meta trader pro that have variables spreds and 5 decimal instad of 4. (ex. 1.4152 -> 1.41525)

    Have I to modify something about the code of each EA's with prices having 5 decimals? ....because It appears that Ea's don't work like before.

    Have you experience in this regard?

    Thanks a lot at all

    Hi 823,

    You just need to multiply SL, TP, BE and TS by 10.

    No, it should be enough.

    BE means Break Even,

    Otherwise, you can find a guide here about how to convert an EA for a 5 digits broker :
