Sure you can ... all orders currently open or pending are stored .. you can access it .. and then close it with something like this:

Inserted Code

for (int i = 0;i < OrdersTotal();i++) {

   // check there are trades available
   if(OrderSelect(i,SELECT_BY_POS,MODE_TRADES)==false) break;
   
   // check order type and close accordingly
   if(OrderType() == OP_BUY) {
      OrderClose(OrderTicket(),OrderLots(),Bid,3,White);
   } else if (OrderType() == OP_SELL) {
      OrderClose(OrderTicket(),OrderLots(),Ask,3,White);
   }

}

Best of luck.

You can quit and they won't care, but you will always know.

Hi,

I open buystop and sellstop at the same time.
When one is hit, I want to close the other one and let hit order to continue till TP or SL.

I try using the command like yours, but it close both buystop and sellstop.

Can help me with the command?

Ah, just check for a different order type, so if you have opened a sell order, you want to close all BUYLIMIT and BUYSTOP orders ... and of course vise versa.

You can quit and they won't care, but you will always know.

you may use it like this:

Inserted Code

for (int i = 0;i < OrdersTotal();i++) {
   // 1st level (opened order) Select
   OrderSelect(i,SELECT_BY_POS);
   string PairSym = OrderSymbol();

   if(OrderType() == OP_BUY) {
      for(int o = 0;o < OrdersTotal();o++) {
         if(OrderSymbol() != PairSym) continue;
      // 2nd level to select the pending opponent
         if(OrderType() == OP_SELLSTOP && OrderSymbol() == PairSym)
            OrderDelete(OrderTicket(),White);   
      }
   }
         
   if (OrderType() == OP_SELL) {
      for(o = 0;o < OrdersTotal();o++) {
         if(OrderSymbol() != PairSym) continue;
      // 2nd level to select the pending opponent
         if(OrderType() == OP_BUYSTOP && OrderSymbol() == PairSym)
            OrderDelete(OrderTicket(),White);   
      }
   }
}

Keep your hands up, and use your pant!
