OrderTicket function

This function returns the ticker of the order/position selected by the OrderSelect() function.

   int err;
   if (OrderType() == OP_BUY)
     {
       // long position
       if ((Bid-OrderOpenPrice())>=(TrailingStop*Point))
         {
           // place Stop Loss
           if (OrderModify(OrderTicket(), OrderOpenPrice(), Bid-TrailingStop*Point,
                                    OrderTakeProfit(), 0))
             Print("#", OrderTicket(),": trailing stop ", Bid-TrailingStop*Point);
           else
             {
              err = GetLastError(); 
              Print("#", OrderTicket(),": trailing stop error ", err);
             }
         }
     }
   else
     {
       // short position
       if ((OrderOpenPrice()-Ask)>=(TrailingStop*Point))
         {
           // place Stop Loss
           if (OrderModify(OrderTicket(), OrderOpenPrice(), Ask+TrailingStop*Point,
                                    OrderTakeProfit(), 0))
             Print("#", OrderTicket(),": trailing stop ", Ask+TrailingStop*Point);
           else
             {
              err = GetLastError(); 
              Print("#", OrderTicket(),": trailing stop error ", err);
             }
         }
     }

In this example we use the OrderTicket() function:

   int OrderTicket()
