- Bare in mind: There is eventually nothing that ha not been programmed fpr Mt4/5 yet.
I use this code but is dos not stop adding total_open_positions !
double check_total_positions () { for(int v = PositionsTotal() - 1; v >= 0; v--) { ulong positionticket = PositionGetTicket(v); ulong magic=PositionGetInteger(POSITION_MAGIC); if(PositionSelectByTicket(positionticket)) { if(magic ==EXPERT_MAGIC ) { total_open_positions ++ ; } } } return total_open_positions; }
??
Have you gone through your code with the debugger?

sorry it's complete code:
double check_total_positions () { int total_open_positions =0; for(int v = PositionsTotal() - 1; v >= 0; v--) { ulong positionticket = PositionGetTicket(v); ulong magic=PositionGetInteger(POSITION_MAGIC); if(PositionSelectByTicket(positionticket)) { if(magic ==EXPERT_MAGIC ) { total_open_positions ++ ; } } } return total_open_positions; }

Open positions: GBPUSD BUY 0.03 lot and USDPLN SELL 0.01
Pending orders are placed: USDPLN Sell limit 0.01 and GBPUSD Buy limit 0.03
Maybe also intersting for you how to count long and short positions. To get all open positions just add them both up. :)

I know I'm late to the game, but here:
int CountOrdersMagic(int magicnumber) { int count = 0; for(int i = 0; i < PositionsTotal(); i++) { if(PositionSelectByTicket(PositionGetTicket(i))) { if(PositionGetInteger(POSITION_MAGIC) == magicnumber) { count++; } } } return (count); }
