You can do something similar to this :

int start()

{

if (OrdersTotal()==1 && isOpened(OP_SELLSTOP)) // code to open buy stop

if (OrdersTotal()==1 && isOpened(OP_BUYSTOP)) // code to open sell stop

return(0);

}

bool isOpened(int type)

{

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

{

if (OrderSelect(i,SELECT_BY_POS,MODE_TRADES))

if (OrderType()==type)

return(true);

}

return(false);

}
