Need Help with setting take profit (code)

New comment
 

Hey there everyone!


It's been almost a year since I posted needing help. I've been able to figure everything out thus far. However- This time I've been stumped on what to do.



 for(cnt = OrdersTotal(); cnt >= 0; cnt--)
     {
      OrderSelect(cnt, SELECT_BY_POS, MODE_TRADES);
         mode = OrderType();
        if(OrderSymbol() == Symbol())
          {
           if(mode == OP_BUY)
            {
             MyTakeProfit = OrderOpenPrice() + (TakeProfit*Point);
 
             MyStopLoss = OrderOpenPrice() - (TakeProfit*Point);
 
             Print("MyTakeProfit=",MyTakeProfit);
 
            }
          }
 
      }
 
 
 
 
 
if(MyTakeProfit == Bid) 
 {
  Print("Take Profit Level Reached");
  if(Teir1 == true)
   {
   for(cnt = OrdersTotal(); cnt >= 0; cnt--)
     {
    OrderSelect(cnt, SELECT_BY_POS, MODE_TRADES);
     if(OrderSymbol() == Symbol())
       {
        if(mode == OP_BUY)
         {
         OrderClose(OrderTicket(), OrderLots(), OrderClosePrice(), Slippage, Blue);
         Teir1 = false;
         Teir2 = true;
          }
       }
      }
     }
  }
The problem is, is that the second block of code does not close the order like it should. I placed the Print functions within the two blocks to troubleshoot. It does Print the "MyTakeProfit" Correctly at the price it should, however- It doesn't print the "Take Profit Level Has Been Reached". It's like the Price never actually reached the Bid Price. When I tested it thought- The first order it places should meet the take profit level, and closed easily. Either way- the stop loss block of code is written almost the same exact way, and it doesn't work either.


Am I coding this wrong for some reason?



Thanks in advance,


Jacob
