Help needed with Asynchronous Close of positions
28 Feb 2025, 15:40

Hello there,

I am having trouble determining where the error “EntityNotFound” is coming from while using “ClosePositionAsync”. The positions are closing fine but the orders seem to be getting sent multiple times and so the subsequent requests are returning the entity not found error. How do I ensure the orders are only sent once? Below is a snippet of the related code:

    private void BulkOrderClose(TradeResult closeResult)
        {
            if (!(closeResult.IsSuccessful))
                Print(" >> Failed to close Order! Encountered Error - ", LastResult.Error);
        }

        protected void CloseMyTrades()
        {
            try
            {
                foreach (var position in Positions.Where(p => p.SymbolName == SymbolName))
                {
                    BookedProfit += position.NetProfit;
                    ClosePositionAsync(position,BulkOrderClose);
                }
            }
            catch (Exception e)
            {
                if (e != null)
                    Print("{0} ", e.StackTrace);
            }
        }

So the positions are closed fine, but this is what I get in the logs:

I appreciate the assistance, as I've searched this forum and can't find a different sample of how to use the async close method.

Thanks,

Why are you using “LastResult.Error” and not “closeResult.Error” in the “BulkOrderClose” method?

No particular reason. I just reused what I had working before trying out Async close. I have however modified the closing code and replaced “lastresult.error” with the following code but the problem still persists:


        protected void CloseMyTrades()
        {
            var positionsCOLLECTED = Positions.ToArray();

            foreach (var psnsCLTD in positionsCOLLECTED.Where(p => p.SymbolName == SymbolName))
            {
                ClosePositionAsync(psnsCLTD, (TradeResult r) =>
                {
                    if (r.IsSuccessful)
                        BookedProfit += psnsCLTD.NetProfit;
                    else if (!r.IsSuccessful)
                        Print(" >> Failed to close " + psnsCLTD.TradeType + " Order! Encountered Error - ", r.Error);
                }
                );
            }
        }

I still get the following in the output after successfully closing all trades:

11-03-2025 06:39:05.624 | Trade | → Closing position PID665350 (Volume: 18) SUCCEEDED

You're trying to read the profit of a closed position:

BookedProfit += psnsCLTD.NetProfit;

How can you read the profit of a position that no longer exists?

Thanks for pointing that out, but it doesn't seem to be the root cause for the error. I've modified code accordingly but still get the “EntityNotFound” errors:

protected void CloseMyTrades()
        {
            var positionsCOLLECTED = Positions.ToArray();

            foreach (var psnsCLTD in positionsCOLLECTED.Where(p => p.SymbolName == SymbolName))
            {
                double ClosedP = psnsCLTD.NetProfit;

                ClosePositionAsync(psnsCLTD, (TradeResult r) =>
                {
                    if (r.IsSuccessful)
                        BookedProfit += ClosedP;
                    else if (!r.IsSuccessful)
                        Print(" >> Failed to close Order! Encountered Error - ", r.Error);
                }
                );

Thanks for pointing that out, but it doesn't seem to be the root cause for the error. I've modified code accordingly but still get the “EntityNotFound” errors:

protected void CloseMyTrades()
        {
            var positionsCOLLECTED = Positions.ToArray();

            foreach (var psnsCLTD in positionsCOLLECTED.Where(p => p.SymbolName == SymbolName))
            {
                double ClosedP = psnsCLTD.NetProfit;

                ClosePositionAsync(psnsCLTD, (TradeResult r) =>
                {
                    if (r.IsSuccessful)
                        BookedProfit += ClosedP;
                    else if (!r.IsSuccessful)
                        Print(" >> Failed to close Order! Encountered Error - ", r.Error);
                }
                );
            }
        }

There's nothing wrong with that code as is unless “BookedProfit” isn't a double.

You haven't posted your entire code, so I suspect you have an event listener or something else happening elsewhere. If you want proof of this, create a test bot and just put in the code I have below.

For instance, in your “OnTick” or “OnBar” methods, do you actually check if the position exists before doing anything?

After all, when you tell the system to close the position async, the position might still be open when the next tick comes through, and your bot will then try to perform operations on it. But then the position gets closed halfway through, and it can no longer be found. Closing a position async doesn't guarantee an immediate close, or closure before the method exits.

//create a new bot. And just add these two methods. I bet you'll see your closing code works fine.
protected override void OnStart()
{
    ExecuteMarketOrder(TradeType.Buy, SymbolName, 1000);
    ExecuteMarketOrder(TradeType.Sell, SymbolName, 1000);
}

protected override void OnStop()
{
    double BookedProfit = 0;
    var positionsCOLLECTED = Positions.ToArray();

    foreach (var psnsCLTD in positionsCOLLECTED.Where(p => p.SymbolName == SymbolName))
    {
        double ClosedP = psnsCLTD.NetProfit;

        ClosePositionAsync(psnsCLTD, (TradeResult r) =>
        {
            if (r.IsSuccessful)
                BookedProfit += ClosedP;
            else if (!r.IsSuccessful)
                Print(" >> Failed to close Order! Encountered Error - ", r.Error);
        }
        );
    }
}

//When the above works fine for you too, that's evidence you are still trying to do things elsewhere in code you haven't shared that's operating on positions as you're closing them off.

