Check pendings

[Anthony Didier Olivier Capon]

Hello, 

is this code ok for checking if there are pendings in mql5?

// Funzione per verificare se ci sono ordini limitati eseguiti

void CheckLimitOrders(double currentPrice)

{

    bool pendingLimits = false; // Flag per indicare se ci sono ordini limit pendenti


    for (int i = OrdersTotal() - 1; i >= 0; i--)

    {

        if (m_order.SelectByIndex(i))

        {

            if (m_order.Symbol() == m_symbol.Name() && m_order.Magic() == InpMagic)

            {

                if (m_order.Type() == ORDER_TYPE_BUY_LIMIT || m_order.Type() == ORDER_TYPE_SELL_LIMIT)

                {

                    if (m_order.State() == ORDER_STATE_STARTED || m_order.State() == ORDER_STATE_PLACED)

                    {

                        pendingLimits = true; // Ci sono ordini limit pendenti

                    }

                }

            }

        }

    }

For future:

 bool CheckLimitOrders() {
   for (int i=0; i < OrdersTotal(); i++) {
      ulong ticket = OrderGetTicket(i);
      if(OrderSelect(ticket)) {
         if (OrderGetInteger(ORDER_MAGIC) == InpMagic && OrderGetString(ORDER_SYMBOL) == _Symbol && ticket != 0){
            return true;
            break;
         }
      }
   }
   return false;
}

    }

    return pendingLimits; // Return whether there are executed pending limit orders
}

OrderSelect is used to select each order.
OrderSymbol() and OrderMagicNumber() are used to check if the order belongs to the current symbol and has a specific magic number (if applicable).
OrderType() is used to check the type of the order (buy limit or sell limit).
OrderState() is used to check if the order has been executed ( ORDER_STATE_FILLED ).

Thanks, i am still learning.

I find out that the following code is enough: OrdersTotal()

so:
