CancelOrder on multiple contracts

I am working on a strategy that can be used with multiple contracts.
It is using limitorders and when they are not filled, a condition must cancel them.

The problem is: only one contract is cancelled, see below.

//Entering Trades
if (Contracts==2) {entryOrderLong = EnterLongLimit(0,true,1,BuyPrice1,"EL1");entryOrderLong = EnterLongLimit)0,true,1,BuyPrice1,"EL2");}

//Cancelorders
if (Position.MarketPosition == MarketPosition.Flat && entryOrderLong != null && Close[0]>=CancelPrice)
{
CancelOrder(entryOrderLong);
}

How do I get both contracts cancelled?

you can simply use
 
Code
CancelAllOrders(....)
alternatively for better management (i.e. not only for cancelling orders) i would prefer to have a list, like

in variables
 
Code
private List<IOrder> list = new List<IOrder>();

the trade managements
 
Code
IOrder order = EnterLong(....);
list.Add(order);
//enter the second order
order = EnterLong(...);
listAdd(order);

//cancellation logic

 
Code
for (int i = 0; i < list.Count; i++)
{
        if (condition)
        {
                CancelOrder(list[i])
         }
}

I am using the managed approach and CancelAllOrders does not exist.

I am not that good in programming to fix it the other way you mentioned.

Everything works with 1 contract but using 2 or 3 contracts only one is cancelled.

Is there a way to edit my own code to fix this?
