I know that it is not obvious, but topics concerning MT4 and MQL4 have their own section.
In future please post in the correct section.
I will move your topic to the MQL4 and Metatrader 4 section.
they get deleted normally
try this :
void ClosePendings(string symbol) { int st=OrdersTotal()-1; for(int t=st;t>=0;t--) { bool sel=OrderSelect(t,SELECT_BY_POS,MODE_TRADES); if(sel) { if(symbol==OrderSymbol()&&OrderType()>=2&&OrderType()<=5) { bool del=OrderDelete(OrderTicket(),clrBlack); continue; } } } }

Hi Folks,
Some of the functions I have used for years are no longer working in the MT4 platform! For example, I have used this function for years to delete pending orders, and it has stopped working:
void ClosePendingOrders(int type = 7, string symbol = "X")
{
// type = 7 - Close All Pending Orders; else set type to OrderType() to be deleted (2=BL, 3=SL, 4=BS, 5=SS)
if(symbol == "X") symbol = Symbol();
for(int a = 0; a < OrdersTotal(); a++)
{
if(OrderSelect(a, SELECT_BY_POS, MODE_TRADES) && OrderSymbol() == symbol && OrderMagicNumber() == MagNum &&
OrderType() > 1 && (type == 7 || OrderType() == type))
{
while(!Testing && IsTradeContextBusy()) Sleep(10);
bool del = OrderDelete(OrderTicket());
if(!del) Alert("Trade Delete Error: "+ErrorDescription(GetLastError()));
else a--;
}
}
}
Has anyone else experienced a problem? It seems to have com about since my MT4 platforms updated to Build 1280 over the weekend!
