Stuck with open orders on MT4 "Off Quotes"

I have no idea what I'm supposed to do here. SL isn't being hit, TP isn't being hit. I tried to manually close at market and it just keeps saying "Off Quotes". It's only demo but it's fucking annoying because my EA isn't opening new positions unless I run a modified version.

It says my connection is just fine, I checked server/account settings and it's correct. If I log out and try to close the position it gives a standard "No connection" error, so I don't think that's the problem. I can also open and close new positions with no problems. It also accumulates swap O_o. Mighty odd.

Anyone got any idea? Am I missing something ridiculously obvious here?

Is this Alpari by any chance?

Nope, MBT (stands for something with beach in it...).

Pipsgeek,

I have run into the same or similar issue when placing orders/updating them very frequently e.g. when using an infinite loop to place and update orders.

I was told that Metatrader can't keep up and orders get stuck this way and there is no solution for it. Sometimes the only way to get rid of such "off quotes" orders is to contact MBT and have them remove it.
It can also happen in a Live account when the order is actually executed in the market but Metatrader falls behind and think the order is still there. No way out other than contacting MBT and have them remove it. Restarting Metatrader or even your computer won't help.

I am trying to figure something out myself, but I agree it is frustrating.

Sorry I couldn't provide more of a solution.

Well you replied so that's already kind enough. I was getting used to staring at my margin level. It's annoying, but not worth contacting MBT over since it's only demo and I can change my magic numbers.

Something similar did happen (I forgot to limit open orders and an EA I was demo testing at the time decided that there were definately 40 buy signals at the same time) and I stopped the EA and started closing down all those trades and then MBT crashed. I closed the remainder but that 1 remained with the off quotes error. I figured it was a temporary issue with the server (hence the crash and such) but this open trade was here to stay and I have sort of gotten used to it.
