Hi Guys
I'm new to coding and I've got a problem with my sell order opening and closing the trade as soon as it enters. Can anyone figure out why. Im trying to sell when the MinusDi crosses the PlusDI, or when MinusDI is Higher than PlusDI.
Any help would be great.

if ((PlusDIone<MinusDIone)&&(PlusDItwo<MinusDItwo)&& (PlusDI>MinusDI))
{
int OrderResult = OrderSend(Symbol(), OP_BUY,LotsToTrade,Ask, 10,0,0,"Buy Order",Magic,0,clrBlue) ; // Ordersend is function for inputting Buy or Sell
LastTradePlacedTimeStamp= TimeCurrent(); // note the time you send the trade used in trade delay code
ExitRuleLong = True;
}
