Opening 10 Limit Orders at a Time

Hey guys,

I'm running an expert I created that opens two limit orders at a specific time each day on five currency pairs (10 orders at a time, tick dependent of course). I'm using OrderReliable.mqh, but I'm occasionally still not having all the orders open when I need.

Any thoughts from those who have been down this road?

Thanks,

Glen

I feel your pain, I've had the same problems. I have never used orderreliable, but basically what you need to do is keep on trying until you get a positive ticket number (which means you've been filled.)

Adding a

Sleep(100);
RefreshRates();

between orders might help a bit.

OrderReliable.mqh has a sleep feature in it but I'll take a look at this, thanks.

Simple. Well just name the tickets or something, and write in the code :
if not open 2 orders then open them...in a loop so that it keeps banging it again and again until it makes the orders.

Thanks for that input...I've combined a while loop (while ticket<0, continue attempting to open) with the OrderReliable. Maybe that will make it extra reliable now .
