4 digit, 5 digit brokers and Point

 

In MT4's MACD sample, there is:

extern double TakeProfit = 50;

which is used in the execution part later on in line 60

ticket=OrderSend(Symbol(),OP_BUY,Lots,Ask,3,0,Ask+TakeProfit*Point,"macd sample",16384,0,Green);

Is Point basically a multiplier?

In a 4 digit broker, that 50 = 50 pips for the TP?

And in a 5 digit broker, that 50 = 5 pips for the TP?

The MACD sample is written brokers didn't used '5 digit account'

EURUSD was written with 4 digits smallest pricechange a point was 0.0001

on 5 digit account we get point 0.00001
