Cancel all open orders for a symbol.
AI agents call cancel_all_orders to permanently remove resources in Bybit — typically in cleanup and lifecycle workflows. It does its job in a single call, and there is no undo.
Cancelling all open orders is irreversible — once cancelled, those orders are gone and must be manually re-entered. This can have significant financial impact if the orders were part of a trading strategy, and the action cannot be undone.
