Can anybody stop/fix this EA from hedging in the opposite position. By fix I mean don't try to BUY when you have a Short position. This EA was meant to add to its BUY position at times but not hedge in the opposite direction.

Not sure of terminology, does hedge mean enter opposite position or can it mean add to present position ??

thanks

Hi

you can use/adapt code from Marylin http://www.stevehopwoodforex.com/phpBB3 ... f=5&t=1448

ex. for sell

Code: Select all

if(CountBuys(Symbol(),MagicNumber)==0)
{
/... your sell code
}

Code: Select all

if(CountSells(Symbol(),MagicNumber)==0)
{
/... your buy code
}

Code: Select all

int CountBuys(string strSymbol, int nMagic)
{
	int nOrderCount=0;
	for (int i=OrdersTotal()-1 ; i>=0 ; i--)
	{
		if (!OrderSelect(i,SELECT_BY_POS)) continue;
		if (OrderType() == OP_BUY)
		if (OrderMagicNumber() == nMagic)
		if (OrderSymbol() == strSymbol)
		nOrderCount++;
	}
	return(nOrderCount);
}



int CountSells(string strSymbol, int nMagic)
{
	int nOrderCount=0;
	for (int i=OrdersTotal()-1 ; i>=0 ; i--)
	{
		if (!OrderSelect(i,SELECT_BY_POS)) continue;
		if (OrderType() == OP_SELL)
		if (OrderMagicNumber() == nMagic)
		if (OrderSymbol() == strSymbol)
		nOrderCount++;
	}
	return(nOrderCount);
}
Cheers
