what wrong with trailing stop
 
phipho:
what wrong with trailing stop

Why do this,  your function is type void so it does not return a value . . .

if(iTrailingStop < 1)return(-1); // error

 

Why check this here ?  why not check before you call the function . . .

if(iTrailingStop > 0) TrailingStop( OrdersTotal() );

 

How can this be possible for a BUYSTOP ?

if( Bid - OrderOpenPrice() > Point * iTrailingStop )

 Have you ever read and understood this ?  : Requirements and Limitations in Making Trades

 

Your  pending Stop trades has become Buy or Sell

the moment 

           case OP_BUYSTOP: 

               if Ask-OrderOpenPrice()>= 0   it will become a Buy trade

            case OP_SELLSTOP:

               if OrderOpenPrice() - Bid  >= 0   it will become a Sell trade

price this moment 1.50000

you place a new buystop  orderopenprice  =Ask+BuyStop*Point;    SL=orderopenprice-iStopLoss*Point     TP=orderopenprice+iTakeProfit*Point

if(Bid-OrderOpenPrice()>Point*iTrailingStop)

 means price above orderopenprice

 if that happens you haven't a buystop trade it has become a buy trade !!!!
