I used this code: for (open_trades) { exitTrade(ThisTrade); // printf("trade geschlossen"); break; } However, this does not always close a trade (The message is still printed). Why is that?

Without seeing the rest of the script, could it be what's bit me in the past? open_trades is a bit mis-named. It includes pending trades also. To be sure the 1st (or any) trade is open you must add if(TradeIsOpen)...
