hello ;

 

i am here provided with a small part of my strategy...

if buy takes profit next will be a buy but if it ends in stop loss ordertype will change from 0 to 1...same case for sell..each time it inccurs a loss ordertype will negate....source:-

#include <stdlib.mqh>
int sl=8,ab,ticket1,ticket2,tp;
double abc;
bool fot=0,pot=0,flag=0;

int start()
  {
  if(OrdersTotal()>0)
  {
  OrderSelect(0,SELECT_BY_POS);
  abc=OrderTakeProfit();
  ab=OrderStopLoss();
  tp=OrderType();
  if(tp==0)
  {
  if(CompareDoubles(Bid,abc))
  flag=1;
  }
  if(tp==1)
  {
  if(CompareDoubles(Ask,abc))
  flag=1;
  }
  }
  
  if(OrdersTotal()==0)
  {
  if (flag!=1)
  pot=(!fot);
  if(pot==0)
  ticket1=OrderSend(Symbol(),pot,0.01,Ask,3,Ask-sl*Point,Ask+sl*Point,0,0,0);
  if(pot==1)
  ticket2=OrderSend(Symbol(),pot,0.01,Bid,3,Bid+sl*Point,Bid-sl*Point,0,0,0);
  flag=0;
  }

as a sl occurs it should reverse its direction but not happening...anybody with suggestions

Are you trying to confuse yourself ?

 

bool   true  or  false 

int      0 or 1

 

why make your code harder to read by mixing bools with ints ?  OrderSend() requires a int for the order type,  read the documentation and see for yourself.

I would think you meant to check the most recent order in history rather than a currently open trade. If an order has hit TP or SL it will always be in the history. Once selected from history, you could determine profit/loss status by checking OrderProfit() and then updating your flag to trade according to your rules when you open the next trade.

No you haven't,  you still have 

 

bool fot=0,pot=0,flag=0;

//  and

  if (flag!=1)
  pot=(!fot);
  if(pot==0)

 and now you are using  0  and 1 for Order Types,  why not use OP_BUY and OP_SELL ?
