Cancel pending order

Here we'll look over the steps on how to cancel a limit, stop, or stop-limit order on the MetaTrader4 (MT4) / MetaTrader5 (MT5) app for Android and iOS mobile devices. After placing a limit/stop/stop-limit order, you can still cancel the order or change the price, take-profit (T/P), stop-loss (S/L), and expiration date, as long as the order hasn't been executed yet.
