                   { 
                     if(Bid == Open[0]-4*Point)
                        {OrderSend(Symbol(),OP_SELL,Lots,Bid,Slippage,Bid+StopLoss*Point,Bid-TakeProfit*Point,0);
                        }    
                        else
                           if(Ask == Open[0]+4*Point)
                              {OrderSend(Symbol(),OP_BUY,Lots,Ask,Slippage,Ask-StopLoss*Point,Ask+TakeProfit*Point,0);
                              }
                              
                    }
                       if(TrailingStop>0)
                        {                
                           if((OrderOpenPrice()-Ask)>(Point*TrailingStop))
                           {
                              if((OrderStopLoss()>(Ask+Point*TrailingStop)) || (OrderStopLoss()==0))
                              {
                                 OrderModify(OrderTicket(),OrderOpenPrice(),Ask+Point*TrailingStop,OrderTakeProfit(),0,Red);
                                 return(0);
                               }
                           }
                        }

Did you try the search?

[gordon]

 if (Hour()>=7.30&&Hour()<=18.30)
    {
    // ...

This won't work as you think it would... Hour() returns an int with possible values 0,1,2,...,23. You can't compare it to 7.30 (which is the double number 7.3) and expect the minutes to be magically considered...

if(Ask == Open[0]+5*Point)
{//8
OrderSend(Symbol(),OP_BUY,Lots,Ask,Slippage,Ask-StopLoss*Point,Ask+TakeProfit*Point,txComment,MagicNumber);
)//8

for example: block should be closed by character } and not by )

All errors are described by your compiler when you are using MetaEditor for development.
So my advice is to check errors decription returned by compiler.

if(Bid == Open[0]-4*Point){
   OrderSend(Symbol(), OP_SELL,Lots, Bid, Slippage, Bid+StopLoss*Point, Bid-TakeProfit*Point, 0);
}    

you can not compare doubles with == (except == 0) they will never be EXACTLY equal. you probably want

if(Bid >= Open[0]+5*Point)

Also, on a 5 digit broker a Pip is NOT a Point so the above is a 1/2 pip not 5 pips. You must adjust all constants

//++++ These are adjusted for 5 digit brokers.
double  pips2points,    // slippage  3 pips    3=points    30=points
        pips2dbl;       // Stoploss 15 pips    0.0015      0.00150
int     Digits.pips;    // DoubleToStr(dbl/pips2dbl, Digits.pips)
int init() {
    if (Digits == 5 || Digits == 3) {   // Adjust for five (5) digit brokers.
                pips2dbl    = Point*10; pips2points = 10;   Digits.pips = 1;
    } else {    pips2dbl    = Point;    pips2points =  1;   Digits.pips = 0; }
