Position Ticket on open and close

New comment
 

Hi,

I am looking to get the specific ticket position of orders when they hit a take profit or a stop loss. I wrote the following code to store the tickets whenever a new position is opened: 

if(trade.Buy(lot_min, _Symbol, ask, stop_loss, take_profit))
{
   Print("TICKET OPEN: ", PositionGetTicket(PositionsTotal()-1));
   tickets[count] = PositionGetTicket(PositionsTotal()-1);      
}

And the following to get the ticket of every positions whenever a take profit or stop loss is reached:

void OnTradeTransaction(const MqlTradeTransaction& trans,
                        const MqlTradeRequest& request,
                        const MqlTradeResult& result)
{
   //--- get transaction type as enumeration value
   ENUM_TRADE_TRANSACTION_TYPE type=trans.type;
   //--- if transaction is result of addition of the transaction in history
   if(type==TRADE_TRANSACTION_DEAL_ADD)
   {
      if(HistoryDealSelect(trans.deal))
         m_deal.Ticket(trans.deal);
      else
      {
         Print(__FILE__," ",__FUNCTION__,", ERROR: HistoryDealSelect(",trans.deal,")");
         return;
      }
      long reason=-1;
      if(!m_deal.InfoInteger(DEAL_REASON,reason))
      {
         Print(__FILE__," ",__FUNCTION__,", ERROR: InfoInteger(DEAL_REASON,reason)");
         return;
      }
      if((ENUM_DEAL_REASON)reason==DEAL_REASON_SL)
      {
         Print("TICKET HIT: ", trans.deal);    
      }
      else if((ENUM_DEAL_REASON)reason==DEAL_REASON_TP)
      {
         Print("TICKET HIT: ", trans.deal);  
      }
   }
}

However, in this way I am getting the ticket of each deal that is different for each opened/closed transaction. Instead, I would like to get the position ticket (so the same ticket of the open deal) within the OnTradeTransaction function to identify which of the position was closed.
