CTrade ResultPrice() is 0.0 in live trading

New comment
 

I have the problem, that I do not get the price of the execution, when I use the class CTrade, the position is opened or closed, but the price is 0.0.
I wrote a small expert Advisor for test. In the Demo Account everything works, but only at Livetrading the price is 0.0
Does anybody know, how to resolve this problem?

#include <trade/trade.mqh>
CTrade cTrade;
int OnInit()
  {
//---
   
//---
   return(INIT_SUCCEEDED);
  }
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
//| Expert deinitialization function                                 |
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
void OnDeinit(const int reason)
  {
//---
   
  }
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
//| Expert tick function                                             |
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
void OnTick()
  {
//---
   if (PositionsTotal() == 0)
   {
      if (cTrade.Buy(1, NULL))
      {
         Print(cTrade.ResultPrice());
      }
   }
  }

Normal on ECN account (Market execution).

You need to use OnTrade() or OnTradeTransaction() to catch the deal price.

 

Hello Alain,

I have the same problem, but cannot solve it.

I want to find out how to get the close price after closing a position.

In the following code "PositionMagic" is an identifyer for different trade types I'm using.


if(m_trade.PositionClose(m_position.Ticket())) {
      TTPositionOpenPriceR[PositionMagic] = PositionGetDouble(POSITION_PRICE_OPEN); // works in simulation and live trading

      HistorySelect(0, TimeCurrent());
      TTPositionClosePriceR[PositionMagic] = HistoryDealGetDouble(HistoryDealGetTicket(HistoryDealsTotal()-1), DEAL_PRICE);
      strPositionClosePriceR = DoubleToString(TTPositionClosePriceR[PositionMagic], 2); // works in simulation, but NOT in live trading

}


Any help would be very welcome.


Best regards

Jorg

#property script_show_inputs

#include <MT4Orders.mqh> // https://www.mql5.com/ru/code/16006

input TICKET_TYPE inPositionTicket = 0; // Position Ticket to Close.

void OnStart()
{
  if (OrderSelect(inPositionTicket, SELECT_BY_TICKET) && !OrderCloseTime()) // Select Position from Live
  {
    Print("Before Closing");
    OrderPrint();
    
    if (OrderClose(OrderTicket(), OrderLots(), OrderClosePrice(), 0) && // Position Close
        OrderSelect(inPositionTicket, SELECT_BY_TICKET))                // Select Position from History
    {
      Print("\nAfter Closing");
      OrderPrint();
      
      double TTPositionClosePriceR = OrderClosePrice();
    }
  }
