I am new at this and tried the following from the book and don't know how to fix it. Can someone help please.

// The code should be used for educational purpose only.

//--------------------------------------------------------------------

int start() // Special function start()

{ // Opening BUY

OrderSend(Symbol(),OP_BUY,0.1,Ask,3,Bid-15*Point,Bid+15*Point);

Alert (GetLastError());

return; // Exit start()

}

int start()
  {

int dig = 1;

if (Digits == 5 || Digits == 3)
  dig = 10;   

int ticket = OrderSend(Symbol(),OP_BUY,0.1,Ask,3,0,0,NULL,1234,0,Blue);
if (ticket > -1)
   {
   OrderSelect(ticket, SELECT_BY_TICKET);
   bool retrn = OrderModify(OrderTicket(), OrderOpenPrice(), Bid-15*Point*dig, Bid+15*Point*dig, 0, Blue);
   if (retrn == false)
   Alert("OrderModify() error - ", (GetLastError()));
   }
else
   {
   Alert("OrderSend() error - ", (GetLastError()));

int dig = 1;

if (Digits == 5 || Digits == 3)
  dig = 10;   

How many times: For 5 digit brokers you must adjust TP, SL, and Slippage

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; }
    // OrderSend(... Slippage.Pips * pips2points, Bid - StopLossPips * pips2dbl
