Hello,



I have problem with my EA to reset a flag ( in this sample = false ). I build Auto EA stop loss modify and dont know how to reset flag when is order close or come to stop loss.


PHP Code
if (OrderType()==OP_BUY)
                  {
                       diff=(Bid-OrderOpenPrice())/Point;
                        if (diff>=220 && Set20==false)  
{ 
                           {  
                              sl=OrderOpenPrice()+(diff*Point/2);
                              tp=Bid+(1000*Point);
                              if(OrderStopLoss()>0 && sl>OrderStopLoss())
                                 {
                                    OrderModify(OrderTicket(),OrderOpenPrice(),sl,tp,0,CLR_NONE);
                                    openLimit(OP_BUYLIMIT,OrderOpenPrice());
                                 } 
                              if(OrderStopLoss()==0)
                                 {
                                    OrderModify(OrderTicket(),OrderOpenPrice(),sl,tp,0,CLR_NONE);
                                    openLimit(OP_BUYLIMIT,OrderOpenPrice());
                                 }   
                             Set20=true; 
                              if (Set20==true)                      
                                     {
                                      
                                  Alert ("Stop loss 22pipov! Par: ",Symbol(),"   Stop loss na:  ",sl);
                                  
                              break;                           
                                     }
                           }
This is if PROFIT come to +20 pips than EA auto change stop loss profit/2 and make new limit order AND give SET20 on TRUE!

But now problem if price come to STOP LOSS and close order and come to this order open price i wonna to EA track new order agen that meen its must give SET20==false but i dont know why this not work :

code for set20==false :

PHP Code
if(Set20==true)
                            {
                           
                            if (Bid<=sl)                   
                              {
                                Set20=false;
                                if (Set20==false)                      
                                     {
                                 Alert ("Cena je dosegla SL na paru:  ",Symbol(),"Set20 je False");
                                 break;                           
                                     }
                               }

hey llukc ..... it might be better to use an array rather than flags.... both will work, but arrays will do the exact same thing with 1/5 the code.....

there might be several items that are more pressing than the flags......

it appears orders are being sent with no stoploss..... yet there is no provision coded to account for the market walking straight away from you.... if that happens, and it will, the both orders will hang till the end.....

you need some sort of protection there.....

also, the limit orders will have a high chance of not being filled..... there is no provision to delete them or expiration set......


//------

how attached are you to the ea as it stands now....... would you be interested in some changes......h
to trade and code, keep both simple... no call to impress....h
