how do I close all pending trades? (must work in Train/Test as well)

Code:

for (open_trades)
  if (TradeIsPending) 
    exitTrade(ThisTrade);

Yes, that should work.

Having all pending trades closed as scripted above, shouldn't NumPendingTrades return zero?

Code:

Hedge = 4; 
printf("\nBefore deleting, NumPendingTotal==%d",NumPendingTotal);
for (open_trades) {
  if (TradeIsPending) {
    exitTrade(ThisTrade);
  }
}
printf("\nAfter deleting, NumPendingTotal==%d",NumPendingTotal);

Output:

Code:

Before deleting, NumPendingTotal==4
After deleting, NumPendingTotal==4

(Number four just like hedge mode ist only a coincidence)

Anybody? Shouldn't NumPendingTotal decrease immediately after closing a pending trade using exitTrade() ?

I don't think so. Global variables are updated before the run() function, not within a TMF.
