Deleted order was not deleted?

[[Deleted]]

I have a question for OrderDelete(). It would be very appriciated if anyone could help me.

My code deletes the following pending order of OP_SELLSTOP:

>2009.07.05 15:55:34 2009.06.23 09:12 test GBPJPY,M1: delete #9 sell stop 0.10 GBPJPY at 154.10 sl: 164.10 tp: 152.99 ok

After then, executing the following code:

for(in cnt=0;cnt < OrdersTotal();cnt++){
  OrderSelect(cnt,SELECT_BY_POS);
  if(OrderType()==OP_SELLSTOP)||OrderType()==OP_BUYSTOP){
    OrderDelete(OrderTicket());
  }

}

and the result is the following:

>2009.07.05 15:56:53 2009.06.23 09:15 test GBPJPY,M1: OrderDelete error 4108

>2009.07.05 15:56:53 2009.06.23 09:15 test GBPJPY,M1: unknown ticket 9 for OrderDelete function

The question is why the deleted order is selected by OrderSelect().

Maybe I misunderstand the function, but I don't know.

I would like not to select deleted order in the case.

I'd recommend first of all, that you count DOWN in your loop rather than up.

Hi CB,

Thank you for the advice, I will try.

Meanwhile, I tried combination use of OrderCloseTime()==0 and this seemed good so far.

(But  I still don't know the underlying cause...)
