Dollar Cost Averaging

[Neal D Collenburg Jr]

Hi all, 

I'm trying to code a dollar cost averaging expert advisor. I have gotten to the point where it will "average" buy lower and move the average price down. However, what I would like to add is a means to remove the take profit if the lot size equals more than 1 contract and replace with limit orders above the current average price. I'm stumbling on that part and hoping someone could point me in a direction to help me. Thank you. Code attached.
