calculate candles after pending order

New comment
 
Hello everyone, I've been trying to create a code to count candles from the last pending order, so that after x candles of the pending order, it automatically cancels.
However, I didn't get to the calculation, could someone give me a tip?

  • If you show your attempts and describe your problem clearly, you will most probably receive an answer from the community.
  • If you do not want to learn to code, that is not a problem. You can either look at the Codebase if something free already exists, or in the Market for paid products (also sometimes free).
  • Finally, you also have the option to hire a programmer in the Freelance section.

1. First add a checkmark when your pending order is triggered, e.g. 

bool executed =true;
// Find candle where order executed
int shift = iBarShift(NULL,0,iTime(NULL,0,1));

then start counting 

int candle = 5; // lets say you want to exit at 5th candle from when order is executed

then run a for loop as per your requirement to close order

Why not set expiration date?

datetime expiry=TimeCurrent()+bars_count*PeriodSeconds();
