Remind me of the situation

Please advise in the following:

1.there is a function "if (timecur == "08:00:00") OrderSend (Symbol(), OP_BUY, Loot, Ask, 50, SL, TP,NULL,0,0,L);"

2.Testing it from 23.08.2010-23.10.2010.

3.Until 12.10.2010 trades were opened normally by 1 pc.

4.But now the 12.10.2010 function opens as much transactions as the deposit allows (about 7 pc).

I can not understand the reason, may be that for a second has time to pass at least 5 ticks and therefore has time to open so much? or there is another matter? if all the same first option, please advise how to prescribe the deal opened only once?

I would be very grateful, thank you.

 
The easiest way to do this is to check that a given number of orders are in the market before opening a new order.

Here is a simple function that checks the number of open orders:

 int Opened(){
     int Orders=0;
     for (int cnt=OrdersTotal()-1; cnt>=0; cnt--){
       if(OrderSelect(cnt,SELECT_BY_POS,MODE_TRADES)){
         if(OrderSymbol()==Symbol()){
           if(OrderMagicNumber()==Magic){
               if(OrderType()<2)Orders++;
      } } } }       
  return(Orders);
}

Function Opened() should be located outside of function start(). It can be at the very end of the code.

Insert it in your condition:

if (timecur == "08:00:00" && Opened()==0) OrderSend (Symbol(), OP_BUY, Loot, Ask, 50, SL, TP,NULL,0,0,L);

Yes, it really helped, but it's just that I will be opening several orders, and they shouldn't be related to each other. I would like to limit opening of a deal with a certain flag, and that's it.

I wrote it like this

int Control;

if ((timecur == "08:00:00") && (Control == 0)) OrderSend (Symbol(), OP_BUY, Loot,Ask, 50, SL, TP,NULL,0,0,L);
Alert(GetLastError());
Control = 1;

And zero was returned only when I closed the order

OrderClose(Ticket,Loot,Bid,50,R);
Alert (GetLastError());
Control = 0;

But why this entry didn't help, maybe I made a mistake somewhere? Please help me

You can "shred" the function any way you want. It can fulfill all your wishes.

For example, you can specify what type of operations you are interested in or what Magics, or enter a position open time condition and many more.

Here is an example of separation into Buy and Sell:

 int Opened(int OP){
     int Orders=0;
     for (int cnt=OrdersTotal()-1; cnt>=0; cnt--){
       if(OrderSelect(cnt,SELECT_BY_POS,MODE_TRADES)){
         if(OrderSymbol()==Symbol()){
           if(OrderMagicNumber()==Magic){
               if(OP==OP_BUY)Orders++;
               if(OP==OP_SELL)Orders++;
      } } } }       
  return(Orders);
 }

Our possibilities are limited only by our imagination. You will surely succeed.

I will try it, thank you very much!
 

By the way, about Flags.

You can use the various Flags as a relay system to toggle the actions of different operations. They are quite capable of fulfilling any of your desires.

But it is important to have a clear picture of what and how you want it to work.

Just like in a railway junction, you need to have a clear picture of how the switches work.

 

Dear pros, can you tell me... I have a script to plot my calculations on a chart. In order to start drawing, I have to drag and drop it on the chart from the navigator. My question, is it possible to make the script get called from the panel "Graphic Tools" by pressing a key (my own, or assigned to one of the existing ones)?

It is possible to assign hotkeys to call any element of the "Navigator" window, except for elements of the "Accounts" group. In order to assign a shortcut to an element, one should execute the "Assign Hot Key" command of its context menu. Assigned hotkeys have higher priority than predefined ones. For example, initially Ctrl+O corresponds to calling the terminal settings window. If On Balance Volume indicator can be also assigned to this combination, pressing Ctrl+O will not open the terminal settings window.

I did not express myself precisely. Question - is it possible to make a script to be called from the "Graphic tools" panel by clicking an icon (e.g. Fibo icon)?
