Ok, spreads kill some pairs. but is theire away to place trades in the middle of a spreads. This way we can save pips and make more money. i have this code and can it be changed to modify the order to chart price not bid ask?
void PlaceBuyOrder()
{
double BuyOrders, Lots;
double LowestBuy = 1000, HighestBuy;
if (BarTime != Time[0])
{
BarTime = Time[0];
TickPrice = 0;
TradeAllowed = true;
}
RefreshRates();
for (Order = OrdersTotal() - 1; Order >= 0; Order--)
{
if (OrderSelect(Order, SELECT_BY_POS, MODE_TRADES))
{
if (OrderSymbol() == Symbol() && OrderMagicNumber() == Reference && OrderType() == OP_BUY)
{
if (OrderOpenPrice() < LowestBuy) LowestBuy = OrderOpenPrice();
if (OrderOpenPrice() > HighestBuy) HighestBuy = OrderOpenPrice();
BuyOrders++;
}
}
}
if (TradeAllowed)
{
if (Ask >= HighestBuy + (TrendSpacing * Point))
{
// if (Multiplier)
if (Multiplier == 1)
Lots = NormalizeDouble(LotSize * MathPow(LotIncrement, BuyOrders), 2);
else
Lots = NormalizeDouble(LotSize + (LotIncrement * BuyOrders), 2);
}
if (Ask <= LowestBuy - (Spacing * Point))
{
// if (Multiplier)
if (Multiplier == 1)
Lots = NormalizeDouble(LotSize * CounterTrendMultiplier * MathPow(LotIncrement, BuyOrders), 2);
else
Lots = NormalizeDouble((LotSize * CounterTrendMultiplier) + (LotIncrement * BuyOrders), 2);
}
if (Lots == 0)
{
// if (Multiplier)
if (Multiplier == 1)
Lots = NormalizeDouble(LotSize, 2);
else
Lots = NormalizeDouble(LotSize, 2);
}
OrderSend(Symbol(), OP_BUY, Lots, Ask, Slippage, 0, 0, TradeComment, Reference, Green);
Error = GetLastError();
if (Error != 0)
Write("Error opening BUY order: " + ErrorDescription(Error) + " (C" + Error + ") Ask:" + Ask + " Slippage:" + Slippage);
else
{
TickPrice = Close[0];
TradeAllowed = false;
}
}
}
void PlaceSellOrder()
{
double SellOrders, Lots;
double HighestSell, LowestSell = 1000;
if (BarTime != Time[0])
{
BarTime = Time[0];
TickPrice = 0;
TradeAllowed = true;
}
RefreshRates();
for (Order = OrdersTotal() - 1; Order >= 0; Order--)
{
if (OrderSelect(Order, SELECT_BY_POS, MODE_TRADES))

if (OrderOpenPrice() < LowestSell) LowestSell = OrderOpenPrice();
SellOrders++;
}
}
}
if (TradeAllowed)
{
if (Bid <= LowestSell - (TrendSpacing * Point))
{
// if (Multiplier)
if (Multiplier == 1)
Lots = NormalizeDouble(LotSize * MathPow(LotIncrement, SellOrders), 2);
else
Lots = NormalizeDouble(LotSize + (LotIncrement * SellOrders), 2);
}
if (Bid >= HighestSell + (Spacing * Point))
{
// if (Multiplier)
if (Multiplier == 1)
Lots = NormalizeDouble(LotSize * CounterTrendMultiplier * MathPow(LotIncrement, SellOrders), 2);
else
Lots = NormalizeDouble((LotSize * CounterTrendMultiplier) + (LotIncrement * SellOrders), 2);
}
if (Lots == 0)
{
// if (Multiplier)
if (Multiplier == 1)
Lots = NormalizeDouble(LotSize, 2);
else
Lots = NormalizeDouble(LotSize, 2);
}
OrderSend(Symbol(), OP_SELL, Lots, Bid, Slippage, 0, 0, TradeComment, Reference, Red);
Error = GetLastError();
if (Error != 0)
Write("Error opening SELL order: " + ErrorDescription(Error) + " (D" + Error + ") Bid:" + Bid + " Slippage:" + Slippage);
else
{
TickPrice = Close[0];
TradeAllowed = false;
}
}
}
Is this some that can be done?
