Thread: Closing a pending stop order when order in other direction is opened

I'm working on an ea that places both a BuyStop and SellStop order. I need a piece of code that will close one of the pending orders if an order in the other direction is filled.

For example: A BuyStop order is placed 10 pips above current price, and a SellStop order 10 pips below current price. The market goes up and the pending BuyStop order is filled. At that point, I want the SellStop order removed.

Thanks in advance for the help

Hello!
Just go with for loop through all orders and find out if buy is opened then delete sell pending order (you have to delete and not close pending order) else if sell is opened delete buy pending order.
