maybe this will help. EA opens the maximum number of trades entered in total ("OnlyOne"), or the maximum number of trades entered in direction ("OneDir").
enum onoff {Ano=1,Ne=0}; extern onoff OnlyOne=Ano;//Pouze jeden obchod celkem extern onoff OneDir=Ano;//Pouze jeden obchod ve smeru extern int MaxTrades=1;//Max obchodu

Please do not show screenshots of code.
Copy and paste the code correctly, using the code button.
}} return(TotalTradesInTrend+OrdersTotal());
Magic number only allows an EA to identify its trades from all others. Using OrdersTotal/OrdersHistoryTotal (MT4) or PositionsTotal (MT5), directly and/or no Magic number/symbol filtering on your OrderSelect / Position select loop means your code is incompatible with every EA (including itself on other charts and manual trading.)

Hi there...
Please reshare your code?
I have figured it out.
Thanks though...

Good day,
I am trying to write a code that counts the number of trades that have been opened in a new trend. That is, if there is a trend (e.g. MA1 > MA2) the EA opens trades until the set number is reached, and then it stops and waits until there is a new trend. Then it starts counting again from 0.
I have written the code below. It is in 2 parts.
Part 1 - checks that MA has crossed recently, and it is therefore a new trend.
Part 2 - starts counting trades as soon as it is a new trend.
The code works to a certain extent - it counts trades that have been opened since the new trend - usually up to 2 or 3, but then it just stops counting and then continues opening more trades.
Please let me know what my mistake is.
NB: I am a beginner and wrote this by researching a lot, so any pointers would be greatly appreciated.
