Is it possible to close all positions on mt4?

Quoting CodersGuru
Here's my CloseAll script (Version 2.01 - 22-July-2011) // Set the optoin prameter to the type of clsoing you want: // 0- Close all (instant and pending orders) (Default) // 1- Close all instant orders // 2- Close all pending orders // 3- Close by the magic number // 4- Close by comment // 5- Close orders in profit // 6- Close orders in loss // 7- Close not today orders // 8- Close before day orders {file}
Hi, I wanted to close all OPEN positions once a certain P/l ($) is reached or once a certain pips is reached or once a certain % of profits in relation to account balance (Total pips or Total profits of Open Trades).

For 1st option, eg pips=1000 (so script will close ALL opened trades when TOTAL pips=>1000pips)
2nd option, eg profit=$500 (script will close ALL opened trades when TOTAL P/L$ for these trades => $500)
3rd option, eg, profit%=2. Calculation is each trade P/L ($)/account balance/100. Thus when trade's P/L=$100 and acct balance = $5000, thats 2%, so close this trade. The script will just go thru each and every open trade and close it automatically. Its become an EA but just doesnt trade
As far as I know, there is no such thing as instant closing on Meta 4. The script or EA will place all trades in to a que and execute them on their turn. The orders will get closed but not instantly and it may be that by the time all open positions closed, you may have partial profit or a l loss at the end of closing process.

Rahi, I believe so.

Do you know if I have 10 open trades, and want to close all, which option will close all of them faster?
1. Use CloseAll script or EA
or
2. Set all trades to have same SL target or TP target?

best rgds,
Setting up SL and TP Targets of all trades will give you an advantage of the hard close option. While using EA to close will have a limit order application and on Market hit will be an open order. If you only have 10 orders to worry, then the execution time may not differ significantly, but the use of SL and TP will definately give you the asking price. Have you ever though of using API ? API will have a low latency rate compare to Framed Meta 4 order flow.

Hi everyone,
I have a problem closing all position by the click of the button I've created. Can someone please help me?
I just started coding... Here is what I have:

NABtnState=ObjectGet("BtnCloseAll",OBJPROP_STATE);
bool close;
if(ObjectGet("btnCloseAll",OBJPROP_STATE))
{
ObjectSet("btnCloseAll",OBJPROP_STATE,0);

for(int i=OrdersTotal()-1;i>=0;i--)
{
OrderSelect(i,SELECT_BY_POS,MODE_TRADES);
if(OrderType()==OP_BUY)
{
close=OrderClose(OrderTicket(),OrderLots(),MarketInfo(OrderSymbol(),MODE_BID),3,Green);
RefreshRates();
}
if(OrderType()==OP_SELL)
{
close=OrderClose(OrderTicket(),OrderLots(),MarketInfo(OrderSymbol(),MODE_ASK),3,Green);
RefreshRates();
i=0;
}

}
Thank you!

Can somebody pse help me with the following ea, when i drag it onto the chart, nothing happens:

{
OrderSelect(cc,SELECT_BY_POS);
if ({TimeCurrent() - OrderOpenTime() >= (TradesWillExpireMins*60)} && OrderMagicNumber()==MagicNumber) - THIS IS THE LINE 1529 with the ERROR
{
if (ShowAlerts) Alert("Trade expiry time has been reached, so a;; baslet trades were closed");
CloseBasket=true;//This will force basket trade closure on the next tick
return;
}

ERROR message when I compiled it:


1.'TimeCurrent' - constant expression required Multi purpose trade manager.mq4 1529 15
2.'{' - unexpected token Multi purpose trade manager.mq4 1529 14

thank you
Inserted Code
if ({TimeCurrent() - OrderOpenTime() >= (TradesWillExpireMins*60)} && OrderMagicNumber()==MagicNumber)

Why do you have the {} in there. removing them may help

Can anyone help code a script that closes trades (live and pending) of specified pairs only (pair set on script properties) without interfering with trades of other pairs

Also, another script that closes
-buy trades only (live and pending)
-sell trades only (live and pending)
Hey guys. I have been searching a similar script for few weeks and could not be able to find exactly what I want.

I want a script(or whatever) to close my all open orders (buy and sell together or can be set one or other) and my pending orders WHEN the PRICE hits a certain target which i set like 1.09500.

I found some scripts doing what I want with target pips or profit targets but none of them was triggered with the price itself.

I hope someone knows how to do it. Thank you for helping.

with this ea you specify a signal pair and exit price and the ea will close trades when that price is reached. not sure if it will work globally, if not then make sure to use magic numbers that are the same as magic numbers used in ea

The .ex4 file on that topic does not respond. I installed it like other indicators, when I add it in the chart nothing happens. Am I doing something wrong or its broken?

choose EURUSD as signal pair and 1.08876 as the exit price and all pairs will be closed when eurusd reaches that price. maybe it only closes trades with same magic number i'm not sure
hi guys, i am looking for way to close all trades open. (without dependent on "autotrading" setting on mt4. Is there a way? because i run some trading EAs which require me to keep autotrading open. So i am thinking may be someone can create script on "chart" perhaps a one click-thru button type where i click n all trades get closed within seconds. is this possible? thanks
