need help with using the sleep function

[sentinelx]

Hello coders,

I need some advice on how to create a 60min gap between my trades only if the last trade ended with my stop loss being activated.

I tried two things, here is the first one................

for (int j=0; j<OrdersTotal(); j++)

{if (OrderSelect(i,SELECT_BY_POS,MODE_TIME)==true)

{if (OrderType()==OP_BUY && OrderClosePrice()<OrderOpenPrice() || OrderType()==OP_SELL && OrderClosePrice()>OrderOpenPrice())

Sleep(3600000); } }

And here is the second thing.................

static int ab = 10000; int ab1; ab1 = AccountBalance(); if (ab1<ab) ab=ab1; Sleep(3600000);

None of the above two pieces of code seem to be having any effect on the function of EA when i backtest it.

If any coder has used similar logic or has some idea on how to do it,( having a set time gap in case of a losing trade) i will really appreciate your help.

Regards, newbie

Try asking if OrderClosePrice==OrderStopLoss.

MODE_TIME This is not a real mode. You really should learn how to code and not guess your way through it.

2. If the order is closed you must look at the history, not open trades. You must refreshRates after sleeping.

   int start(){
       static datetime noOpens; if (TimeCurrent() < noOpens) return;
       for(int iPos=OrdersHistoryTotal()-1; iPos >= 0; iPos--) if (
           OrderSelect(iPos, SELECT_BY_POS, MODE_HISTORY)  // Only orders w/
       &&  OrderMagicNumber()  == magic.number             // my magic number
       &&  OrderSymbol()       == Symbol()                 // and my pair.
       &&  OrderType()         <= OP_SELL // Avoid cr/bal https://www.mql5.com/en/forum/126192
       ){
           if (OrderProfit() < 0){ // No opens for 1 hour
               noOpens = OrderCloseTime() + 3600; return;
           }
       }

3. static int ab = 10000; int ab1; ab1 = AccountBalance(); if (ab1<ab) ab=ab1; Sleep(3600000); 

   The sleep ALWAYS occurs since it isn't attached to the if with brackets.

4. if (OrderSelect(i,SELECT_BY_POS,MODE_TIME)==true)

   You wouldn't ever say if ((x>y) == true) would you? if (x>y) is sufficient. So if (bool == true) is redundant. if (bool)
