How to close open trades on Expert Removal?

New comment

Hi,

I have been trying to close any open trades from the DeInit function but it is returning that trading is already stopped. I  also tried to override ExpertRemove function but it says it is a system function. Anyone know how I can do this?

Thanks

Simply to ensure no trades are left open when an expert advisor is removed from a chart. This is helpful for live testing and also if dealing with multiple EA's, it removes the chance of any trades being left open.

You have to use OrderSend() or OrderSendAsync(), not CTrade.
