Hello moderators and friends,
I posted a question under this heading, but it might have been overlooked, (since the original author had their part answered) so I'm reposting it as a new subject. How can I write an EA to open multiple orders and close them independantly. Ex: go in on a buy, then a buy if conditions are met again, and then a sell. If you can't explain it in detail in english, (explaining things like "flag") then could you do an example with a basic Moving Average EA? I'm sorry, but I couldn't understand the answer given in the other topic. thanks! Samson |

Poll: Traders’ Estimate of the Mobile Terminal Unfortunately, there are no clear projections available at this moment about the future of the mobile trading. However, there are a lot of speculations surrounding this matter. In our attempt to resolve this ambiguity we decided to conduct a survey among traders to find out their opinion about our mobile terminals. Through the efforts of this survey, we have managed to established a clear picture of what our clients currently think about the product as well as their requests and wishes in future developments of our mobile terminals. |

You can use the Trading functions for this.
And you have to use magic numbers to open multiple orders. |

I'm sorry. The site you refered to is the one that I already posted the question
but people might have overlooked. As I said in that original post, I am not getting
it, and would appreciate more details like:
1) Do I have to change "CalculateCurrentOrders" function from basic Moving Average program? How? 2) Do I just add another "OrderSend" in my open and close section with a different magic number? 3) I'm still confused how the Start function part is supposed to look exactly. If someone doesn't want to answer these questions than could you just post an example with the Moving Average EA? thanks! Samson |

Opening and closing multiple orders on one EA is not as cut and dry as you might
like, and there are considerations. For instance, an EA attached to a particular
chart can only access data from that chart. Unless you're doing inverse/parallel
pair stuff, you probably won't get exactly what you're hoping for using this method.
Further, there is a strictly enforced 10 second delay between order functions.
For instance, if you open a ticket, you cannot open another ticket for 10 seconds.
Some things for you to think about anyway...
