problem with array (two-dimensional)

Hi,

I've an array with 6 coloumns and 50 rows.
The coloumns include:

trade_arr[x][0]=OrderTicket();
trade_arr[x][1]=OrderStopLoss();
trade_arr[x][2]=OrderTakeProfit();
trade_arr[x][3]=OrderSymbol();
trade_arr[x][4]=OrderOpenPrice();

Now I wanna do this:
If EA starts,all available trades should be written to the Array. Every tick is checked if there are new available trades. They should be added to the array, if yes.
Problem: The EA does not work. The alert new commerce comes at each tick
for each open position.
I described string trade_arr[50][6]; as global variable,but it seems that the array is deleted after each tick.

Could be nice if There's somebody out there to check that...

Thanks,
Swen

Hey swen.... As it's coded , there is not anything between start() and the job .... So yes, it will do the job on every tick....

A frequent method is to count something, on your case here you could count the total orders.... If the count has changed since the last tick,

-- Now do the job....

Else

-- Now do nothing....

//--

When EA starts,all open transactions should be composed to the Array

this has me curious.... All of this information is stored/written currently .... Is there something special your doing with the array.... I can not tell from your code...h

I declared the array with Beginning() and now it works like That I need it...

If an alarm is issued by its different than the value, I would check the ticket.
