Since we started documenting this EA in this series from the very first article Developing a trading Expert Advisor from scratch, it has undergone various changes and improvements while maintaining the same on-chart order system model. It is very simple and functional. However, in many situations, it is not suitable for real trading. Of course, we could add some things to the original system so that we have some information about orders, both open and pending. But this would turn our code into a Frankenstein which would ultimately make a real nightmare out of the improvement process. Even if you have your own methodology, it will be lost over time as the code gets too big and too complicated. So, we need to create a completely different system in terms of the order model we use. At the same time, it should be easy for the trader to understand, while providing all the information we need to work safely.