Why are you using “LastResult.Error” and not “closeResult.Error” in the “BulkOrderClose” method?


        protected void CloseMyTrades()
        {
            var positionsCOLLECTED = Positions.ToArray();

            foreach (var psnsCLTD in positionsCOLLECTED.Where(p => p.SymbolName == SymbolName))
            {
                ClosePositionAsync(psnsCLTD, (TradeResult r) =>
                {
                    if (r.IsSuccessful)
                        BookedProfit += psnsCLTD.NetProfit;
                    else if (!r.IsSuccessful)
                        Print(" >> Failed to close " + psnsCLTD.TradeType + " Order! Encountered Error - ", r.Error);
                }
                );
            }
        }

I still get the following in the output after successfully closing all trades:

What am I missing?

Thanks.

You're trying to read the profit of a closed position:

BookedProfit += psnsCLTD.NetProfit;

How can you read the profit of a position that no longer exists?

Thanks for pointing that out, but it doesn't seem to be the root cause for the error. I've modified code accordingly but still get the “EntityNotFound” errors:

protected void CloseMyTrades()
        {
            var positionsCOLLECTED = Positions.ToArray();

            foreach (var psnsCLTD in positionsCOLLECTED.Where(p => p.SymbolName == SymbolName))
            {
                double ClosedP = psnsCLTD.NetProfit;

                ClosePositionAsync(psnsCLTD, (TradeResult r) =>
                {
                    if (r.IsSuccessful)
                        BookedProfit += ClosedP;
                    else if (!r.IsSuccessful)
                        Print(" >> Failed to close Order! Encountered Error - ", r.Error);
                }
                );
            }
        }

There's nothing wrong with that code as is unless “BookedProfit” isn't a double.

You haven't posted your entire code, so I suspect you have an event listener or something else happening elsewhere. If you want proof of this, create a test bot and just put in the code I have below.

For instance, in your “OnTick” or “OnBar” methods, do you actually check if the position exists before doing anything?

//create a new bot. And just add these two methods. I bet you'll see your closing code works fine.
protected override void OnStart()
{
    ExecuteMarketOrder(TradeType.Buy, SymbolName, 1000);
    ExecuteMarketOrder(TradeType.Sell, SymbolName, 1000);
}

protected override void OnStop()
{
    double BookedProfit = 0;
    var positionsCOLLECTED = Positions.ToArray();

    foreach (var psnsCLTD in positionsCOLLECTED.Where(p => p.SymbolName == SymbolName))
    {
        double ClosedP = psnsCLTD.NetProfit;

        ClosePositionAsync(psnsCLTD, (TradeResult r) =>
        {
            if (r.IsSuccessful)
                BookedProfit += ClosedP;
            else if (!r.IsSuccessful)
                Print(" >> Failed to close Order! Encountered Error - ", r.Error);
        }
        );
    }
}

//When the above works fine for you too, that's evidence you are still trying to do things elsewhere in code you haven't shared that's operating on positions as you're closing them off.

Thanks for the response. I already said it's working for me as well, but with errors, and I have my code in “OnTick” with multiple orders open at a time. After the positions get closed it appears that the Bot is trying to close them again multiple times afterwards, hence the errors popping up. Am wondering if I need to add some kind of delay after the Async command before proceeding. I have the same bot in mql5 and needed to add a “sleep” command after the Async close to combat similar problems, so am wondering if it's the same case here. The “BookedProfit” is indeed a double, and currently I have the bot working fine without errors, with the following sync close code:


        protected void CheckOpenOrders()
        {
            BuyLots = 0;
            SellLots = 0;
            MyTrades = 0;

            foreach (var position in Positions)
            {
                if (position.SymbolName == Symbol.Name)
                {
                    MyTrades++;
                    if (position.Label == "11")
                    {
                        if (position.TradeType == TradeType.Buy)
                        {
                            BuyLots += position.VolumeInUnits;
                        }
                        if (position.TradeType == TradeType.Sell)
                        {
                            SellLots += position.VolumeInUnits;
                        }
                    }
                }
            }
        }

        protected void CloseMyTrades()
        {
            int ReTryCount = 0;

            while (MyTrades > 0 && ReTryCount < 3)
            {
                var positionsCOLLECTED = Positions.ToArray();

                foreach (var psnsCLTD in positionsCOLLECTED.Where(p => p.SymbolName == SymbolName))
                {
                    double ClosedP = psnsCLTD.NetProfit;

                    var OrderClosed = ClosePosition(psnsCLTD);
                    if (OrderClosed.IsSuccessful)
                        BookedProfit += ClosedP;
                    else
                        Print(" >> Failed to close " + psnsCLTD.TradeType + " Order! Encountered Error - ", OrderClosed.Error);
                }
                ReTryCount++;
                CheckOpenOrders();
            }
            if (MyTrades > 0)
                Print(" >> Exception in Closing All Trades! ");
        }

