How can I close a trade?

[Vejas04]

Hello,

order fulfilment works fine but I struggle to find a solution to closing a trade only using the order_code. Any suggestions?

I have the same problem. I would be very grateful if someone could point me towards a solution.

#I had to use the gettrades command to solve this problem.

add this code in API.py
def getTrades(self):
trade ={
"command": "getTrades",
"arguments": {
"openedOnly": True
}
}

    trade_json = json.dumps(trade)
    result = self.send(trade_json)
    result = json.loads(result)
    status = result["returnData"]
    return status

#here is an example to open and close a trade
#open the trade
status, order_code = API.make_Trade( symbol, order=0, transaction_type=0, cmd=0,volume=0.1)

trade=order_code
transaction= API.getTrades()

Search for the value in the list of dictionaries

for i, dict_ in enumerate(transaction):
if trade indict_.values():# The value was found in the dictionary index = i break else:# The value was not found in the list of dictionariesindex=None`

Print the index of the dictionary containing the value

print("The index of the dictionary containing the value is:", index)
r1=transaction[index]["order"]

#close the trade
status, order_code = API.make_Trade(symbol, transaction_type=2, cmd=0,volume=0.1, order=r1)
