Deleting Limit orders or Pending orders

New comment
 

Hi, I am still learning coding and need some help. I am trying to create an EA where an order is opened once the criteria is met, in addition it also opens a Limit order a certain amount of pips away from the current open order.

I want the pending order to be removed/deleted once the open order has taken the profit and closed, therefor no need for the pending order to exist.

This is what I have currently.


{
     int result=0;
     if((iRSI(NULL,0,6,PRICE_CLOSE,1)<14)&&(iRSI(NULL,0,6,PRICE_CLOSE,0)<15)) // Here is your open buy rule
     {
        result=OrderSend(Symbol(),OP_BUY,Lots,Ask,Slippage,0,0,"My EA",MagicNumber,0,Blue);
        if(result>0)
        {
         TheStopLoss=0;
         TheTakeProfit=0;
         if(TakeProfit>0) TheTakeProfit=Ask+TakeProfit/AccountBalance()*10000*MyPoint;
         if(StopLoss>0) TheStopLoss=Ask-StopLoss*MyPoint;
         OrderSelect(result,SELECT_BY_TICKET);
         OrderModify(OrderTicket(),OrderOpenPrice(),NormalizeDouble(TheStopLoss,Digits),NormalizeDouble(TheTakeProfit,Digits),0,Green);
        }
        result=OrderSend(Symbol(),OP_BUYLIMIT,Lots*2,Ask-10,Slippage,0,0,"My EA",MagicNumber,0,Blue);
        if(result>0)
        return(0);

     }

Can anyone please assist me with what I need to add to this code to close the OP-BUYLIMIT order if the OP_BUY order closes.

 

Check the OrderCloseTime() to see if it has closed

Check if the OP_BUYLIMIT still exists as an OP_BUYLIMIT with OrderType(), if it does, delete it.

Do not use an EA generator, they create poor quality code and if you really want to learn how to code, you will learn bad habits.

result=OrderSend(Symbol(),OP_BUYLIMIT,Lots*2,Ask-10,Slippage,0,0,"My EA",MagicNumber,0,Blue);

 Ask-10??
