Deleting Multiple Orders

New comment
 
I'm wanting to delete 3 orders and replace them if the below is true... I'm doing something wrong though as it is not deleting all 3 open pending orders and replacing them all with new "NewBuyOrder"... Can anyone help? Thanks!

     for(PositionIndex1 = TotalNumberOfOrders1 - 1; PositionIndex1 >= 0 ; PositionIndex1 --)  //  <-- for loop to loop through all Orders . .   COUNT DOWN TO ZERO !
       {
       if( ! OrderSelect(PositionIndex1, SELECT_BY_POS, MODE_TRADES) ) continue;   // <-- if the OrderSelect fails advance the loop to the next PositionIndex
         if( OrderMagicNumber() == MagicNumber1 && MagicNumber2 && MagicNumber3  // <-- does the Order's Magic Number match our EA's magic number ? 
         && OrderSymbol() == Symbol()           // <-- does the Order's Symbol match the Symbol our EA is working on ? 
         && ( OrderType() == OP_BUYSTOP ) ) 
                {  
                   if(BuyStopPrice - OrderStopLoss() > Point / 2. )

                        {
                        Stored_BuyPrice = OrderOpenPrice();
                        DeleteOrder = OrderDelete(OrderTicket());
                        if(DeleteOrder != TRUE) Print("Buy Delete Order Failed = ",GetLastError(), " On: ", OrderSymbol());
                        if(DeleteOrder==True)Print("Buy Order Deleted = ", OrderTicket(), " On: ", OrderSymbol());
                        }

                   if(OpenOrdersThisPair(Symbol())<3 && DeleteOrder==True && H1_Buy_Touch == "H1 Buy Touch" && LotSize_Buy - minlot > - Point)// If there are no open orders = place a new order.
                        {
                        int NewBuyOrder1 = OrderSend(Symbol(),OP_BUYSTOP,LotSize_Buy,Stored_BuyPrice,3,BuyStopPrice,btp1,NULL,MagicNumber1,0,Green);
                        int NewBuyOrder2 = OrderSend(Symbol(),OP_BUYSTOP,LotSize_Buy,Stored_BuyPrice,3,BuyStopPrice,btp2,NULL,MagicNumber2,0,Green);
                        int NewBuyOrder3 = OrderSend(Symbol(),OP_BUYSTOP,LotSize_Buy,Stored_BuyPrice,3,BuyStopPrice,btp3,NULL,MagicNumber3,0,Green);
                        }   
                 }      
         }

Take the OrderSend() out of the loop . . .  adding in new orders is,  I think,  confusing the situation.  Remember what you need to do inside the loop,  then do it outside the loop.
 

Thanks RaptorUK.

 Hmmm... Hasn't done the trick. I'm placing Prints all over the place to figure it out with no luck so far. As I have 3 pending orders, will the above code (from what you can see) cut it in terms of deleting all 3 open orders? 

 

     for(PositionIndex1 = TotalNumberOfOrders1 - 1; PositionIndex1 >= 0 ; PositionIndex1 --)  //  <-- for loop to loop through all Orders . .   COUNT DOWN TO ZERO !
       {
       if( ! OrderSelect(PositionIndex1, SELECT_BY_POS, MODE_TRADES) ) continue;   // <-- if the OrderSelect fails advance the loop to the next PositionIndex
         if( OrderMagicNumber() == MagicNumber1 && MagicNumber2 && MagicNumber3  // <-- does the Order's Magic Number match our EA's magic number ? 
         && OrderSymbol() == Symbol()           // <-- does the Order's Symbol match the Symbol our EA is working on ? 
         && ( OrderType() == OP_BUYSTOP ) ) 
                {  
                   if(BuyStopPrice - OrderStopLoss() > Point / 2. )

                        {
                        Stored_BuyPrice = OrderOpenPrice();
                        DeleteOrder = OrderDelete(OrderTicket());
                        if(DeleteOrder != TRUE) Print("Buy Delete Order Failed = ",GetLastError(), " On: ", OrderSymbol());
                        if(DeleteOrder==True)Print("Buy Order Deleted = ", OrderTicket(), " On: ", OrderSymbol());
                        }
 
is this line correct?
 if( OrderMagicNumber() == MagicNumber1 && MagicNumber2 && MagicNumber3
as it looks to me as if it was saying:
 if( OrderMagicNumber() == MagicNumber1) if( MagicNumber2) if( MagicNumber3)

which are true/false, true, true

while you may want to say:

 if( OrderMagicNumber() == MagicNumber1 || OrderMagicNumber()== MagicNumber2 || OrderMagicNumber()== MagicNumber3 )
dunno if that's what's happening, hope this helps
 
update: this has done something! Will report back in a minute.

 if( OrderMagicNumber() == MagicNumber1 || OrderMagicNumber()== MagicNumber2 || OrderMagicNumber()== MagicNumber3 )
 
That's sorted it Xavilin - thank you very much for your help and time!!!
