Arrays for order management problem

If i use an array to manage my orders by position it seems to work great for stoplosses, because it uses the whole order. If, however, I close part of the order it doesn't seem to flag it - as if the elements are shifting index positions within the array.

For example, using an array as a boolean grid to flag order changes:

static bool my_array[][2];
ArrayResize(my_array,OrdersTotal()); //sets array size according to orders count
/*my_array[order#][]
my_array[][0] = set stoploss 1?
my_array[][1] = set stoploss 2?
my_array[][2] = profit taken? */

Anyone experience this? BTW, with my broker I have to use OrderClose() to take partial profit - don't know if this is contributing to my issue or not.

Thanx in advance.

MT4's order indexing is done by postion. Accessing the orders on the server is done by position not ticket number. The indexing is always done from 0 to nOrders-1. If an order is closed or deleted, the count is reduced by 1 and the empty "slot" or index position is taken by the next higher position and all of the rest are shifted as well.

You seem to have deduced this already, so I am just confirming. I never keep track of orders in the manner you describe, so I really can't suggest a solution.

Thanks for the response CodeMeister, I thought originally that if I closed part of an order within a loop where i = order position I could assign my_array[i,2] == true; to flag it, but that didn't work so i tried to reinit. to zero with ArrayInitialize(my_array,0); then flag with my_array[i,2] == true;
but no luck - it keeps cycling the loop because the flag seems to be misplaced.
