Pending (pending) 🕒

Utilities for working with pending orders. The group currently exposes:

  • pending list — list current pending orders with details (type, symbol, price, SL/TP, expiration).
  • See also: Pending.modify and Pending.move for editing/moving pendings.

ℹ️ If you only need ticket IDs, use the top‑level orders command (it prints tickets for both pendings and positions). The built‑in pending list here prints detailed rows, not tickets‑only.

Subcommand: pending list (ls)

Lists all current pending orders for the selected profile/account.

Input Parameters ⬇️

Parameter Type Required Description
--profile, -p string yes Profile from profiles.json.
--output, -o string no Output format: text (default) or json.
--timeout-ms int no RPC timeout in ms (default: 30000).

PowerShell shortcut in ps/shortcasts.ps1: pdls expands to mt5 pending list -p <profile> --timeout-ms 90000.

Output ⬆️

Text mode (preview up to 50 rows):

Pending orders (N):
#<ticket>  <type>  <symbol>  vol=<lots>  price=<p>  SL=<sl>  TP=<tp>  exp=<iso-or-–>
...

JSON mode:

  • Raw payload: array from OpenedOrdersData.PendingInfos (fields depend on your proto/build).

Notes & Safety

  • List may be empty if all orders were filled/expired.
  • For cancellation: use Cancel or Cancel_All.
  • For precise price shifts by points: Pending.move.

Method Signature

public Task<OpenedOrdersData> OpenedOrdersAsync(
    BMT5_ENUM_OPENED_ORDER_SORT_TYPE sortMode = BMT5_ENUM_OPENED_ORDER_SORT_TYPE.Bmt5OpenedOrderSortByOpenTimeAsc,
    DateTime? deadline = null,
    CancellationToken cancellationToken = default);

Proto reference

message OpenedOrdersData {
  repeated OpenedOrderInfo opened_orders = 1;
  repeated PositionInfo    position_infos = 2;
}

Code Reference 🧩

await ConnectAsync();

var opened   = await _mt5Account.OpenedOrdersAsync();
var pendings = opened.PendingInfos; // your build exposes this collection

if (IsJson(output))
{
    Console.WriteLine(ToJson(pendings));
}
else
{
    if (pendings.Count == 0) { Console.WriteLine("No pending orders."); return; }
    Console.WriteLine($"Pending orders ({pendings.Count}):");
    foreach (var p in pendings.Take(50))
        Console.WriteLine($"#{p.Ticket}  {p.Type}  {p.Symbol}  vol={p.Volume}  price={p.Price}  SL={p.StopLoss}  TP={p.TakeProfit}  exp={p.Expiration}");
}