I'm just not happy with the sync closing speed that is why am trying to change to async mode, but can't find an example on this forum that isn't throwing up “EntityNotFound” errors. For the sync close I have a “retry loop” and even when I add that loop to the async close, I still get the same errors shown below. The position closes but then multiple retries follow, and I don't know why. You can see the position ID is the same for “succeeded” and then followed by failed…

RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: Help needed with Asynchronous Close of positions

The same code I provided you doesn't throw “EntityNotFound” errors when I just ran it.

Are you able to modify the sample code I gave you to reproduce the issue?

I use ClosePositionAsync in all my bots and haven't had any problems.

All you did was just to initialize BookedProfit to zero in close function before closing all trades, all else stayed the same. Nevertheless I've used what you gave to create a new test bot and managed to reproduce the error. Try this out and see what you get. You start with 6 open positions and then you manually add 5 more to exceed 10, at which point the bot closes all then throws the error like before. See below…

RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: Help needed with Asynchronous Close of positions

I don't have to try your code. I can see right away you're doing what I said you would be doing, and you shouldn't be doing it.

You're running code in the OnTick event handler that still access the Positions object while you're in the process of closing the positions async. What makes you think all the positions are going to be closed by the time the next tick comes in?

In your OnTick you call CheckOpenOrders, which loops over the Positions.

So the code hits that loop, and is iterating over the objects, when suddenly some of the position objects have finally been closed by the server async. Thus, in the middle of the foreach loop, it expects to have positions it started iterating over, but they are no longer there, hence your errors.

So as I said in a previous response, you need to set a flag to indicate when you are closing positions. while the flag is true, you DO NOT iterate over the foreach loop (and any other part of code) that operates on the “Positions” object.

When all the positions have been closed async (which could take multiple ticks), then you set the “closingPositions” flag back to false, and now the bot can iterate your code as usual.

RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: RE: Help needed with Asynchronous Close of positions

Here's sample code you can run which avoids the issue. It's not perfect since I'm not in front of a compiler, but should work:

bool closingPositions;
int positionsClosed = 0;

protected override void OnStart()
{
    ExecuteMarketOrder(TradeType.Buy, SymbolName, 1000);
    ExecuteMarketOrder(TradeType.Sell, SymbolName, 1000);
    ExecuteMarketOrder(TradeType.Buy, SymbolName, 1000);
    ExecuteMarketOrder(TradeType.Sell, SymbolName, 1000);
    ExecuteMarketOrder(TradeType.Buy, SymbolName, 1000);
    ExecuteMarketOrder(TradeType.Sell, SymbolName, 1000);
    closingPositions = false;
    positionsClosed = 0;
}

protected override void OnTick()
{
    if (!closingPositions)
    {
        CheckOpenOrders();
        BasketControl();
    }
}
protected override void OnStop()
{
    CloseAll();
}
protected void CheckOpenOrders()
{
    BuyLots = 0;
    SellLots = 0;
    MyTrades = 0;

    foreach (var position in Positions)
    {
        if (position.SymbolName == Symbol.Name)
        {
            MyTrades++;
            if (position.TradeType == TradeType.Buy)
            {
                BuyLots += position.VolumeInUnits;
            }
            if (position.TradeType == TradeType.Sell)
            {
                SellLots += position.VolumeInUnits;
            }
        }
    }
}

protected void BasketControl()
{
    if (MyTrades > 5)
        CloseAll();
}

protected void CloseAll()
{
    double BookedProfit = 0;
    var positionsCOLLECTED = Positions.ToArray();

    closingPositions = true;
    foreach (var psnsCLTD in positionsCOLLECTED.Where(p => p.SymbolName == SymbolName))
    {
        double ClosedP = psnsCLTD.NetProfit;

        ClosePositionAsync(psnsCLTD, (TradeResult r) =>
        {
            if (r.IsSuccessful)
            {
                BookedProfit += ClosedP;
                positionsClosed += 1;
            }
            else if (!r.IsSuccessful)
                Print(" >> Failed to close Order! Encountered Error - ", r.Error);

            if (positionsClosed == positionsCOLLECTED.Length)
            {
                closingPositions = false;
                positionsClosed = 0;
            }
        }
        );
    }
}

Thanks for confirming my suspicions, as I knew I had to introduce some kind of delay after the async command but didn't know how to do it for the cBot. I've resolved this in MQL by “sleeping” a little while but when I replicate it here the sleep command doesn't work the same. I'll try your suggestion of the flag now that I'm sure what to look for. Thanks again.

Using the flag resolved the issue. Thanks a bunch!!!!
