Vladimir Karputov:

You cannot do it this way! This is dirty code! For this you need to chop off your hands! You create a new object on every tick !!!

Yes tks, I fix it but the problem is the same.

I can´t see the peinding orders.

I need to know if after I send one order (BuyStop) if its finish or not. If is finish I want to open a new order, if not I will wating the order finish (stopprofit or stoploss)

Cesar :

See my example: there are counters of all pending orders.

Use these counters.

//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
//| Expert tick function                                             |
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
void OnTick()
  {
//---
   int buys=0,sells=0;
   int buy_limits=0,sell_limits=0,buy_stops=0,sell_stops=0;

   CalculateAllPositions(buys,sells);
   CalculateAllPendingOrders(buy_limits,sell_limits,buy_stops,sell_stops);

   string text="BUY: "+IntegerToString(buys)+", SELL: "+IntegerToString(sells)+"\n"+
               "Buy limits "+IntegerToString(buy_limits)+", Sell limits "+IntegerToString(sell_limits)+
               ", Buy stops "+IntegerToString(buy_stops)+", Sell stops "+IntegerToString(sell_stops);
   Comment(text);

  }

Hi Vladmir,

I had tried it.

but the backtest shows me:

2019.10.29 12:17:09.586 Core 1 2019.10.08 16:54:59   Alert: BUY: 0, SELL: 0, Buy limits 0, Sell limits 0, Buy stops 0, Sell stops 0

My Problem is simple:

I want to send a order with stoploss and takeprofit for each Tick (because here I will put my rules).

After a send the order I need to see if this order is finish or close I don´t know the best name. If the order was executed I want to put other new order with stopp loss and take profit.

To test it I will use the backtester of MetaTrader5.

Regards

Cesar :

Submit a trade order. Count the number of positions and pending orders. What is the problem? Do you know how to add numbers?

Added: please decide - are you placing a pending order or are you opening a position?

[Cesar]

Vladimir,

One question w hen I used: trade.BuyStop (100,Ask,_Symbol,StopLoss,TakeProfit,ORDER_TIME_GTC,0,"Teste Buy com Stop"); I send a Position or a Pending Order?  

See the attachment.

Your code places a pending Buy stop order

[Cesar]

Hi,

Okay, If my code place a pending Buy stop order, how I can see in the next tick if exist one pending order?

I do this in my codes: if there is a trade order “place a pending order”, I check the result of the trade operation:

   if(free_margin_check>margin_check)
     {
      datetime time_expiration=TimeCurrent()+InpPendingExpiration*60;
      if(m_trade.OrderOpen(m_symbol.Name(),
                           SPending[index].pending_type,check_lot,0.0,
                           m_symbol.NormalizePrice(SPending[index].price),
                           m_symbol.NormalizePrice(sl),
                           m_symbol.NormalizePrice(tp),
                           ORDER_TIME_SPECIFIED,
                           time_expiration))
        {
         if(m_trade.ResultOrder()==0)
           {
            if(InpPrintLog)
               Print(__FILE__," ",__FUNCTION__,", ERROR: ","#1 ",EnumToString(SPending[index].pending_type)," -> false. Result Retcode: ",m_trade.ResultRetcode(),
                     ", description of result: ",m_trade.ResultRetcodeDescription());
            if(InpPrintLog)
               PrintResultTrade(m_trade,m_symbol);
            return(false);
           }
         else
           {
            if(InpPrintLog)
               Print(__FILE__," ",__FUNCTION__,", OK: ","#2 ",EnumToString(SPending[index].pending_type)," -> true. Result Retcode: ",m_trade.ResultRetcode(),
                     ", description of result: ",m_trade.ResultRetcodeDescription());
            if(InpPrintLog)
               PrintResultTrade(m_trade,m_symbol);
            return(true);
           }
        }
      else
        {
         if(InpPrintLog)
            Print(__FILE__," ",__FUNCTION__,", ERROR: ","#3 ",EnumToString(SPending[index].pending_type)," -> false. Result Retcode: ",m_trade.ResultRetcode(),
                  ", description of result: ",m_trade.ResultRetcodeDescription());
         if(InpPrintLog)
            PrintResultTrade(m_trade,m_symbol);
         return(false);
        }
     }
   else
     {
      if(InpPrintLog)
         Print(__FILE__," ",__FUNCTION__,", ERROR: CAccountInfo.FreeMarginCheck returned the value ",DoubleToString(free_margin_check,2));
      return(false);
     }

Thus, I know quite accurately whether a pending order was rejected or a pending order was placed.

Hi, I made this code to check what you told me.

After testing , I have only one stock purchase and one stock sale.

Doubts:

1 - When testing is complete, will all positions be closed?

2 - Why do I have only one stock purchase?

3 - trade.ResultOrder () returns 2 all the time.

After the first purchase, I want to wait until the stock price reaches stop loss or take profit and sets a new position.

   if (trade.ResultOrder() == 0 )
     {
      trade.BuyStop( 100 ,Ask, _Symbol , 5 r4,TakeProfit, ORDER_TIME_GTC , 0 , "Teste Buy com Stop" );
     }
   else
     {
       Alert ( "I can but, because exist one open order" );
     }

Cesar : 

You mixed everything up.

First a trade order is sent: (if -> "true")

      if(m_trade.OrderOpen(m_symbol.Name(),
                           SPending[index].pending_type,check_lot,0.0,
                           m_symbol.NormalizePrice(SPending[index].price),
                           m_symbol.NormalizePrice(sl),
                           m_symbol.NormalizePrice(tp),
                           ORDER_TIME_SPECIFIED,
                           time_expiration))
        {
         if(m_trade.ResultOrder()==0)
           {

if the trade order returns true, check

      if(m_trade.OrderOpen(m_symbol.Name(),
                           SPending[index].pending_type,check_lot,0.0,
                           m_symbol.NormalizePrice(SPending[index].price),
                           m_symbol.NormalizePrice(sl),
                           m_symbol.NormalizePrice(tp),
                           ORDER_TIME_SPECIFIED,
                           time_expiration))
        {
         if(m_trade.ResultOrder()==0)
           {
