xanderhinds: . it works for OrderModify OP=BUY but not for OP=SELL, I think I'm just missing something simple but cant seem to grasp what it is..
if ((Ask - OrderOpenPrice())> (BESLPROFIT*Point) && (TimeCurrent()- OrderOpenTime()) > SLDuration) | If your sell order is in profit, the Ask will be below the OOP. |

Hi, I've been woring on an ea with a SL function that is set after a period of time has elapsed AND an amount of pips profit it cleared.. it works for OrderModify OP=BUY but not for OP=SELL, I think I'm just missing something simple but cant seem to grasp what it is.. anyhow, here's the code;
else if((Bid - OrderOpenPrice())> (BESLPROFIT*Point) && (TimeCurrent()- OrderOpenTime()) > SLDuration)
{
if (OrderModify(OrderTicket(),OrderOpenPrice(),(OrderOpenPrice()+(BESL*Point)),OrderTakeProfit(),0,Green)== true)
{
OMNB5--;
continue;
}
else
{
Alert ("Problem whilst moving SL to BE");
return(0);
}
}
else
{
Alert ("Insufficent time elapsed to move SL B5");
continue;
}
// above is the order modify for BUY
// below is for SELL
if ((Ask - OrderOpenPrice())> (BESLPROFIT*Point) && (TimeCurrent()- OrderOpenTime()) > SLDuration)
{
if (OrderModify(OrderTicket(),OrderOpenPrice(),(OrderOpenPrice()-(BESL*Point)),OrderTakeProfit(),0,Blue)== true)
{
OMNS5--;
continue;
}
else
{
Alert ("Problem whilst moving SL to BE");
return(0);
}
}
else
{
Alert ("Insufficent time elapsed to move SL");
continue;
}
