Pip counter

 

Hi guys,i'm new to mql4 programming and i want to make a "sort of" martingale system.

Right now the code looks like this

void OnTick()

{if(OrdersTotal()==0)

  {OrderSend(

      _Symbol,             

      OP_BUY,                 

      0.01,              

     Ask,               

     3,            

   Ask-90000*Point,            

    Ask+90000*Point,          

    NULL,        

     0,             

     0,        

    clrRed

   );}

   if(OrdersTotal()==1){

   OrderSend(_Symbol,OP_SELL,0.01,Bid,3,Bid+90000*Point,Bid-90000*Point,NULL,0,0,clrGreen);}

   

}

 So,i don't know how to code the part in which after a set number amount of pips it opens a new position.
