I can't close an order

 

I'm writing a copy trading service


my code receive a signal and should execute it with OrderSend function

it opens the position normally without issue


but it does not close it , I give it the same attributes which used in opening it (but with reversed side(buy/sell))


inputs to open it

market > XYZ

volume > .01

side > buy


inputs to close it

market > XYZ

volume > .01

side > sell


the expected > is to close the opened one

what happens > it open a new position


what's missing ? , I have the ticket for the position and all the required info (but I found the docs here for closing the position is just by giving the same attributes with the reversed side) ( https://www.mql5.com/en/docs/constants/structures/mqltraderequest )


I see , there's OrderClose in MQL4 , but I write the script with MQL5
