This function can be used, for example, to determine the price level of TakeProfit of the last open position for the subsequent placing of a pending order at this level.
 
how about opening the "right" lot at the right time?
 
Can you tell me if there is any way to change the lot size of a pending order in MQL4?

No. You delete the old order and create a new one with the required volume.

The developers didn't do it deliberately - to avoid problems!

 

Please advise how to create graphical objects in an EA that trades on two currency pairs, which mark on each chart the opening and closing positions for each currency pair. An EA which is loaded on a single chart will automatically create these marks only on that chart. Maybe there is such a function designed to be used in multi-currency EAs ?

There is no such function. Objects can only be created and managed on the chart to which the EA is attached.

Is there a function that changes the take profit after some time has passed since the position was opened?
