Please help.

Can someone explain why this function does not close all open orders at once?

//-------------------------------------------------------------------+
int CloseOrders(int mn) // procedure to close all orders
{
int total = OrdersTotal();

for (int cnt = total-1 ; cnt >= 0 ; cnt--)
{
OrderSelect(cnt,SELECT_BY_POS,MODE_TRADES);
if (OrderMagicNumber() == mn && OrderSymbol()==Symbol())
{
if (OrderType()==OP_BUY)
{
OrderClose(OrderTicket(),OrderLots(),Bid,3,Green);
}

if (OrderType()==OP_SELL)
{
OrderClose(OrderTicket(),OrderLots(),Ask,3,Red);
}
if (OrderType()==OP_BUYSTOP)
{
OrderDelete(OrderTicket());
}

if (OrderType()==OP_SELLSTOP)
{
OrderDelete(OrderTicket());
}
}
}
return(0);
}

Try this

void CloseOrders() 
{
   for(int i=OrdersTotal()-1;i>=0;i--)
     {
      if(OrderSelect(i,SELECT_BY_POS))
          {
          if(OrderType()==0)
             OrderClose(OrderTicket(),OrderLots(),NormalizeDouble(MarketInfo(OrderSymbol(),MODE_BID),Digits),5);
          if(OrderType()==1)
             OrderClose(OrderTicket(),OrderLots(),NormalizeDouble(MarketInfo(OrderSymbol(),MODE_ASK),Digits),5);
          if(OrderType()>1)
             OrderDelete(OrderTicket());
          }
     }
}

try this

Thanks, I'll give it a try.

Don't you need return at the end of the function?

Is return at the end of the function unnecessary?

No, I don't.

The compiler won't accept quite basic things, help me please!

int start()

int f;f=1;

It swears like this-

'int' - semicolon expected C:\Orderly couture\expertsÃärson.mq4 (38, 4)

'f' - expression on global scope not allowed C:³³'s prints³'s printsó's borders.mq4 (38, 10)

int start()

int f;f=1;

It swears like this-

Who's going to put the brackets in? Pushkin? And he's right to swear, too bad he doesn't call you names )))

int start()
{
int f;f=1;
}
