Double Orders Issue

Quick question to everyone,

I have searched the site for posts on double order issues and I'm not getting an answer to this issue:

Every so often I get a double order placed (the same order twice) by my EA. Since not every order is duplicated, I am assuming it is a communications issue with the server. Does anyone know of any code out there that can help reduce or eliminate this issue?

Thanks

HI kiromano

It seems like that when you reconnect with sever your EA opens position again without checking existing position ........ this artical may help to solve your problem.

Can someone help please with this

I have an EA and I want to access 2 lines from an indicator within the EA the lines in the indicator are.

expression 1

if(iMA(NULL,0,Period(),1,MODE_SMA,PRICE_HIGH,i) > zigzag1 && iMA(NULL,0,Period(),1,MODE_SMA,PRICE_HIGH,i) != 0 && iMA(NULL,0,Period(),1,MODE_SMA,PRICE_HIGH,i) != EMPTY_VALUE) ExtMapBuffer2=iMA(NULL,0,Period(),1,MODE_SMA,PRICE_HIGH,i); else ExtMapBuffer2 = 0.0;;

expression 2

if(iMA(NULL,0,Period(),1,MODE_SMA,PRICE_LOW,i) < zigzag1 && iMA(NULL,0,Period(),1,MODE_SMA,PRICE_LOW,i) != 0 && iMA(NULL,0,Period(),1,MODE_SMA,PRICE_LOW,i) != EMPTY_VALUE) ExtMapBuffer1=iMA(NULL,0,Period(),1,MODE_SMA,PRICE_LOW,i); else ExtMapBuffer1 = 0.0;

I want to say in the EA

when expression 1 is true Buy & close sell if open

when expression 2 is true sell & close Buy if open

How can I do this?

How can I do this?

Is it something like

double Buy1_1 = iCustom(NULL, 0, "Trend", 96, Current + 0);

double Buy1_2 = 0;

double Sell1_1 = iCustom(NULL, 0, "Trend", 97, Current + 0);

double Sell1_2 = 0;

double CloseBuy1_1 = iCustom(NULL, 0, "Trend", 96, Current + 0);

double CloseBuy1_2 = 0;

double CloseSell1_1 = iCustom(NULL, 0, "Trend", 97, Current + 0);

double CloseSell1_2 = 0;

Help with my EA please

Please can you help me with my EA? It is based on the Inside Bar strategy, and, while it is very profitable in backtesting from June 08 this is a completely random phenomenon as it is not following the program whatsoever. The trade entry logic is based on this post here Between 40-100 pips per Day. But, instead, it places a new trade any old where as soon as the old one is closed and ignores the trading requirements. I'm sure my problem is really simple but my skills are not great.

I think that the problem is with these lines of code here:

if(Open[3]>Close[3] && High[2]=Low[3] && Open[2] High[2] || ask-2*Point> High[1])

{

Candle="Long";

}

if(Open[3]<Close[3] && High[2]=Low[3] && Open[2]>Close[2] && bid+2*Point < Low[2] || bid+2*Point < Low[1])

{

Candle="Short";

}

Please can somebody help as I have invested hours trying to fix this and am running out of ideas!

Thanks in advance
