Help with a simple script

  • 0

Good afternoon, I want to run the script in 2 steps:
1. The script opens two pending orders buystop and sellstop;
2. as soon as the price touches one of the orders,the “opposite” one is removed(for example, a buystop is opened,a sellstop is removed);
If I had no problems with the first step,then with the second….
Please tell me how to implement step 2 correctly.I heard that you can do this through the standard cycle of iterating orders (for (int i=orderstotal()-1; i>=0; i–) until> some does not fit the magic number,but how to implement this I do not understand.
I will be glad of any help and any advice.Thank you in advance.

      Alexey Viktorov:

      Doing this in a script is absolutely wrong. In this case, you will have to loop the script, which is not welcome. But if you do this in the Expert Advisor, the algorithm is quite simple:

      1. When opening orders, their tickets are stored in different variables or in an array.
      2. At each tick, orders are selected in turn and the order type is checked.
      3. If OP_BUY or OP_SELL means the second one is deleted and expertremove () is either waiting for the next command…

      Good afternoon again, thank you for describing the steps.Tell me a little more please.here is such a situation,the first step I have is this-the script opens with the onset of a certain time,two orders.Can I leave step 1 as a script and make step 2 as an Expert Advisor?And if so, how?Or maybe it would be better to do all the steps with one Expert Advisor?Thank you in advance:)))

      Thank you very much for your help.Only I (a leaky head) forgot to specify that I write in mql4.Sorry for wasting your time,I’ll try to redo the first part of the code for mql5, so that your work is not in vain

      I didn’t overdo it)
      Copied from my Expert Advisor, there is a similar functionality just)

      If there are no open positions before any of the orders are triggered, then I would build in an infinite loop checking the open position, and delete the remaining orders:
