Coz he is using seconds and i told u my friend i wana working with Sleep function means miliseconds

That does not invalidate the explanation

If you replace the return by Sleep it shall work.

Yeah,, its Good idea i will try it

Thanks friend

if(TimeCurrent() < LastClosed("CloseTime")+3600 ) { return; }

int x =3600000;

if(TimeCurrent() < LastClosed("CloseTime")+x )
 {
Sleep(x);

}

like that does not work

like that does not work

int x =3600000;

if(TimeCurrent() < LastClosed("CloseTime")+ x/1000)
 {
Sleep(x);

}

That sleeps for an hour, and if the time has not passed, it sleeps for another hour. It does that even if the last closed order with 59 minutes ago. Not what OP wanted.

actually he can place anything lower than 3600 seconds in place of x/1000. like 5 or 10 seconds. just to check if an orders has been closed. Or check only the orders that hass been opened by the EA, if the OrderCloseTime was 0 and changed to something different, than the order has been closed. Just need think a little bit.

how can i add My mql4 learning adventures [WARNING CLOSED!] Any newbie
