Dear how to count only open orders like OP_BUY and OP_SELL only. i like to compare order count and after i want to execute the program. i made the function as below.



int totalordercount()
{
int total=0;
for(int i=0;i<=OrdersTotal();i++)
{
OrderSelect(i,SELECT_BY_POS,MODE_TRADES);
{
if(OrderType()==(OP_BUY||OP_SELL)) total++;
}
}
return(total);
}



i call this function for another order opening like if totalordercount()==1 than the another order open. but not succeed. kindly help regarding.

 

int count_BUY()
{
   int count_0 = 0;
   int li_4 = OrdersTotal() - 1;
   for (int pos_8 = li_4; pos_8 >= 0; pos_8--)
   {
      if (OrderSelect(pos_8, SELECT_BY_POS, MODE_TRADES))
         if (OrderType() == OP_BUY  && OrderMagicNumber() == MagicNumber) count_0++;
   }
   if (count_0 >= 1) return (0);
   return (1);
}


int count_SELL()
{
   int count_0 = 0;
   int li_4 = OrdersTotal() - 1;
   for (int pos_8 = li_4; pos_8 >= 0; pos_8--)
   {
      if (OrderSelect(pos_8, SELECT_BY_POS, MODE_TRADES))
         if ((OrderType() == OP_SELL && OrderMagicNumber() == MagicNumber)) count_0++;
   }
   if (count_0 >= 1) return (0);
   return (1);
}
