// профит в пунктах
 int getOrderProfit() {
  switch (OrderType()) {
  case OP_BUY:
    return (int)((Bid - OrderOpenPrice()) / Point);
  case OP_SELL:
    return (int)((OrderOpenPrice() - Ask) / Point);
  default: 
    return 0;
  }
}

It is mandatory to select an order (OrderSelect) before calling.

The close function is under what condition should an order be closed?

I did not notice the elephant))) What do you think the closing price of the open order is equal to?

OrderClose(min_ticket,OrderLots(),OrderClosePrice(),iSlippage,clrPink);

Try to do it this way

   int min_ticket=FindTicketOrder();

   if(OrderSelect(min_ticket, SELECT_BY_TICKET,MODE_TRADES)) 
    { 
      if(OrderProfit()<=-x)
        {
         if(OrderType()==OP_BUY)
           {
            if(OrderClose(min_ticket,OrderLots(),Bid,iSlippage,clrPink))
               Print("Buy Order Close");
            else
               Print("Order вернул ошибку - ",GetLastError());
           }
         if(OrderType()==OP_SELL)
           {
            if(OrderClose(min_ticket,OrderLots(),Ask,iSlippage,clrPink))
               Print("Sell Order Close");
            else
               Print("Order вернул ошибку - ",GetLastError());
           }
        }
    }

Bid symbol

Try it that way.

I've got it that way.

OrderClosePrice()

I read on the forum that you can specify it instead of bid and ask and it will work. I trusted it. I'm a naive fool. Tried another Bid || Ask, also did not work.
Thanks for the help!

Another question

How do you calculate the profit in points - is this OrderProfit * Point?

Another question

Is the profit calculation in pips an OrderProfit * Point?

OrderProfit Returns net profit value, (those in the deposit currency)
Point- Point size of the current instrument in the quote currency

All from reference

OrderProfit Returns the net profit value, (those in the deposit currency)
Point - Current instrument point size in the quote currency

All from reference

I agree, I read the reference.

I multiplied the profit by the Point and got 0.00001 or less.
