Hello,
I need a very simple way to find if the last deal CLOSED a BUY opened or a SELL opened position.
EXAMPLE: If I use Ctrade trade; trade.PositionClose() how do I find if I closed a BUY opened or a SELL opened position.
Thanks again for help !
You can try this:
HistorySelect(0, TimeCurrent());
and then
Print("Last deal type = "+EnumToString((ENUM_DEAL_TYPE)HistoryDealGetInteger(HistoryDealGetTicket(HistoryDealsTotal()-1),DEAL_TYPE)));
If the last deal type was a buy deal (buy, buy limit, buy stop or buy stop limit), you have closed a short position. If the last deal type was a sell deal (sell, sell limit, sell stop or sell stop limit), then you have closed a long position.
P.S.: of course I'm assuming you actually know your last deal has closed a previously opened position.
