Add pending order to existing open order

[eacombi]

Hi,

What is the code if I want to put one buystop order and one sellstop order for any open trades that I opened manually (or by another EA)? I trade multiple currency pairs so I need an EA that just sit on my MT4, wait for any open trades (any symbol), then add/open the pending orders.

Thank in advance.

double SpreadA = (Ask - Bid);


double M=((Bid+SpreadA)+1*Point)



TakeTPB = (Bid+15*Point);


Order = OrderSend(Symbol(),OP_BUYLIMIT,Lot,M,2,0,TakeTPB);

That is one point not one pip
These are the rules for orders opening prices :

Order Type	Open Price	Close Price	Open Price of a Pending Order	Transforming a Pending Order into aMarket Order
Buy	Ask	Bid
Sell	Bid	Ask
BuyLimit			Below the current Ask price	Ask price reaches open price
SellLimit			Above the current Bid price	Bid price reaches open price
BuyStop			Above the current Ask price	Ask price reaches open price
SellStop			Below the current Bid price	Bid price reaches open price
