How do I put this into code?

I want to create coding for this strategy I have but can't seem to find out how to write this into code:

-if price moves up x number of pips from open, place pending sell order
-opposite (if prices moves down x number of pips from open, place pending buy order)

can anyone help out?

I assume you mean the open of the current bar and not something else.

If (Ask - Open[0] > nPips*pf*Point)
{
// place pending sell order
}

pf - is the pips factor for 4 or 5 digit brokers and will have a value of 1 or 10. Reverse the logic for shorting.

You should place the 2 pending orders once the candle open at the distances you want from the open price. What are you talking about are instant orders and I think you don't want that.
