Simple Pending Order EA help

hello

i really hate asking for this, but i have a seemingly simple EA i am trying to code. Thing is, i cant make it function properly. So i come with my hat in my hand and asking for help

The EA is simple;
- if bar closes up, place buy order and a sellstop on previous open
- if next bar closes up, delete the pending order and repeat the process
- if the pending sellstop is triggered, close the open buy and place a buystop where the original buy was.
- repeat the process with placing pending orders until the bar closes

- i know some will hate me now, but it will be martingale orders. dont need the lecture, i have experience with martingale and this is part of the plan

opposite for sell, buystop place on previous open and so on

some settings that should be user adjustable
- initial lot
- use stoploss/takeprofit = true/false
- stoploss
- takeprofit
- magicnumber
-

my problem is with the placing of the third, fourth, fifth, ....... pending orders, and espescially with reliably deleting the pending orders on bar close

hope someone are able to help me with this

What do you have so far?
You'd be more likely to get help if you posted your code if you really are coding it yourself then point out where you are having problems.
Without posting what you have it looks like you want someone to code it for you in its entirety.

i have nothing so far, that is the problem... i cant get the pending orders to delete properly, and that is one of the main features in the system i am developing. this is a big part of it, i have parts of it coded, filters, money managment, trade times.

sorry for poor description, i just wanted to see a example of the code/EA i described in my first post, to help me get a understanding of how order deleting and how i can get pending orders set when prior conditions are met. like if trade 1 = true, place pending order 2. if order 2 is taken, place order 3 and so on.

i can provide what little i have, but it will be useless as i lack the understanding of pending orders and their deletion. i am used to code "if condition 1 and conditon 2 are true, and it is in check with filters, place order"

will post the code when i get of work, i am offshore now so it can take a few days.

as it was pointed out to me, and i agree, i should post my attempt at coding this in the thread. i have tried many things, but i cannot get it to even close order on new bar consistently.

sorry, if i need to show a code i might as well forget it. no use in putting up useless code.

Sorry to bump this old thread but I'm having some problems trying to delete a pending order myself.
My EA should delete a selected pending order if a signal to enter the market in the opposite direction is received. For example, if there is a BUYSTOP in place and a signal to place a SELLSTOP is received, the BUYSTOP order is deleted and replaced with a SELLSTOP order.
However, it seems I can't even get past the deletion of the pending order :S I have inserted my attempt below. Any comment or criticisms are welcome (even if it's in regard to resurrecting a thread from the dead).
for(cnt=OrdersTotal()-1;cnt>=0;cnt--){
if(OrderSelect(cnt,SELECT_BY_POS,MODE_TRADES))
if(OrderType()>=OP_BUYLIMIT && OrderSymbol()==Symbol()

&& OrderMagicNumber()==MagicNumber

&& iBarShift(NULL,0,OrderOpenTime(),false)>0){

if(OrderType()==OP_BUYSTOP) {
if(SELLsignal){

deleted=orderDeleteReliable(OrderTicket());

if (deleted>0) {

Print("BUYSTOP order ",OrderTicket()," deleted by signal");

return(1); }

else {

Print("Deleting BUYSTOP order ",OrderTicket(), " failed @ ",TimeToStr(Time[0],TIME_DATE|TIME_MINUTES)); return(1);

} } } } }
