How to close an existing order?

Sudhanshu Gupta 2015.08.29 04:29

If I have placed a BUY/SELL order and set takeprofit/stoploss for that order, but I want to close that order before either condition meets, how do I close it programmatically?

Thank you in advance.

Hey,

Order Send is used to place an order.

How can I use OrderSend to close an existing order? Can you give an example.

Thank you
