Close all positions for the chart's symbol

[giogio1]

Hello,
what is the correct instruction to run on a NinjaTrader7 script to close all positions of the same symbol of the current Chart regardless of whether they were launched manually or with a strategy? Those of the actual account with the broker (or Market Replay if I am connected to it)
So if the Chart is ES 12-19 I want to close any open position ES 12-19 regardless of whom - or how they were opened it.

Similarly what's the best way to know if I have any open positions of the same symbol of my chart ES 12-19, those of the actual account with the broker (or Market Replay if I am connected to it).

And similarly what's the best way to cancel any order for the same symbol of my chart ES 12-19, those of the actual account with the broker.

Thank you.
Giogio

Hello giogio1,

Thank you for your note.

If you're not looking to do this programatically, just hitting the Close button in any chart will result in all pending orders being canceled and all existing positions being closed on the account/instrument combination that is selected. Any running strategies will be stopped and their positions exited and pending orders cancelled.

If you're looking to do this from NinjaScript, unfortunately that would not be supported in NinjaTrader 7. You would also not be able to detect manual orders on the account from within a strategy in a supported manner. However, NinjaTrader 8 would support this.

Please let us know if we may be of further assistance to you.

You cannot flatten all positions (manual and strategy) of a single symbol in NinjaTrader 7.

You can, however, flatten everything, regardless of symbol and mode of creation.
