Remove TP from Buy order when sell stop activated

[Kevin Johnson]

Hello,

I've coded a basic MQL4 EA to open a BUY order and SELL STOP order at the same time.

I would like to know if it's possible to remove the TP from the BUY order once SELL STOP order is activated.

So below is the BUY order with TP 10 points...but I would like for the EA to set that TP to 0 once my SELL STOP is activated.

Check for the Sell Stop to be active. Set the Buy TP to zero. What's the problem?

It can be done simply like this. However, if you want to code professionally, the Magicnumber of both orders should be different. and if the sum of BUY and SELL is equal to 2, you can make TP zero.
