Modifying pending orders?

[adrianbialkowski]

Hi guys,

I'm stuck. I want to set up two pending orders and edit them every 5 seconds so they are 10 pips from the current market price but cannot find an option:

• to move the pending orders once they are set
• to modify the SL and TP of pending orders (there's only an option to modify the SL/TP of already opened trades, not the pending limits

Could any of you help me? Thank you

What about "Trailing pending orders"? https://fxdreema.com/demo/mt4-trailing-pending-orders

Hello, thank you for your answer.

Yes, it seems that is exactly what I was looking for and I copied the example you pasted but it still doesn't work.
It opens two orders but then nothing happens. I used the step of 2 pips

It would be great if the orders were changed every 2 pips for example OR every 2 seconds if it's possible.

Ok, I changed to work "On tick" and it seems to be working fine. Will test it tomorrow.

Another question though - when I use the "Terminate" command I get a pop up message on my MT4 that EA was terminated, is there some way to remove this notification?

Look at the settings of the block

Worked like a charm, amazing. Thank you!

Is there a way to make it edit the pending orders every X seconds though? I noticed tthat 'on tick' isn't quite stable, sometimes it edits them and sometimes it doesn't. It would be easier if I could just put 30 seconds or something and it would edit them automatically. I made one EA already with your tools and it had that feature but those were on positions already open, not on pending orders.

Thank you in advance

Hey Adrianbialkowski,

Move the block(s) to the "On Timer" section, then go to "Options -> Current Project Options -> Timer Event Period" to set the frequency.

Have fun!

There is "on Timer" as well and this runs on every X seconds, no matter if there are ticks or not. The problem is that this can't be backtested and you don't really need that accurate seconds, i guess.
Under "on Tick" you can try some of the blocks in "Time Filters". They are not that accurate because ticks are not accurate, but I think that "Once per seconds" can do the job
