[Vladimir Karputov]

Sergey Gritsay:
Unfortunately, there is no analog of theMarketInfo(symbf,MODE_MARGINREQUIRED) property in MQL5, but it was already discussed somewhere on the forum

OrderCalcMargin

OrderCalcMargin Calculates the amount of margin required for the specified order type in the current account and in the current market environment, excluding current pending orders and open positions. Allows you to estimate the amount of margin for the planned trade. The value is returned in the account currency. bool OrderCalcMargin ( ENUM_ORDER_TYPE action, // order type string symbol, // symbol name double volume, // volume double price, // open price double& margin // variable for margin value); Parameters action [in] Order type, can accept values from ENUM_ORDER_TYPE. symbol [in] Name of the financial instrument. volume [in] Trade operation volume. price [in] Opening price. margin [out] Variable, where the necessary amount of margin will be written in case of successful execution of this function.

You need to get programmatically,the size of free funds needed to open 1 lot to buy in MQL5, analog of MQL4 "MarketInfo(symbf,MODE_MARGINREQUIRED);"

Try the OrderCheck() function.

Alexey Kozitsyn:
Try the OrderCheck() function.

Thank you! Figured it out.

double lot=1.0;
double margin_buy,margin_sell;
OrderCalcMargin(ORDER_TYPE_BUY,_Symbol,lot,SymbolInfoDouble(_Symbol,SYMBOL_ASK),margin_buy);
OrderCalcMargin(ORDER_TYPE_SELL,_Symbol,lot,SymbolInfoDouble(_Symbol,SYMBOL_BID),margin_sell);
Print("margin_buy=",margin_buy);
Print("margin_sell=",margin_sell);

Print("margin_buy=",margin_buy);
Print("margin_sell=",margin_sell);

Yes, you can, but in the case of OrderCheck() it is fed with the trade request structure already ready to be sent just before the request itself.

I want to transfer part of the code into a function, but the result of the function is not to return a value, but to actually change the values of the variables, how do I do that?

 int CountExpOrder_OS=0;

 int CountExpOrder_OB=0;

 int CountMarketOrder_OS=0;

 int CountMarketOrder_OB=0;

 

OpenOrdersInfo();

void OpenOrdersInfo()

  {

   CountExpOrder_OS=StrToInteger(Order.Exp_Order_Info(Symbol(),Magic,SELL,ALL,"Number"));

   CountExpOrder_OB=StrToInteger(Order.Exp_Order_Info(Symbol(),Magic,BUY,ALL,"Number"));

   CountMarketOrder_OS=StrToInteger(Order.Market_Order_Info(Symbol(), Magic, OP_SELL, ALL, "Number"));

   CountMarketOrder_OB=StrToInteger(Order.Market_Order_Info(Symbol(), Magic, OP_BUY, ALL, "Number"));

   Print("Отложенных ордеров на покупку открыто(Magic: ",Magic,")=",CountExpOrder_OB);

   Print("Отложенных ордеров на продажу открыто(Magic: ",Magic,")=",CountExpOrder_OS);

   Print("Рыночных ордеров на покупку открыто(Magic: ",Magic,")=",CountMarketOrder_OB);

   Print("Рыночных ордеров на продажу открыто(Magic: ",Magic,")=",CountMarketOrder_OS);

  }

it won't help?

int OpenOrdersInfo()

return(0);

It's OK here, VOID doesn't return the result.

I could try that, but it's not a good solution:

int CountExpOrder_OS=0,CountExpOrder_OB=0,CountMarketOrder_OS=0,CountMarketOrder_OB=0;

OpenOrdersInfo(CountExpOrder_OS,CountExpOrder_OB,CountMarketOrder_OS,CountMarketOrder_OB);
  Print("Ордеров на покупку(Magic: ",Magic,")=",CountExpOrder_OB);
  Print("Ордеров на продажу(Magic: ",Magic,")=",CountExpOrder_OS);
  Print("Позиций на покупку(Magic: ",Magic,")=",CountMarketOrder_OB);
  Print("Позиций на продажу(Magic: ",Magic,")=",CountMarketOrder_OS);


void OpenOrdersInfo(int &CountExpOrder_OS,int &CountExpOrder_OB,int &CountMarketOrder_OS,int &CountMarketOrder_OB)
 {
  CountExpOrder_OS=StrToInteger(Order.Exp_Order_Info(Symbol(),Magic,SELL,ALL,"Number"));
  CountExpOrder_OB=StrToInteger(Order.Exp_Order_Info(Symbol(),Magic,BUY,ALL,"Number"));
  CountMarketOrder_OS=StrToInteger(Order.Market_Order_Info(Symbol(), Magic, OP_SELL, ALL, "Number"));
  CountMarketOrder_OB=StrToInteger(Order.Market_Order_Info(Symbol(), Magic, OP_BUY, ALL, "Number"));
 }

Vladislav Andruschenko:

Yes, it's working correctly - it's just that there was a bug on my part and I fell into a stupor.

Thank you all for your help.

Now I will ask questions on five :)

Yes, that's right - it was just a slip-up on my part and I fell into a stupor.

Thank you all for your help.

I'll be asking questions for a fiver now :)

5 quid for an answer?
