are you wanting it to close every single open order.... even those not associated with the ea..... even those you might have manually opened.....h
to trade and code, keep both simple... no call to impress....h

yes, i want every single open order by EA close. my EA is on VPS, so no manual order, just the one opened by the EA. Just for testing purposes for now I open order manually, if this closeall EA close order or orders that were open by another EA then that is great, no further fixing is require.
I have a EA that open trade often: http://codebase.mql4.com/5900 .maybe i'll test that against closeall EA

thanks

I never writing a post but I've been reading this forum for many months, is the best, do not write because my English is not good, Sorry my English.
Wonder if someone can help me.
How to close all opened positions at specific price.
a programmer can create a script to close 15 or 20 position while at a specified price? for example I want to close all my positions at $1.2700.

I use the method below, you will need to use the magic number if you are using different EAs on the same symbol. If you use a single EA on multiple symbols it works fine.
Cheers


void cleanUp()
{

Alert("Clean Up="+Symbol());
for(int x=OrdersTotal()-1;x>=0;x--)
{
if(OrderSelect(x,SELECT_BY_POS,MODE_TRADES)==false) break;
if( OrderSymbol()==Symbol())//&& OrderMagicNumber()== MAGICMA)
{
if(OrderType()==OP_BUY)
{
if(OrderClose(OrderTicket(),OrderLots(),Bid,3,Red)==false)
{
Print(GetLastError());
}
}
if(OrderType()==OP_SELL)
{
if(OrderClose(OrderTicket(),OrderLots(),Ask,3,Red)==false)
{
Print(GetLastError());
}
}
if(OrderType()==OP_SELLSTOP || OrderType()==OP_BUYSTOP)
{

if(OrderDelete(OrderTicket())==false)
{
Print(GetLastError());
}
}
}

}

}

whitearrow thanks!

I need the EA close all trades at a specific time (day=ALL, hour:minutes) every days.
For example: the end of a session.

you could use (nearly) any of my mod. eas around here, set sendlongtrades and sendshorttrades=false and set the dailyclosinghour, pls. use forumsearch ...
PM me with coding requests and I'll probably put you on my ignore list

{quote} whitearrow thanks! I need the EA close all trades at a specific time (day=ALL, hour:minutes) every days. For example: the end of a session.

ok try this;

extern int period=1440; // Period of your choice

int bars=iBars(Symbol(),period); //Bar count of that period

void OnTick()
{
//---
if(bars!= iBars(Symbol(),period) ) //if a new Bar is detected
{
cleanUp(); //Clean up all trade
bars=iBars(Symbol(),period); //set bars = new bar count


}

}

You could also add a check for exact time as in

if(Hour()==16 && Min()==55 && DayOfWeek()==5)
{
cleanUp();
}

Hope that helps
