Or is there another method to respond to events mid bar, events such as when pending trades are opened or when open trades are closed?

Code: int MyTMF() { if(TradeIsPending and CancelOtherTrades == 1) return 1; if(TradeIsOpen) { CancelOtherTrades = 1; ThisTrade->manage = 0; // terminate the TMF } return 0; }
