How to open two indipendent orders?
Change the MagicNumber for each system in OrderSend and then for your counting
what is the logic behind? i want to open multiple "Y" orders like this
X and Y, x closes
X1 and Y
X1 and Y, Y1
and so on
I'd like to try to help you but your question isn't very clear.

Ok i'll try to explain better....
I have an ea, it performs well, but it still have false signals but it's not a problem
For example my signal is buy is buy right ? (X)
if OrderProfit < -25 open hedge order
the hedge order is a sell order (Y) with it's paramaters.
If X closes Y must still open until take profit
and so on X1 Y
X1 Y Y1 etc
is it a little bit more clear?
still no ideas or suggestions? please help! your are the best on the net!!!
You could have a binary variable and reset when the first order closes so when you have an X order and it goes -25 and reset=false you open Y. Then set reset=true until X is gone
Hope it makes sense
thx! at first look it seems it could work it out! i will try tomorrow because today i'm very busy!
but thx anyway!

Hi all again! I'm sorry to hassle you with questions that may stupid, but i need your help!
My problem is that i wanted to add an hedging subsystem in my EA (originally from coderguru),
so here is the point:
I have an order X if X goes under (e.g.) 25 pips i open order Y
so if was only one order "y" it is no problem because i can use a counter like this
//| FUNCTION : NUMBER OF ORDER BASE ON SYMBOL AND MAGIC NUMBER |
//| SOURCE : n/a |
//| MODIFIED : FIREDAVE |
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
int subTotalTrade()
{
int
cnt,
total = 0;
for(cnt=0;cnt<OrdersTotal();cnt++)
{
OrderSelect(cnt,SELECT_BY_POS,MODE_TRADES);
if(OrderType()<=OP_SELL &&
OrderSymbol()==Symbol() &&
OrderMagicNumber()==MagicNumber) total++;
}
return(total);
}
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
//| FUNCTION : OPEN ORDER BASE ON SYMBOL AND MAGIC NUMBER |
//| SOURCE : n/a |
//| MODIFIED : FIREDAVE |
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
string subCheckOpenTrade()
{
int
cnt = 0;
string
lasttrade = "None";
for(cnt=0;cnt<OrdersTotal();cnt++)
{
OrderSelect(cnt,SELECT_BY_POS,MODE_TRADES);
if(OrderType()<=OP_SELL &&
OrderSymbol()==Symbol() &&
OrderMagicNumber()==MagicNumber)
{
if(OrderType()==OP_BUY ) lasttrade = "BUY";
if(OrderType()==OP_SELL) lasttrade = "SELL";
}
}
return(lasttrade);
} [/php]
and then limit to 1 the open order
like this
[php]
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
//| NEW TRADE - ENTRY |
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
if(subTotalTrade()<1 && (BuyCondition || SellCondition ) && AllowEntry)
{
but in this way i can open only one hedging order so what about if
X closes Y still open
X1 goes -25 now i'd like to open Y1 order and i can't!
How can i solve this problem?
