Hi guys, I am having a persistent problem, I am trying to select the previous order of the same symbol and type (buy/sell), check if the profit has gone up by certain value (pyramid) before opening a second order. The code below shows what I did, but its not working. UsePoint is either 0.01 or 0.0001.
Count the orders
check the time, the youngest is yours

We're not going to code it for you (although it could happen if you are lucky or the problem is interesting).

I posted the code above as shown.
I don't think a select loop is required as the EA is used across several securities with the same magic number.
My problem is I want to select the previous order (ABuyticket) of the same symbol (possibly after several hours or days after opening it), check to see if price has moved in my favour by (Pyramid * UsePoint), if it has, then I open a second order (BBuyticket) of the same type.
My problem is how to select the previous order (ABuyticket)
Pls note: ABuyticket & BBuyticket are global variables
