The whole thing seems kind of silly if you ask me. But, if you gotta do it you gotta do it ...

Hi ecTrade,

I know it does appear strange at first, but if you read in the broker section on the MB Trading thread, one chap got slipped 100 pips on his market order, it becomes apparent why it is not practical to enter a stop before you know what fill you picked up on the order.

Stop orders are bad things......unfortunately its that or the bucketshop....sort of 'How would you like to be executed, with a blindfold or without'

Anyway, your code looks good except for 1 remark, if you are interested......the interleaving of "if" conditions is a huge drag on execution speed. I usually break it into single if statements starting with the ones least likey to be executed. In this particular case its not a problem but many times your condition will include a function as an argument and this will be carried out each and every tic, even if the other conditions do not require the statment to be executed.

You also make a good point about backing up your ordermodify elsewhere in the program. I guess it depends on your strategy. If you have a trade management program, I guess this is less serious. In your case I see there is no SL and only a TP. I would think a good trailing stop program would mean that a backup Ordermodify is not an issue.

OrderSend(Symbol(),OP_BUY,1,0,0,0,0,"ECN Test",0,0,CLR_NONE);
