when does a buyStopLimit order will be sent to the server? when a new trade(buy/sell) action occurs?

 

when does a buyStopLimit order will be sent to the server? when a new trade(buy/sell) action occurs? or when a new request is detected without the need to buy/sell occurance in the market?

I mean without coding. I mean the kind of order that we place manually.

Ok, thank you for your explanation.

I am not familiar with stock market. But it seems he is trying to place a pending order when market is closed.

yes i explain to him by pm , about pending order ;

and it is possible : when market is clossed ( stock ) we can set pending manually or modified them, but by expert we can not;

i wrote an expert and i use " void onthick() ".

 

let me explain my question:

when I set  a buyStopLimit order in MT5, and I do it when the market is closed.

I set these info:

Type: buy stop limit

Volume: 1000

Price: 3000

StopLimit Price:  4000

Stop Loss: 3000

Take profit: 0

Expiration: GTC

 my question is this: when exactly will this pending order will be sent to the server? 1-the moment the market opens?(by knowing that it has already reached that 3000 price in the last day.) or 2- it depends on the depth of market changes?(when the Ask price reaches 3000? ) or 3- it depends on the real buy/sell actions that take place(when a real trade of buy-sell takes place in 3000 price?)?

The pending order is sent to the server immediately. The triggering of the pending order is done when last price reaches the pending order price.

But what I can see is that your buy stoplimit order doesn't make sense. You want to place this order at 3000. When price reaches 3000, a buy limit order will be placed at 4000. But by placing a buy limit order above the market price, this buy limit will be triggered almost immediately. See documentation https://www.metatrader5.com/en/terminal/help/trading/general_concept
