Hey great. Thanks. 
Except I think it's doing something else. Because I closed out all the charts and started over, but it did it again! I think it's because I'm communicating between the Profit Monitor and the EA I'm using it with with a global. And, although the Profit Monitor is no longer open, the EA's (multiple versions) are communicating with each other because of this. I'm only resetting the global to "false" when the EA first initializes but, the EA has a Close All function itself, that is contingent upon its value, so I suspect this may be what's causing it. Will have a look anyway ...

For anyone interested, I have a reasonable copy of this working. I'm not going to attach it here, but am attaching it to the original post. Everything appears to be working as it should (deletes and close orders are super fast), except it's a bit buggy on the Profit Monitor EA side. No problem whatsoever with the "PM_Script" EA. Yes, that means I am using two EA's. At first I had the second EA setup as a script, but it wasn't closing and deleting the orders. However, all the variables were being passed and the "auto-refresh" worked without a hitch. So, I don't know what the problem is? And, as soon as I converted the script into an EA (basically put it in the EA folder) it worked immediately.
But, neither does that mean it won't work as a script. For there are standard MetaQuotes scripts in the scripts folder, used specifically for closing and deleting orders so, I think we are speaking of something that's possible.
Have included both files below, if anyone would like to take a stab at it. Thanks.
