Closing all open orders in MetaTrader 4 (MT4) is a crucial skill for traders who need to manage their positions efficiently, whether due to changing market conditions or for end-of-day account management. Here’s a detailed, step-by-step process for Windows users to close multiple orders on the MT4 platform. The process involves a script that automates closing all open positions.

Step 1: Access the Terminal Window

  • Action: Navigate to the top menu of the MT4 platform.
  • Purpose: To ensure the terminal window is open for managing trades.

Step 2: Locate the Terminal

  • Action: If the terminal is not visible, go to the “View” menu and select “Terminal.”
  • Purpose: This step opens the terminal window at the bottom, essential for managing orders and accessing scripts.

Step 3: Prepare to Add a Script

  • Action: Below your chart, prepare to add a script.
  • Purpose: Scripts automate trading actions, such as closing all open orders.

Step 4: Download the Close All script

Step 7: Activate Auto Trading

  • Action: Ensure the Auto Trading button at the platform’s top is turned on and showing green.
  • Purpose: The script won’t work unless auto trading is enabled, allowing scripts to execute trades automatically.

Step 8: Execute the Close All Order Script

  • Action: Right-click the “Close All Open Orders” script in the scripts menu and select “Execute on the chart.”
  • Purpose: This will close all open orders on your MT4 account in one action.

 

What is “close by” in MT4 Mobile?

The “Close By” operation in MT4 allows traders to close two opposite positions of the same financial instrument (close two hedged orders by canceling each other out). Only one will be left open if opposite positions have different lot values.

“Close by” rules:

  • When we close the hedge positions, the resulting volume will equal the difference between the lot values of the two positions.
  • The direction of the remaining position will be the same as that of a more significant position.
  • The trader pays the spread twice if the positions are closed separately.
  • During the “Close By” operation, the open price of the second position is used to close the first one, and the second position is closed at the open price of the first position.

 

Finally, I will summarize the Windows MT platform.
