Question

i want to code an EA that when open a Buy/Sell position with 60 point profit. if the position goes to -20 point profit then open a position In the opposite direction of first position with 60 point profit

the code is hear:

if(orderType==OP_BUY)
        ticket = OrderSend(Symbol(),orderType,lots,openPrice,5,stopLossPrice,takeProfitPrice,"AFKARIAUS ",MagicBuy,0,clrGreen);
if(orderType==OP_SELL)
        ticket = OrderSend(Symbol(),orderType,lots,openPrice,5,stopLossPrice,takeProfitPrice,"AFKARIAUS ",MagicSell,0,clrGreen);

for(int i=OrdersTotal()-1; i>=0; i--)
     {
      if(OrderSelect(i,SELECT_BY_POS,MODE_TRADES))
         if(OrderSymbol()==Symbol() && OrderMagicNumber()==MagicBuy && OrderType()==OP_BUY)
                BuyTicket=OrderSend(Symbol(),OP_SELLSTOP,lots,OrderOpenPrice()-20*Point,5,OrderOpenPrice()+60*Point,OrderOpenPrice()-20*Point-60*Point,"AFKARIAUS",MagicBuy+1,0,clrBlue);

         if(OrderSymbol()==Symbol() && OrderMagicNumber()==MagicSell && OrderType()==OP_SELL)
                  SellTicket=OrderSend(Symbol(),OP_BUYSTOP,lots,OrderOpenPrice()+20*Point,5,OrderOpenPrice()-60*Point,OrderOpenPrice()+20*Point+60*Point,"AFKARIAUS",MagicSell+1,0,clrBlue);
     }

A smart solution, that includes swap and commission is to do with that order:

1. OrderSelect

2. OrderSwap & OrderCommission (sum those)

    if (OrderSelect(ticket_number,SELECT_BY_TICKET,MODE_TRADES)==true)
    {
       current_trade_absolute_profit = OrderSwap() + OrderProfit() + OrderCommission();
    }
   

You can also find and store pip value like that:

double tick_value = MarketInfo(Symbol(),MODE_TICKVALUE);

Then calculate current pip prices and after that you can simply replace a double's value each time you earn more pips like that

   if (current_pip_number > highest_pip_number)
   {
       highest_pip_number = current_pip_number;
   }
   if (highest_pip_number < current_pip_number + 20)
   {
       OrderClose(ticket_number,lotsize,iClose(NULL,0,0),slippage,clrViolet);
   }
