Your system sounds a bit crazy......
extern double Lots=0.1;
extern int TP=50;
extern int SL=50;
extern int timeframe=1;
extern bool close=false;
extern int Slippage=2;
extern int Magic=46151;
int init()

return(0);
}

datetime LastTradeTime = 0;
int start()

int time=60*timeframe;
if(LocalTime()-LastTradeTime > time) {
if(close==true) {
if(OrdersTotal()!=0) {
for(int i = 0;i < OrdersTotal();i++){
OrderSelect(i,SELECT_BY_POS,MODE_TRADES);
if(OrderType()==OP_SELL && OrderMagicNumber()==Magic) { OrderClose( OrderTicket(), OrderLots(), MarketInfo(OrderSymbol(), MODE_ASK), Slippage, Green ); }
if(OrderType()==OP_BUY && OrderMagicNumber()==Magic) { OrderClose( OrderTicket(), OrderLots(), MarketInfo(OrderSymbol(), MODE_BID), Slippage, Red ); }
} } }
OrderSend(Symbol(), OP_BUY, Lots, Ask, Slippage, Ask - SL * Point, Ask + TP * Point, NULL, Magic, 0, Green);
OrderSend(Symbol(), OP_SELL, Lots, Bid, Slippage, Bid + SL * Point, Bid - TP * Point, NULL, Magic, 0, Red);
LastTradeTime = LocalTime(); }
return(0);
}If "close" is true, it will close the open orders at the end of the timeframe (in this case 1 minute). SL/TP=100 means 10pips at a 5digit broker.
By the way, I'm not sure if it will open both orders immediately.
Is it possible to close and open (or to open 2 positions) at the same time?
This works fine in backtests of course, but I don't know if it works on a demo/live account.
i've NEVER been able to get that to work with any broker...
i've added delays and confirmation code to check if orders were closed and opened, if not try again.
even then, still not working correctly consistently
This appears to be a problem for many strategies. Is there anyone that found a solution for this problem?
trailing stop issue
I have yen pairs that when I try to use my trailing stop; move my price to "zero" after going in profit. Can anyone tell me why that occurs and how to fix? The trail order works fine on 5 digit currencies.
void TrailOrder(int type)
{
if(TrailingStop>0){
if(OrderMagicNumber() == MagicNumber)
{
if(type==OP_BUY)
{
if(Bid-OrderOpenPrice()>Point*TrailingStop)
{
if(OrderStopLoss()<Bid-Point*TrailingStop)
{
OrderModify(OrderTicket(),OrderOpenPrice(),Bid-(Point*TrailingStop),OrderTakeProfit(),0,Green);
}
}
}
if(type==OP_SELL)
{
if((OrderOpenPrice()-Ask)>(Point*TrailingStop))
{
if((OrderStopLoss()>(Ask+Point*TrailingStop)) || (OrderStopLoss()==0))
{
OrderModify(OrderTicket(),OrderOpenPrice(),Ask+(Point*TrailingStop),OrderTakeProfit(),0,Red);
}
}
}
}
}
}

I think (it's my opinion only) it's because you have a function and this function doesn't know anything about OrderOpenPrice(), OrderStopLoss() etc. You better put this code inside the loop.

Possibly a diligent use of NormalizeDouble(...) would make a difference?

i want help
I will give anything a shot. Its strange because coder guru coded the ea and I modified. I looked through tons' of ea's and can't find anything.
any suggestion on how to write the code after the
void TrailOrder(int type)
calling function?
Maybe take out function completely and use external e trailing ea...argh>!
