Code not working

New comment
 

Can someone help me? The following code is a script that when I run, should place 2, at market price orders for 2 different currency pairs.

But... It asks me if I want to proceed, but when I click the Yes, it does nothing.

If I have the EURUSD chart open, sometimes it places that side of the trade only.

Any help would be appreciated.

if(MessageBox("Do you really want to BUY and Sell 1.00 Lot EURUSD & EURJPY at current prices? ", //stops accidental order placement

"Script",MB_YESNO|MB_ICONQUESTION)!=IDYES) return(1);

{

OrderSend("EURUSD", OP_BUY, lots,Ask, 3, 0, "Hedge Order",IDENT, MAGIC, 0, Blue);

OrderSend("EURJPY", OP_SELL, lots,Bid, 3, 0, "Hedge Order",IDENT, MAGIC, 0, Red);

}

return(0);

}

If you run the script on the eurusd chart, both Ask and Bid are values from that chart. In order to place a trade for other currency, replace

Bid with MarketInfo("EURJPY",MODE_BID)


Regards.

 

Thanks... it is working like a charm now... and I learned something! I even Changed the Ask for EURUSD.

Now I can be in either chart.
