Hi all,

I was interrested in this forum because I need an opposite trading position.

I am currently working on the sample martingale available in the C-Algo.

Below I have pasted the coding for this sample. In bold, "a new order of the same type (Buy / Sell) is created. I want it to be of the opposite type. Any input on this please?

Thanks!

//
//    The "Sample Martingale cBot" creates a random Sell or Buy order. If the Stop loss is hit, a new 
//    order of the same type (Buy / Sell) is created with double the Initial Volume amount. The cBot will 
//    continue to double the volume amount for  all orders created until one of them hits the take Profit. 
//    After a Take Profit is hit, a new random Buy or Sell order is created with the Initial Volume amount.
