Modifying OP_BUYSTOP / OP_SELLSTOP price

How to modify OP_BUYSTOP current price / position???

For me OrderModify is not working, don't know why... Maybe doing wrong

And on each tick deleting and creating new ticket is not very smart and cool :D 

  
   if(BSTicket != 0 && Ask < PrevAsk)
   {
      BSPrice = Ask + BuyRecoil;
      OrderDelete(BSTicket);
      BSTicket = CreateTicket(OP_BUYSTOP, BSPrice, 0, Blue);
   }

So yeah, how can I use here OrderModify, for not to each time re-create ticket?

P.S. BS means BuyStop

  1. Play video    		Please edit your post.
    For large amounts of code, attach it.
  2. OrderModify.
  3. no maybe about it. What are Function return values ? How do I use them ? - MQL4 forum Find out why and post your code.
  4. Stops and Limits are useful for humans as they can't watch the market continuously. Unnecessary for EA as you can simply wait for market to reach your trigger and then open the order.

if you wait for market to reach your trigger and then open the order and market is trading that moment fast great volality 

then pending trades opens more easily then your market trade that can miss that time your trigger easily

 

A pending order becomes a market order. EXACTLY the same as if you opened at the trigger. The ONLY difference is the network delay between the server to the EA and back.

That fraction of a second should be irrelevant. If that is important to you, good luck beating the spread.

Perhaps you should show your OrderModify() code and any code relevant to the OrderModify() such as your OrderSelect(), etc.

It is not for beating the Spread it is more for dealing the requote if the internet you are using is not the fastest
