Scaling-Out in Mql5

[morphtrade]

What's the best way to scale-out of position in Mql5? I prefer entering through 1 order and then scale-out through multiple targets

For eg.

Entry, Buy_Stop 2 lots at 1.2627

SL: 1.2584

TP1: 1.2647 - Exit 1st lot

TP2: 1.2667 - Exit 2nd lot

I also tried scaling-in by entering two orders with entry 1.2627 and different tp but it seems like that it moves all the tp to 1.2890. Here's the log:

Why "in MQL5"? I guess it doesn't depend on the programming language, but on the money management techniques that one uses.

I mean which method programatically using MtrTradeRequest or Trade.PositionClose. I currently use MtrTradeRequest which is not giving expected results as it moves all the tp to highest tp of 1.2667.

You should use method OrderOpen of class CTrade for placing pending orders instead of using multiple Take Profits. Don't forget to remove these ones if position closes.
