Are You Experienced?
BC Brett:
Could someone experienced in using the function, OrderCloseBy(), please explain to me how it works exactly?

I've already done a search on this forum and on metaquotes.net for detailed information, but with no luck.
bool OrderCloseBy(int ticket, int opposite, color Color=CLR_NONE)
The obvious scenario is when the order that "ticket" refers to and the order that "opposite" refers to are both the same size - they both cancel eachother out completely.
But what happens when the sizes of the 2 orders are different?
1. An error code is generated and nothing is closed?
Or
2. The smaller sized order is closed (its ticket# is removed from the system) and the larger sized order (minus the size of the smaller order) stays open (its ticket# remains in the system)?
Or
3. Something else?IMHO the answer is number 2.
