SYMBOL() AND NULL - page 2

[Mohammed Abdulwadud Soubra]

biantoro kunarto:

Try this:

This exaxtly what I have used

But

It is not the same as I want

I want

- the expert trades to be counted only

- the pair traded count

Example:

If eurusd short position has manually opened previously. And the current expert has the right condition to Open a short position in the same pair (eurusd). IN THIS CASE OrdersTotal() WILL NOT OPEN THE TRADE!

After some time same expert has a right condition to open another position but in another currency pair.

then use magic number ()

[Mohammed Abdulwadud Soubra]

mmmmm 

It seems that what I want

I am not in home right now

I will try it

MagicNumber()   <<< correct?

[Mohammed Abdulwadud Soubra]

Marco vd Heijden:
then use magic number ()

no magicnumber function!

[Mohammed Abdulwadud Soubra]

maybe needs to use the magic number as a variable

[Ahmed Soliman]

bool TradeExist(int magic, int type = -1)
{
   for(int cnt=0; cnt<OrdersTotal(); cnt++)
   {
      if(!OrderSelect(cnt, SELECT_BY_POS, MODE_TRADES)) continue;
      if(OrderMagicNumber()==magic && (OrderType()==type || type==-1))
      return (true);
    }
    return (false);
}

Then use

bool HaveTrades = TradeExist(MagicNumber);
//<<----------------------->>

Ahmed Soliman:

Then use

I will try it
