please help for simple coding

[ramzi]

hi im a beginner and im trying to build a very simple EA just to understand how it works first.

Can anybody help me by giving some simple example of a code for

1. Alert when it hits take profit

2.Alert when it hits stop loss

my scenario is this:- after i execute lets say Order buy function, it sets the take profit to 20 pips and stop loss also to 20 pips.

now, i just need an example of a code to alert when it hits the take profit or stop loss. just a simple example. or maybe a variety way of writing this code i would appreciate it.

thanks :)

If the orderselect loop doesn't find the order - it has closed.

Find the latest order closed in history. Check if OrderClosePrice is closest to TP or SL.

if OrdersTotal has become smaller you can check the history trades with orderselect loop.......

or if OrdersHistoryTotal has become more you check history trades with ......
