i tested it but it does behave as expected
in sql server there is a variable called @@trancount that is able to specify the number of open transaction (uncommitted)
but i can't find a way in postgres to give me the same behavior
Any way thank you

This worked for me
select count(*)
from pg_locks
where pid = pg_backend_pid()
and locktype in ('transactionid')
