Can anyone see any problems with the following code?

I am unable to get the OrderClose function to work.

All variable are referenced. OrderSelect is set up as well.


It compiles...it just does not work.



if ((order_type==OP_BUY) && (DayOfWeek() == 5) && ((Hour() - offset) >= Fri_Tradeclose_hr))


OrderClose(OrderTicket(),order_size,Bid,Slippage,Green);

if ((order_type==OP_SELL) && (DayOfWeek() == 5) && ((Hour() - offset) >= Fri_Tradeclose_hr))


OrderClose(OrderTicket(),order_size,Ask,Slippage,Yellow);

Inserted Code
if(TimeDayOfWeek(TimeLocal())==5 &&  TimeHour(TimeLocal())>=Fri_Tradeclose_hr){
for(cnt=OrdersTotal()-1;cnt>=0;cnt--){
OrderSelect(cnt, SELECT_BY_POS, MODE_TRADES);
if(OrderType()==OP_BUY){OrderClose(OrderTicket(),OrderLots(),Bid,Slippage,Aqua);}    
if(OrderType()==OP_SELL){OrderClose(OrderTicket(),OrderLots(),Ask,Slippage,Aqua);}
}//END of For
}//END of If
My routine uses your computers local time NOT the brokers server time. (I always find it easier to close at my computers clock time)

Thanks Aja.

I threw the code in there and it compiled perfectly. I'll test it on sunday.

Thanks again!
