Parameter Validation ```mql5 if(slippage_points < 0) { Print("[ERROR] Invalid slippage points: ", slippage_points, ". Using default 30"); m_slippage_points = 30; } ``` ### 2. Debug Logging ```mql5 [TradeExecutor] Executing trade... Direction: BUY Lots: 0.03 SL: 1.2480 TP count: 3 Comment: UnivBufEA_24680;TP1=1.2530;TP2=1.2560;TP3=1.2600;BE=0;TS=0 Execution price: 1.2500 ``` ### 3. Error Handling ```mql5 [ERROR] Invalid lots: 0.00 [ERROR] OrderSend failed: Invalid volume (Code: 4756) [ERROR] Failed to save screenshot. Error: File not found (Code: 5004) ``` --- ## 📝 Logging Examples ### Initialization ``` [TradeExecutor] Parameters set: Slippage: 30 points Magic number: 24680 Symbol: XAUUSD Digits: 2 Take screenshot: true Chart ID: 1319423456789 Indicator: My_Indicator ``` ### Trade Execution ``` [TradeExecutor] Executing trade... Direction: BUY Lots: 0.03 SL: 1.2480 TP count: 3 Comment: UnivBufEA_24680;TP1=1.2530;TP2=1.2560;TP3=1.2600;BE=0;TS=0 Execution price: 1.2500 [TradeExecutor] Order opened successfully. Ticket: 12345 [TradeExecutor] Taking screenshot: XAUUSD_T12345_2025.01.18_14_30_15.gif (1920x1080) [TradeExecutor] Screenshot saved: XAUUSD_T12345_2025.01.18_14_30_15.gif ``` ### Partial Close ``` [TradeExecutor] Executing partial close... Ticket: 12345 Close lots: 0.33 TP index: 0 [TradeExecutor] Partial close executed: 0.33 lots at TP1 for ticket #12345 ``` ### Close Opposite Trade ``` [TradeExecutor] Closing opposite trades for BUY signal [TradeExecutor] Found opposite trade #12344 (0.05 lots) [TradeExecutor] Closed opposite trade Ticket#12344 due to new signal. ``` ### Error Handling ``` [ERROR] Invalid lots: 0.00 [ERROR] Invalid ticket: 0 [ERROR] Failed to select position #12345 [ERROR] Chart ID is 0, cannot take screenshot [ERROR] Invalid chart dimensions: 0x0 ``` --- ## 🐛 Edge Cases Handled 1. ✅ Invalid slippage (< 0) 2. ✅ Invalid magic number (<= 0) 3. ✅ Empty symbol 4. ✅ Invalid digits (<= 0) 5. ✅ Invalid lots (<= 0) 6. ✅ Invalid ticket (0) 7. ✅ Position not found 8. ✅ Close lots > current lots 9. ✅ Chart ID = 0 10. ✅ Invalid chart dimensions 11. ✅ Order execution failure 12. ✅ Screenshot failure --- ## 📋 Order Comment Format ``` UnivBufEA_24680;TP1=1.2530;TP2=1.2560;TP3=1.2600;BE=0;TS=0 ``` ### Comment Components - `UnivBufEA_24680`: EA identifier + magic number - `TP1`, `TP2`, `TP3`: Take profit levels - `BE=0`: Breakeven not yet activated - `BE=1`: Breakeven activated - `TS=0`: Trailing not active - `TS=ACTIVE`: Trailing active ### Comment Length - Maximum 31 characters for some brokers - Automatically truncated if too long --- ## 🚀 Next Steps: Phase 8 ### What's Next? Phase 8 will implement **State Manager** functionality: 1. ✅ Enhanced state persistence 2. ✅ Global variable management 3. ✅ Error handling 4. ✅ Debug logging 5. ✅ Integration with main EA 6. ✅ Testing state management logic **Estimated time:** ~15-20 minutes --- ## 📋 Testing Checklist Before moving to Phase 8, verify: - [ ] TradeExecutor compiles without errors - [ ] Debug mode works correctly - [ ] Parameter validation works - [ ] Order execution works correctly - [ ] Partial close works correctly - [ ] Screenshot functionality works - [ ] All edge cases are covered --- ## 💡 Notes 1. **Debug Mode**: Controlled by `EnableDebugPrints` input parameter 2. **Error Codes**: All errors include error code and description 3. **Validation**: All inputs validated before execution 4. **Logging Format**: Consistent `[TradeExecutor]` prefix for easy filtering 5. **Screenshot**: Only taken if `TakeScreenshotOnOpen = true` --- ## 🔧 Usage Examples ### Basic Usage ```mql5 // Execute trade CTradeExecutor::TradeResult result = g_trade_executor.ExecuteTrade( true, // is_buy 0.03, // lots 1.2500, // open_price 1.2480, // sl_price tp_prices, // tp_prices array 3 // tp_count ); ``` ### Debug Mode ```mql5 // Enable debug logging g_trade_executor.SetDebugMode(true); // Execute trade (will log details) CTradeExecutor::TradeResult result = g_trade_executor.ExecuteTrade(...); ``` ### Check Trade Status ```mql5 // Check if trade is open if(g_trade_executor.IsTradeOpen()) { Print("Trade is already open"); } ``` --- **Phase 7 Status: ✅ COMPLETE** Ready to proceed with Phase 8: State Manager Implementation
