[steinberg123]

Hi, I am now trying to cancel my stoploss orders with CancelOrder(), but it can not cancel it and those stoploss order are still alive. the below link is methold with CancelOrder(), however, it can not work.the stoploss order is still in working status, if I change the stoploss price, it would be filled. the following is related code, it could print all the information

if (myEntryOrder != null)
{
Print($"Debug - Order Name: {myEntryOrder.Name}, State: {myEntryOrder.OrderState}");
Print($"Debug - Is Working: {myEntryOrder.OrderState == OrderState.Working}");
Print($"Debug - Is Accepted: {myEntryOrder.OrderState == OrderState.Accepted}");

bool shouldCancel = myEntryOrder.OrderState == OrderState.Working ||
myEntryOrder.OrderState == OrderState.Accepted;

Print($"Debug - Should cancel order: {shouldCancel}");

if (shouldCancel)
{
CancelOrder(myEntryOrder);
Print("cancel order 123");
}
}

Hello steinberg123,

Thank you for your post.

This code is showing some logic for cancelling the entry order - are you trying to cancel your entry order and then the associated stop loss, or only the stop loss order?

What kind of order are you using for your stop loss? An exit order, SetStopLoss()?

If using the unmanaged approach, have these orders been tied via OCO?

First, it is not to cancel the entry order but only the stop loss order. Secondly, it is just SetStopLoss(), but not an exit order. Of course, it is OCO linked with another profittarget order.

from Chatgpt, it seems that the SetStopLoss() can not be cancelled?？

Hello steinberg123,

Can you please provide that code you are using to cancel the stop loss order then? The code posted is for canceling the entry order.

Note that SetStopLoss() with SetProfitTarget() ties the entry to the exit, so canceling your stop loss order would also cancel your profit target because they are submitted as OCO.
