If you’ve been building your own Python trading bot using MetaTrader 5 as your interface, you’ll know that there are times when you need to get all your open orders.

If you need to implement this function, here’s how.

1. Make sure you’ve connected to MetaTrader 5

2. Use this code:

# Function to retrieve all open orders from MT5
def get_open_orders():
    orders = MetaTrader5.orders_get()
    order_array = []
    for order in orders:
        order_array.append(order[0])
    return order_array
