i work with 1 open Position and with pending order
Now is the problem at the same time is only 1 pending order open, that correct
but when the pending order buy a position, than creat my EA still pending orders.

I would like if the EA has purchased an Position, then the pending orders are no longer generated.
Is that possible?

Not possible with the current version. In the next version we will have an option that tells you the number of open positions so you will be able to create that trading condition.

Hi molanisfx

Can you Kindly assist with the following.

Im Using MSB Version 3.1

But I feel stuck, can you please help.

Im having the same issue with Pending Orders, Every time a Condition is true it will open another pending order over and over, also when a position is open.

I would like my EA to do the following.

- Do not open another pending order if one already exist, when all Conditions are True on any tick.

- Do not Open Pending Order if a Position is open, Buy or Sell on any tick.

Note: I have the maximum number of positions set to 1.

The BUYP function is a very important factor with my trading strategy.

Thanks in Advance.

Same behavior as described before. The position counter is independent for open and pending orders. After a pending order becomes a market order is not counted as a pending order. The next release will bring some function that will help you to do what you want. Unfortunately the development has been really complex and is taking more than expected
