Print answer wrong

[Oliver Podolak]

Hello,

I place an Order, but I get the Wrong Order open time. Can someone tell me, where the error is?

My code:

if( OrderSend(Symbol(),OP_SELL,0.1,Bid,3,0,(Bid-0.0003),NULL,0,0,Red))
               {
               Print("SELL order opened : ",OrderOpenTime());
               delTimeOpen( cnt );
               }
            else
               Print("Error opening SELL order : ",GetLastError());

thank you :)

Oliver Podolak: I get the Wrong Order open time.

               Print("SELL order opened : ",OrderOpenTime());

1. Why did you post your MT4 question in the Root / MT5 General section instead of the MQL4 section, (bottom of the Root page?)

   Next time post in the correct place. The moderators will likely move this thread there soon.

2. You can not use any Trade Functions until you select an order.

Now I changed the bot a little and selected the Order, but it still doesn't print the right OrderOpenTime. Can you tell me what I did wrong now? Thanks!

This is the code:

#property strict
int buyTicket;
int counter = 1;
double price;
void Ontick)=
  {
   if(counter == 1)
   {
   buyTicket = OrderSend(_Symbol,OP_BUY,0.01,Ask,3,0,0,NULL,0,0,Blue);
   price = OrderOpenPrice();
   counter = 0;
   }

   OrderSelect(buyTicket,SELECT_BY_POS,MODE_TRADES);
      Print("Order Open Price: ",OrderOpenPrice());     
  }
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+

It prints that:

   You're not printing it.
   

2. price = OrderOpenPrice();

   What part of "You can not use any Trade Functions until you select an order," was unclear?

3. Check your return codes (OrderSend, OrderSelect) for errors, report them and you would know why. Don't just silence the compiler, it is trying to help you.

   Only those functions that return a value (e.g. iClose, MarketInfo, etc.) must you call ResetLastError before in order to check after.

4. What position is buyTicket?
