EA Check open orders

[sartuxtips]

hello,

I made a simple EA that reads from a CSV and opens the orders, there would be the possibility to check if there are already open orders for a symbol?

1. Perhaps you should read the manual.

   The function selects an order for further processing.

2. Using OrdersTotal directly and/or no Magic number filtering on your OrderSelect loop means your code is incompatible with every EA (including itself on other charts and manual trading.)
