Please, tell me how to use it in my EA ?

Roger:

You've given your own answer - Maybe something needs to be fixed somewhere in the configuration or something...?

Where is the configuration? Please, tell me!

Copy-paste ?!

You must insert the code in this way:

[Warstein]

// This function returns the total amount of orders the expert advisor has open  
int TotalOpenOrders()
{
  Cnt=OrdersTotal();
  int TotalOpenOrders = 0;
  if(Cnt==0)
  {
    return(0);
  }
    else
    {
    for(;Cnt>=0;Cnt--)
    {
      RefreshRates();
      OrderSelect(Cnt,SELECT_BY_POS);
      if(OrderMagicNumber()==Magic)
      {
      TotalOpenOrders++;
      }
    }
  }
  return(TotalOpenOrders);
}

I understand but how to use it afterwards. Do I have to write a condition?

//-------------------------------------------------------------------+
extern int    TotalOrders    = 1;
//-------------------------------------------------------------------+

    // only perform analysis and open new order if we have not reached our TotalOpenOrders max
    if(TotalOpenOrders() < TotalOrders)
    {

// This function returns the total amount of orders the expert advisor has opened
int TotalOpenOrders()
{
Cnt=OrdersTotal();
int TotalOpenOrders = 0;
if(Cnt==0)
{
return(0);
}
else
{
for(;Cnt>=0;Cnt--)
{
RefreshRates();
OrderSelect(Cnt,SELECT_BY_POS);
if(OrderMagicNumber()==Magic)
{
TotalOpenOrders++;
}
}
}
return(TotalOpenOrders);
}

And this function should be written before you start the program.

[Warstein]

Which programme?
