I'd like to find orders closed because of merging into another order. Is there some 'sign' of this available in JForex API. I could not find it.

So .. the only way to identify merged orders I've found so far is to listen to onMessage and check if 'IMessage.getType()' is 'ORDERS_MERGE_OK'. But it seems there is no way to get that information for historic order

Hello. I found this https://www.dukascopy.com/client/javadoc3/com/dukascopy/api/IReportPosition.PositionType.html
and https://www.dukascopy.com/client/javadoc3/com/dukascopy/api/IReportPosition.html
but not works on historical tester, only on real data, real statement from live or demo.

public void onStart(IContext context) throws JFException {
        this.engine = context.getEngine();
        // ... and other stuf in here
 
        long to = System.currentTimeMillis();
        long from = to - 5 * Period.MONTHLY.getInterval(); // 5 months back
        
        for(IReportPosition p : context.getReportService().getOpenPositions()) {
            console.getOut().println( p );
        }
        
        for(IReportPosition m : context.getReportService().getClosedPositions(from, to)) {
            console.getOut().println( m.getPositionType() ); // here
        }
        
        context.stop();        
      
    }

Thanks, I did not notice that functionality. However it does not answer my question - I'm looking the answer for the question 'why the order was closed?'. That report answer the question 'why the order was created?' ...

Something like when system cut losses and opened hedge in "margin cut" mode and you want to get that information about why system opened hedge and merged position . I don't know how to get this, sorry.

Hello,

Unfortunately, JForex-API didn't provide this possibility "out of the box". But, depending on your task, there is some options. Merged orders have empty closeHistory list, maybe this sample will be helpful.

        List<IOrder> myOrders = history.getOrdersHistory(myInstrument, from, to);
        for (IOrder order : myOrders) {
            if (order.getCloseHistory().size() == 0) {
                mergedOrders.add(order);
            }
        }

in fact, you may get msg from onMessage when the order is merge, try to print those msg type, reason etc, you can get more information you want to know

Thanks - this seems to be workable solution. Unfortunately there is the bug in JForex where 'close history' is also empty for closed non-merged-out orders - it makes that approach not really reliable.
Hopefully it will be fixed sometime ...
