Hi Guys,

how can I code an EA that can trade 4 pairs, but each two pairs were traded with a specific magic number in one EA.

EA:
1.) buy EURUSD / sell GBPUSD <-- both pairs get magic number 1234
2.) buy EURUSD / sell USDCHF <-- both pairs get magic number 5678

So EA check for both magic number:
- open positions
- profit of open positions
- close that pairs with that magic number which are in given profit

Who can help me?

Best regards,

try this,not tested though

PHP Code

double profit1,profit2, price;
for (int i=0; i<OrdersTotal(); i++){
  if (!OrderSelect(i, SELECT_BY_POS, MODE_TRADES)) continue;
  if (OrderMagicNumber()==1234){
    profit1 += OrderProfit();
  }
  else if (OrderMagicNumber()==5678)
    profit2+=OrderProfit();
}

if (profit1>1000.0){
  for (i=0; i<OrdersTotal(); i++){
    if (!OrderSelect(i, SELECT_BY_POS, MODE_TRADES)) continue;
    if (OrderMagicNumber()==1234){
        if (OrderType()==0) price=Bid;
        else if (OrderType()==1) price=Ask;
        OrderClose(OrderTicket(), OrderLots(), price, 3);
    }
  }
}

if (profit2>1000.0){
  for (i=0; i<OrdersTotal(); i++){
    if (!OrderSelect(i, SELECT_BY_POS, MODE_TRADES)) continue;
    if (OrderMagicNumber()==5678){
        if (OrderType()==0) price=Bid;
        else if (OrderType()==1) price=Ask;
        OrderClose(OrderTicket(), OrderLots(), price, 3);
    }
  }
}

Thanks neomn,

but there is no check, if there are open positions of one of the two magic numbers? We need different versions of: (int i=0; i<OrdersTotal(); i++)
and after closing a position a code like i--

Do you know what I mean?
