Thread: Help! - How to not place new order too closed to already opened price?

    How do I check through opened price?
    I tried the following, but doesn't work.



    If (illness)....



    For(bcnt=btotal-1; bcnt gt;= 0; bcnt--)
    {
    OrderSelect(bcnt, SELECT_BY_POS, MODE_TRADES);
    if(OrderType()lt;=OP_SELL OrderSymbol()==Symbol())
    {
    if(OrderType()==OP_BUY)
    {
    if((Ask gt; OrderOpenPrice() (Point*OrderDist)) || (Ask lt; OrderOpenPrice() - (Point*OrderDist)))
    {
    Buy();


    ....

    You have got the buy function in the loop?

    You probably wish to iterate through the loop and assess all orders to see if ANY are too close. Then test whether its all great outside the loop buy (outside the loop)

    bool tooclose=false;
    for(bcnt=btotal-1; bcnt gt;= 0; bcnt--)

    OrderSelect(bcnt, SELECT_BY_POS, MODE_TRADES);
    if(OrderType()lt;=OP_SELL OrderSymbol()==Symbol())

    if(OrderType()==OP_BUY)

    if((Ask lt; OrderOpenPrice() (Stage*OrderDist)) (Ask gt; OrderOpenPrice() - (Stage*OrderDist))) tooclose = true;




    //outside of loop
    if (! tooclose) Buy(); else Alert (oops too close for buy);
