Returns 'True' value if the trade is open, 'False' if the trade is closed.
It makes sense to only check the trades of the open position, for other positions 'False' is always returned.
Usage
PosTradeIsOpen(PosAgo, TradeNumber)
Where:
- PosAgo - a numerical expression, specifying the position:
- 0 - open position;
- 1 - one position back (the last position closed);
- 2 - two positions back, etc.
- TradeNumber - a numerical expression, specifying the number of trade (zero-based).
Notes
This function can only be used in signals.
To retrieve the total number of trades in specified position use PosTradeCount.
Example
PosTradeIsOpen(0, 1);
Will return True for the second trade of the open position, if this trade is opened (haven't close order).
