Thread: Check for closed orders (and some .csv-stuff)

I'm attempting to write a snippet that checks if a new trade shut, and if that is true it will export some worth.

My code looks like this:

Inserted Code datetime current=0; Inserted Code #91;abandoned #93;complete = OrdersTotal(); #91;abandoned #93;if(complete gt; 0) current = CurTime(); if(current! = CurTime()) FILE_WRITE #91;/abandoned #93; #91;/left#93;


I tried some distinct sulotions, both discovered here on the forum and at Meataqoutes homepage, but I can't get anyone to operate properly. My idea is the set a variabel with the date when a position is open (orderstotal gt; 0 ) and compare this to the current time ( when a position isn't available, the variabel is going to have an old worth an thereby is not equal to CurrentTime() ).

Instead, I get the ea to write to the document every volume-change once an position is available.

What have I overlooked?


And, another question - is it feasible to change, at a csv export to;?

Use this...

for(int I=0;ilt;OrdersHistoryTotal();I ){
if(OrderSelect(I,SELECT_BY_POS,MODE_HISTORY)){

to choose the order;

then write the file like this

int History, I;
History=FileOpen(History.txt, FILE_CSV|FILE_WRITE,'|');
for( I=0; ilt;OrdersHistoryTotal(); I )
FileWrite(History,I,TimeToStr(OrderOpenTime()[I]),OrderTicket()[I],ECT...);
FileClose(History);

Or even OrderPrint() should do the job also.

Thank you for your answer Kurka Fund.

The thing is simply that I want to write to the file each time an order is shut. The main reason is that I have some values I need to write out, such as high and low of the transaction for further MFE/MAE-analysis. As far as I am concerned theres no particular command for low or high during the transaction, similar to OrderClose()?

Therefore I need to check whether the order is shut. The logic I think is to compare TotalTrades together with the value previously, but I can�t get this to operate:--LRB-

Any other solution?

Ok .... I think that is what you are speaking about.

First pick the order...
PHP Code: <code><span style=�color: #000000�> <span style=�color: #0000BB�>
</span><span style=�color: #007700�>for(</span><span style=�color: #0000BB�>inti</span><span style=�color: #007700�>=</span><span style=�color: #0000BB�>0</span><span style=�color: #007700�>;</span><span style=�color: #0000BB�>I</span><span style=�color: #007700�>lt;</span><span style=�color: #0000BB�>OrdersHistoryTotal</span><span style=�color: #007700�>();</span><span style=�color: #0000BB�>I</span><span style=�color: #007700�> ){
if(</span><span style=�color: #0000BB�>OrderSelect</span><span style=�color: #007700�>(</span><span style=�color: #0000BB�>I</span><span style=�color: #007700�>,</span><span style=�color: #0000BB�>SELECT_BY_POS</span><span style=�color: #007700�>,</span><span style=�color: #0000BB�>MODE_HISTORY</span><span style=�color: #007700�>)){
</span><span style=�color: #0000BB�></span> </span> </code> Then Throughout the time the order was open ascertain the large and high values...

PHP Code: <code><span style=�color: #000000�> <span style=�color: #0000BB�>intOrderOpenbar</span><span style=�color: #007700�>=</span><span style=�color: #0000BB�>iBarShift</span><span style=�color: #007700�>(</span><span style=�color: #0000BB�>Symbol</span><span style=�color: #007700�>(),</span><span style=�color: #0000BB�>0</span><span style=�color: #007700�>,</span><span style=�color: #0000BB�>OrderOpenTime</span><span style=�color: #007700�>());
</span><span style=�color: #0000BB�>intOrderClosebar</span><span style=�color: #007700�>=</span><span style=�color: #0000BB�>iBarShift</span><span style=�color: #007700�>(</span><span style=�color: #0000BB�>Symbol</span><span style=�color: #007700�>(),</span><span style=�color: #0000BB�>0</span><span style=�color: #007700�>,</span><span style=�color: #0000BB�>OrderCloseTime</span><span style=�color: #007700�>());

</span><span style=�color: #0000BB�>doubleHighPoint</span><span style=�color: #007700�>=</span><span style=�color: #0000BB�>High</span><span style=�color: #007700�>#91;</span><span style=�color: #0000BB�>iHighest</span><span style=�color: #007700�>(</span><span style=�color: #0000BB�>Symbol</span><span style=�color: #007700�>(),</span><span style=�color: #0000BB�>0</span><span style=�color: #007700�>,</span><span style=�color: #0000BB�>MODE_HIGH</span><span style=�color: #007700�>,</span><span style=�color: #0000BB�>OrderOpenbar</span><span style=�color: #007700�>,</span><span style=�color: #0000BB�>OrderClosebar</span><span style=�color: #007700�>)#93;;
</span><span style=�color: #0000BB�>doubleLowPoint</span><span style=�color: #007700�>=</span><span style=�color: #0000BB�>Low</span><span style=�color: #007700�>#91;</span><span style=�color: #0000BB�>iLowest</span><span style=�color: #007700�>(</span><span style=�color: #0000BB�>Symbol</span><span style=�color: #007700�>(),</span><span style=�color: #0000BB�>0</span><span style=�color: #007700�>,</span><span style=�color: #0000BB�>MODE_LOW</span><span style=�color: #007700�>,</span><span style=�color: #0000BB�>OrderOpenbar</span><span style=�color: #007700�>,</span><span style=�color: #0000BB�>OrderClosebar</span><span style=�color: #007700�>)#93;;
</span><span style=�color: #0000BB�></span> </span> </code> Then yuo just write the values to the file like you were. . Hope this helps
Or you can just add it to your order exit purpose... but I think it would work best as a seperate function.
