limit EA Number of Trades Per day

New comment
 

hello guys

I have developed an EA which i want to take a maximum of three trades per day. but it seems my function for that is not working. still learning, your help would be much appreciated. my code below

      int TodaysOrders = 0;

      for(int i= OrdersTotal()-1; i >=0; i--)
        {

         OrderSelect(i, SELECT_BY_POS,MODE_TRADES);

         if(TimeDayOfYear(OrderOpenTime()) == TimeDayOfYear(TimeCurrent()))
           {

            TodaysOrders += 1;

           }
 
  1. This is the MT5 forum. Orders are only pending trades. Open trades are positions (via CPositionInfo or directly).
  2. Your test is for concurrently open, not total per day.

  1. Do you really expect an answer? There are no mind readers here and our crystal balls are cracked. What is “it.”
  2. Confirm that you are using MT5.
