I don't think you can check for that directly, however, what you can try is:

1. compare the new SL price with the previous SL price
2. if they're not equal, return from the method
3. if they're still equal, then you know the SL hasn't changed.

why it crash?

Why don't you post the error message or a screen capture of the crash?

-Catch the creation of the new brick

When the “OnBar” event happens.

Or write your own in the “OnTick” method:

_currentIndex = Bars.OpenTimes.GetIndexByTime(Bars.OpenTimes.LastValue);

               if (_currentIndex != _previousIndex)
               {
               //Call your own OnBar method
                   OnBarForBot();
                   _previousIndex = _currentIndex;
               }

-Get the color of the last brick

Do you mean actual color? Or is what you really want to know whether the bar closed up or down?

I'll assume the latter since most bots/indicators don't care about actual colors - just check if the previous close price is > or < the previous open price.

if (Bars.ClosePrices.Last(1) > Bars.OpenPrices.Last(1))

   ///bullish bar

else

   ///bearish bar

What do you mean by “activated”? DO you mean when the order is actually executed? If so, just check the trade result:

 

TradeResult r = PlaceStopOrder(TradeType.Buy, SymbolName,  volumeInUnits, Symbol.Bid + 15);

if (r.IsSuccessful) {

////

}

 

I mean when the pending order turns into position. 

Then do what I suggested. If the trade result is successful, you know you have a position.

You've done this?

Doing it manually through folder paths as you suggested, might not always work because you might not get the right folder (if there's bee multiple updates) or the data might be in more than one location

If there's losing trades, you may want to consider leaving it as it is so you have to manually restart it. This does two things:

1. makes sure your account doesn't blow up if it keeps continuously losing more than 3 trades
2. gives you a chance to review the trades and what's happening.

If you really want it to start again the next day, you can try this:

1. reset the losing count to 0
2. keep track of the time. When your new day starts, allow the bot to proceed again. Something like this:

if (!allowTrades && Server.Time > 9am)

{

    allowTrades = true;

}

In your OnTick method:

if (allowTrades)

{

 ////rest of method

}

else

return;

and you'd have to update your code:

if (losercount == 3)

{

    allowTrades = false;

                            Stop();

}

Of course it's only doing buys. That's all you tell it to do. :-)

   private void OpenPosition(TradeType command)
        {
            ExecuteMarketOrder(TradeType.Buy, SymbolName, Volume, null, SL, TP);
        }

Just compile your bot without including the source code. That's how it is by default.

Your code is saying get the fractal value from the last bar, not the actual last fractal value.

If that's not the case, then you need to post more of your code so people can see what's going on.
