Why does my EA miss the next bar after closing a trade?

sI have been experimenting with various self-constructed EAs, but I cannot seem to get them to open at the beginning of a new bar (whatever time frame I use), after a trade has closed.

Could someone point me in the right direction to where I could obtain the necessary code, so that a new trade opens in the bar after closing the previous trade, or explain why I’m having this problem?

Thanks in advance.

int last_bar=0;



int start()

{

if(last_bar != iTime(Symbol(),0,0) )

{

last_bar = iTime(Symbol(),0,0); // update flag

//do your stuff here....

//.....

}

....
