Hiya,

For this, you can use the comment variable in your pending open block, then once the order is identified with a comment, you can use it in a condition.

Hope this helps.

Hi,

After looking to your example, your idea could be easily achieved simply using position variables (Buy001, Sell001) you can use several pending open orders and identify them with position variables then you manage these positions accordingly: Once Buy001 is filled then cancel Sell001, you can also add additional position variables that identifies your 'pending order' block (I assume that you'll set another calculation conditions if you'll work with many entries). The comment variable use here is not that functional, you can delete it.

If you need any help, please right down your conditions and send us your strategy and we'll do our best to help you.

Thanks

This is one part of my strategy which i m trying build,
This should work like:

If pending orders buy001 and sell001 not exist - set pending orders buy001 and sell001 10pips from actual price,
if buy001 is open - cancel sell001 and
if sell001 open - cancel buy001

this is only one part of strategy, but i dont have idea how obtain what i want.

You wrote: "you can use several pending open orders and identify them with position variables then you manage these positions accordingly: Once Buy001 is filled then cancel Sell001"

I dont know which variables in block "if" i should use, for exampel: i want something like that: if buy001 is open, cancel sell001, i tried set condition - in block "if" i used in peremetr 1 - buy001 --- position amount and "1" in parametr 2 but this not working. It is possible to You build mini strategy with guidelines: if pending order buy001 not exist, set it 10 pips above actual price, and if buy001 is open, set buy002 10 pips above actual price?

Thank You for help
Regards
