To be no longer a "newbie" you have to try,  and practice,  and fail,  and try again and learn.

Create a loop and loop through the open orders,  when you have just one pending order,  determine this by checking OrderType(),  you can OrderDelete() the remaining pending order.

You don't close pending orders, they aren't "open" . . .  you Delete them.

Actually I am not sure it would work in the case of pending orders BUT ;) it should because pending orders should be considered open orders, their just not sent yet. Give it a shot pro ;)

Also, your MetaEditor dictionary comes in handy sometimes. It'l treat ya' right. Hahaha! ;)

Simon,

I just placed a pending order in the market and noticed what you meant by NOT "open". The only options allowed by my MT4 terminal is to modify or delete the pending order. The option to close the order is not available (because it is not "open", its "pending"). Ah-ha! ;) Hahaha!

Hold on... Here comes the OrderDelete() function :)

er007,

Apologies for suggesting OrderCloseBy() function. I believe a more sensible ;) solution is to use a cycle to locate the position of the pending order to close, select the order's ticket number AND ;) then use the OrderDelete() function to close the desired pending order. Whew, wipin' sweat off my brow for that one. ;)

Thank you
