Maybe it's just me, but I don't understand anything.

I would understand if you wanted to close a pending sell order after opening a pending buy order, and vice versa.

Note: I have not looked at the code without first understanding what it is intended to do.

 
i just want to know how to close/cancel a buy limit. i can place a buy limit at mt5 but cant close/cancel the buy limit.
