Find the biggest order and save its ticket to a variable.

Find again the biggest order with ticket != from that variable and save its ticket to a new variable.

Find again the biggest order with ticket != from that 2 variables.

You found the 3rd biggest order.

double BiggestProfit()          
 {
    double Profit = 0;
             
    for(int i = 0; i <= OrdersTotal(); i = i + 1)
     {
    if (OrderSelect(i, SELECT_BY_POS, MODE_TRADES))
     {
     if(OrderProfit() > Profit)
      {
      Profit         =  OrderProfit();
      BiggestTicket  =  OrderTicket();

    return(Profit);
 }

Now after the first run we have biggest profit and that order number is i. So we save i as biggest. 

So we run it again and skip this time with line 

if(i == biggest) 
continue; 

Then we get second 

Re run loop with line 

if(i== second || i == biggest)
continue;

Done. So we have loop 

int biggest, second, third;
//Equal them to 0

do 
Your_Function(&biggest, &second,&third)
while (third==0)

//This is just a logic idea and is not order to syntax wise I hope u see the solution. Though there better and faster ways
