Perhaps you should read the manual. Look on the right side of the image; I see Volume, Price, Stop Loss, Take Profit, etc.

Hello, 
I may have expressed myself badly. I would like to add a take profit instantly as soon as I click on the button (not manually)
 

Then add a trade management EA.

However, if you don't already know your SL, you can't compute your risk and thus your lot size.

  1. If you are worried about margin and leverage, you are not controlling your risk. Never risk more than a small percentage of your trading funds, certainly less than 2% per trade, 6% total.

    Risk depends on your initial stop loss, lot size, and the value of the symbol. It does not depend on margin and leverage. No SL means you have infinite risk.
    1. You place the stop where it needs to be — where the reason for the trade is no longer valid. E.g. trading a support bounce the stop goes below the support.
    2. AccountBalance * percent/100 = RISK = OrderLots * (|OrderOpenPrice - OrderStopLoss| * DeltaPerLot + CommissionPerLot) (Note OOP-OSL includes the spread, and DeltaPerLot is usually around $10/pip but it takes account of the exchange rates of the pair vs. your account currency.)
    3. Do NOT use TickValue by itself - DeltaPerLot and verify that MODE_TICKVALUE is returning a value in your deposit currency, as promised by the documentation, or whether it is returning a value in the instrument's base currency.

    4. You must normalize lots properly and check against min and max.
    5. You must also check FreeMargin to avoid stop out

    Most pairs are worth about $10 per PIP. A $5 risk with a (very small) 5 PIP SL is $5/$10/5 or 0.1 Lots maximum.

Use the Dom, and use the Buy-Sell buttons under the sl/tp area for entry/exit, they're the same as the large one-click buttons at the top left of your chart:
