The algorithm is as follows: calculate how many positions BUY and SELL are available. Depending on the trading signal, first close the opposite positions.

Example code from the adviser Four Timeframes (here we close all SELL positions)

            int      count_buys           = 0;
            double   volume_buys          = 0.0;
            double   volume_biggest_buys  = 0.0;
            int      count_sells          = 0;
            double   volume_sells         = 0.0;
            double   volume_biggest_sells = 0.0;
            CalculateAllPositions(count_buys,volume_buys,volume_biggest_buys,
                                  count_sells,volume_sells,volume_biggest_sells);
            if(InpCloseOpposite)
              {
               if(count_sells>0)
                 {
                  double level;
                  if(FreezeStopsLevels(level))
                     ClosePositions(POSITION_TYPE_SELL,level);
                  return;
                 }
              }
