OrderSend() questions
We will, of course, check your case.
But in general the OrderSend function works according to the help.
Возвращаемое значение
In case ofsuccessful basic check of structures (pointer check) it returns true - it does not indicate successful execution of trade operation. To get a more detailed description of the result of the function, we should analyze the fields of the result structure .

No, I'm not complaining, I just want to understand. Maybe I screwed up somewhere else... I also analyzed result structure fields where I thought they should be [as I was taught :)].
But as I understand it, at least it's supposed that pass to next operator should be done only after the terminal completely handles OrderSend() function [including getting and handling fields of result structure]?
(Sorry, in previous question I made a typo: I specified request instead of result)
The first day of the Championship has shown that my Expert Advisor does not work as intended, namely, instead of a single pending order it places several unidirectional pending orders. This is approximately the same structure:
Question: Does the terminal wait for the OrderSend() function from the first block to finish processing [i.e. wait for the request to be received], or does it immediately switch to the next operator (block) after sending a trade request to the server?I confirm the problem. After setting the OrderSend() of a pending order, OrdersTotal does not always see it.
I set a pause after OrderSend(). But it didn't help the robot at the championship today :)

Good afternoon, All.
I'm trying to make a program that would just open an order according to the market. i.e. I send a Symbol, Volume and Order Type there, in a loop until a Position with the direction I want appears.
The log gives out
2012.01.09 16:08:42 Trades '9066293' : failed instant buy 1.00 EURUSD at 0.0000 (deviation: 103117312) [Invalid stops].
So if I open at the market, why do I need to specify the opening price? I don't need any stops.
I would open by F9.
Please, advise me where I screwed up or write some code for opening an order.
I am filling the structure with such a minimum:
uint zOrderSend (string zSymbol, double zVolume, string zORDER_TYPE) { zSymbol = "EURUSD"; zVolume = 1; zORDER_TYPE ="Buy"; Alert ("*****************", zSymbol," ", zVolume," ", zORDER_TYPE); //--- готовим запрос MqlTradeRequest request; request.action=TRADE_ACTION_DEAL; // request.magic=0; request.symbol=zSymbol; // request.volume=zVolume; request.volume=zVolume; // request.price=0; // request.sl=0; // request.tp=0; // request.deviation=SymbolInfoInteger("EURUSD",SYMBOL_SPREAD); // slippage // request.deviation=50; //--- сформируем тип ордера if (zORDER_TYPE == "Buy" ) {request.type = ORDER_TYPE_BUY ;} // тип ордера = 0 if (zORDER_TYPE == "Sell") {request.type = ORDER_TYPE_SELL;} // тип ордера = 1 Alert ("Тип ордера: request.type = ",request.type); request.type_filling = ORDER_FILLING_FOK; request.type_time = ORDER_TIME_GTC; // request.comment = "";The entire Expert Advisor test for opening a position is in the file.

And something gives me = Invalid Stops, while I don't need any Stops for a market order. I do not know where I am going wrong...

Here you go, it should work.

there you go, it should work.
Thank you. It's working. And so fast that it doesn't have time to update the Position information.
As a result, 2 orders are placed.
It can be fixed with a 1 millisecond pause !
if(zOrderSend(_Symbol,0.1,ORDER_TYPE_BUY)==10009) // 10009 TRADE_RETCODE_DONE Заявка выполнена { Sleep (1); Alert("Купили!"); } else Alert("Не купили...."); }
... does not have time to update the position information.
As a result, 2 orders are placed.
This can be solved by pausing for 1 millisecond !
Just keep in mind that pause is not a panacea:
