I changed an existing script to your needs. I never used it, but it seems to do what you want.
Please verify on demo account first, in case I made a booboo....

Script usage
now how do i get it to run automatically when my ea buys or sells??
You asked for scripts to adjust your manual entered trades.
A script is executed by drag and dropping it in the active trade window.
Scripts are different from experts in that they will not run continuously.
You are now however talking about "your EA having trades"
Your EA itself should take care of these settings and not an external script.
i didnt ask for a script to change manually entered trades, i said once i enter into a trade (which is what my ea will be doing) i need something to automatically set a SL or TP. reason being my ea is already compiled and i do not have the code for it, so i cant modify it. i thought it would be possible to have a script that executes everytime a buy or sell happens??? is this not possible?? do you have any other suggestions??? thanks.

Hmmm I don't want to argue but you started this thread with:
"hi i am looking for 2 scripts......."
OK, these scripts are still a valid option, however you need to apply them manually as soon as the trade is started.
It depends however how the Expert is coded, what it will do with these trades as soon as something else is modifying it's properties. But you can certainly give it a try on demo.
Another more appropriate solution is the EA made by Ryan Klefas called Swiss Army EA. This will do anything you like (except for pealing the potatoes...)
You can find the thread here:

Hope this will help.

The Swiss Army EA is an Expert which will manage open trades, continuously.
Have a look through the thread to see what it is capable of. I think you will like it.
