Speed up multi orders at the same time/symbol

[BurkhardWille]

Hi,

how can I speed up multi order to get most orders in a short period?

I wrote the function below to open 10 positions:

  int i = 0;
  while(i < 10) {
    int ticket = 0, lastError = 0, n = 0;
    while(true) {
      ticket    = OrderSend(Symbol(), OP_BUY, 0.1, Ask, 30, 0, 0, "", 300, 0, Blue);
      lastError = GetLastError();

      if (lastError == 0) {break;}
      else {
        RefreshRates();

        n++;
        if(n>15) {
          break;
        }
      }
    }

    i++;
  }

But between the first to the last order are mostly at least 4-5 seconds or above. :-X

Why can't MetaTrader fill all orders at the same time?

Is there a better way to open 10 or more positions at the same time?

Regards

Impossible to open 2 trades at exactly the same time
if it fails how do you know why it fails ??

I can't see you print that info ....

So what are the errors when it fails ???

what about to open 1 X 1.0 instead of 10 X 0.1 ?

sure, not at the same time, but perhaps as close together as possible.

In the picture above, you can see, that 2 to 3 orders can handle in one second.

"Errors" I can show me with print [Print(lastError) or Print(n)] in the else-block, where the RefreshRates-funtion is. There are not realy errors, with RefreshRates I can handle this, but it takes to long time, I think.

See, if I trade 1 x 200 Lots (20.000.000) with only one trade, the spread of 0.3 Pips (EURUSD) is extended to 0.7 or higher, so if I split my order to maybe 20 x 10 Lots I can keep my 0.3 spread...

If you want speed up then don't ignore the result you get with GetLastError()....

handle according the kind of error you get see
