[ A tough one ] Check if there’s an active trade
24 Apr 2024, 07:15
can someone help me to fix my code please ? i want it to check if the any of my stop orders have been activated if yes, then delete the other order that is not active but it just skips the checking part and delete both of my orders
var buyOrder = PlaceStopOrder(TradeType.Buy, SymbolName, 1, highestHigh, "Buy Position", SL, TP, null, "", false);
var sellOrder = PlaceStopOrder(TradeType.Sell, SymbolName, 1, lowestLow, "Sell Position", SL, TP, null, "", false);
{
if (buyOrder != null || sellOrder != null)
{
foreach(var order in PendingOrders)
{
order.Cancel();
}
}

Hi there,
If you are checking if the orders have been filled, you should use the PendingOrders.Filled event instead. You should cancel the remaining orders only when the order is filled.

I’ve figured it out alread, now I have a different problem, do you have an idea how to write a code to check if a trade hits TP ?
