Could someone take a quick look at this code ?

   Hi,
What i'm trying to do here is to open or close an order if a signal is received where am i wrong? the ea wont place any orders, even when the signal is received.
Thank you in advance for your time =]



 TOrders=OrdersTotal();
      if (TOrders <= 5 && ((Hour()>=FromHourTrade && Hour()<=ToHourTrade) || !UseHourTrade))
       {
        double SL,TP;
        int total,ord,t;
      //Verifying if an order for this symbol is already open
        for(t=0; t<total ;t++)
         
         {
         OrderSelect(t,SELECT_BY_POS);
         if(OrderSymbol() == Symbol())ord++;
           {    
            if(ord>0) return (0); //Abort! A Position For This Pair is Already Open
            // Compare current Signals to go long
           if (stc_o == OPEN_BUY && lsr_o == OPEN_BUY)
             {
              Print ("---Creating BUY Order---");
              if (Takeprofit!=0) TP  = NormalizeDouble(Ask + Takeprofit*Point,Digits); else TP=0;
              if (Stoploss!=0)   SL  = NormalizeDouble(Bid - Stoploss*Point,Digits); else SL=0;     
              OPENORDER (1,SL,TP);
              Print("+++Debug BUY Order+++");
               if(ECNmode)
                 {
                   SetStop();
                 }
               if(Ticket>0)
                 {
                   if(OrderSelect(Ticket,SELECT_BY_TICKET,MODE_TRADES))
                   {
                      Print("---BUY Order Opened : ",Symbol(),OrderOpenPrice());
                   }
              }
           }
      
         // Compare current signals to go short
         else if (stc_o == OPEN_SELL && lsr_o == OPEN_SELL)
         {
            Print ("---Creating SELL order---");
            if (Takeprofit!=0) TP = NormalizeDouble(Bid - Takeprofit*Point,Digits); else TP=0;
            if (Stoploss!=0)   SL = NormalizeDouble(Ask + Stoploss*Point,Digits);  else SL=0;              
            OPENORDER (-1,SL,TP);
            Print("+++Debug BUY Order+++");
              if(ECNmode)
                 {
                    SetStop();
                 }
              if(Ticket>0)
                 {
                 if(OrderSelect(Ticket,SELECT_BY_TICKET,MODE_TRADES))
                    {
                       Print("---SELL order opened : ",Symbol(),OrderOpenPrice());
                    }
                 }
            else
            {
               Print("Error opening SELL order : ",Symbol(),GetLastError()); 
            }
         }
      } // end else totalorders > 0
   } // End if dumb trade rules
//} //end 
  
 

Re-paste the code using the method below. Otherwise makes it harder to read without the indentations.

Plus where's your start() and ordersend(). Paste the entire code or attach the file.

// Time to Open Positions!!

TOrders=OrdersTotal();

if (TOrders != 5 && ((Hour()>=FromHourTrade && Hour()<=ToHourTrade) || !UseHourTrade))

double SL,TP;

int total,ord,t;

//Verifying if an order for this symbol is already open

for(t=0; t<total ;t++)


{

OrderSelect(t,SELECT_BY_POS);

Better to read if you use 'SRC' button

 
Why only working when 
TOrders=OrdersTotal();

if (TOrders != 5 &&

OrdersTotal not equal to 5... What if it is 5 ??? What is then your situation ??

if(OrderSymbol() == Symbol())ord++;

{ 

if(ord>0) return (0); //Abort! A Position For This Pair is Already Open

So you can't have other EA's or you can't open yourself manual trades same symbol or it will fail... working

Also some things we can't see how it gets its value... stc_o lsr_o OPENORDER (1,SL,TP); SetStop();

TP = NormalizeDouble(Ask + Takeprofit*Point,Digits)

This is not made to trade 4 and 5 digit proof if takeprofit is 40 it is 40 pips on 4 digit notation but 4 pips at 5 digit notation

 
Those plus
for(t=0; t<total ;t++)
{
OrderSelect(t,SELECT_BY_POS);
Not checking return codes. If the OrderSelect fails than so does the rest of the code.
int count=0;
    for(int iPos = OrdersTotal()-1; iPos >= 0 ; iPos--) if (
        OrderSelect(iPos, SELECT_BY_POS)                    // Only my orders w/
    &&  OrderMagicNumber()  == Magic.Number                 // my magic number
    &&  OrderSymbol()       == chart.symbol                 // and my pair.
    ){  count++; }
if (count != 5 ...
  
double SL,TP;

int total,ord,t;      //total =   ?????

//Verifying if an order for this symbol is already open

for(t=0; t<total ;t++)  //t<total   ????



WHroeder has shows right how to check your OrdersTotal() counting downwards this is the best way to use

counting up will fail if you trie in the loop also to close trades.. but check your code what is the value of total in your loop ??
